Over the years, ponytail holders haven't evolved much. They're basically just single pieces of elastic, but where would we be without them, especially on bad hair days? The scrunchie, though, was innovative for its time, and despite its waning popularity a few years ago, they are still on the market and are popular for good reason.
Scrunchies are soft, fabric-covered elastics that give ponytails a bit of extra oomph, which is why they were so popular in the "big hair" '80s. When used as a base for a bun, instead of a traditional elastic ponytail holder, they won't give you a headache or damage your hair.
