The Scrunchie – Made From Recycled Water Bottles

The Scrunchie – Made from Recycled Water Bottles

In case you like to tie your hair back when you work out, might we suggest a scrunchie? We make ours from the same recycled fabric as our bras and leggings to minimize scraps and reduce our waste. Wear them to work out, hang out, or maybe around your wrist cuz that’s a cute look.

Fit & Size:

If you’re one of those people who likes to tie your hair back when you work out, a scrunchie is obviously the way to go. They’re nice and easy, don’t leave a mark on your wrist, and generally just look great.
