Rubber band hairstyles seem to be trending these days. They are appropriate for any age group, hair type, and even hair length. This is a quick go-to hairstyle you can spice up for a casual or formal occasion.
To install this hairstyle, you will need a rubber band pack of your choice. You can choose black or colorful rubber band packs.
To have some fun with this hairstyle, you can switch up the arrangement of the rubber bands into a criss-cross pattern, twists, or whatever you fancy.
Is it bad to put a rubber band in your hair?
No, it's not bad. Most women with 4c hair will dip the rubber bands into some oil so that it's easier to take them off without causing breakage.
How do I get the elastics out of my hair?
Use a small pair of scissors or a special rubber band remover such as this one to cut out the rubber bands and be very careful to take them off. You don't want to rush this process, otherwise, you might end up with breakage.
