Question

My hair is shaved on the sides but long on top, any ideas on how I could rock a scrunchie?

Community Answer

Braid your hair in a Dutch style straight down the middle, and then tie it off with a scrunchie!

Question

What color suits black hair?

jas one

Community Answer

Basically, every colour suits black hair, but blues, turquoises and reds look great on dark hair. Use muted or pastel colours if you want.

Question

How many scrunchies should I wear? I see a lot of people wearing a lot, and some wear one.

Quinplayz 25

Community Answer

Depends. If you want a VSCO look, wear 3 or more. If you want to look normal wear one or two on your wrist. The last option is what most people do, including myself.

Question

I have short, black, thick and straight hair. Which scrunchie would look perfect?

Quinplayz 25

Community Answer

White, blue, red, turquoise, basically any vibrant, bright colors if you want something that will stand out against your hair. If you want a more toned-down look, try wearing lots of pastels and neutrals.

Question

What if you want to have a ‘Heathers’ inspired look and need the thick scrunchie?

Aditi

Community Answer

If you need a thick scrunchie, then get one suited to your budget or make one using an online tutorial. However, also own more subdued scrunchies for quieter days.

Huge and flashy scrunchies are actually pretty popular where I live. Do you think they are a good fashion choice?

Aditi

Sure! Have a mixture of flashy scrunchies and subdued scrunchies. Wear your subdued scrunchies with bright outfits and your flashy scrunchies with neutral outfits.

If i wear a scrunchie does that make me a VSCO girl?

Kiara

Community Answer

No, it doesn't. Not unless you are pairing it with a huge t-shirt, messy bun, short shorts and other scrunchies.

Question

What are some ways to look cool with scrunchies, but not wear them in my hair?

Community Answer

You could go for the "VSCO" approach and put them around your water bottle or wrist. You could also use one as an anklet.

Question

What do I do if my scrunchies don't stay in my hair?

HeatherKnowsHow

Community Answer

The best you can do is to tie your hair with a regular hair tie and put the scrunchie over it. It can be tucked into the regular elastic for extra hold, if needed.

Question

I have short hair. What hairstyle looks good with scrunchies?

Community Answer

Try pulling a section of your hair into a ponytail and leaving the rest loose. I've seen many girls do this at my middle school, and it's very pretty. You can even curl the ends of the loose part.

Question

My hair is black, and I'm trying to decide between navy and gray. Which color should I get?

Community Answer

Personally, I think gray would be the better one. Navy may be too dark, so it won't stand out against your hair.

Question

What color scrunchie would look good in brown hair?

Community Answer

Good colors for your hair include velvet red, white, light blue, peach, or any shade of green. Remember not to wear too dark colors because they will not show as well.

Are scrunchies still in style?

Community Answer

Yes, there are, they're just not as trendy as they were in 2018 or the 80's. However, they come in and out of style but are always a comfortable and good solution for your hair.

Question

What is a scrunchie?

Community Answer

It's a hair tie that is more thick and is stretchable than other hair ties. It is made from a fabric-covered elastic band. It's good for thick hair because it can be widened to fit. It also pulls a lot less than uncovered hair elastics.

Question

Is it trendy to wear more than one scrunchie in one's hair? Is it cool to wear them on the wrist?

Bridgett Weaver

Community Answer

It's cool to wear more than one if you're wearing pigtails but besides that, probably not. It is very cool to wear them on your wrists; people do it all the time.

Do I use a hair elastic with a scrunchie?

Bridgett Weaver

You can if you want to, but it isn't needed. Scrunchies stay in your hair by themselves.
