23 Different Ways to Wear a Scrunchie

The scrunchie is considered to be cute again! Here is everything that you need to know about styling a hair scrunchie this season.

Back from the depths of the 90’s but with better technology, the scrunchie is a style staple that goes from day to night. You can use it to stay cool in cut offs and a swimsuit. Or wear it with a pantsuit or cocktail dress to accessorize and keep the hair out of your face.

When shopping for a new scrunchie, keep in mind that it is one of the easiest things to sew ever. It’s basically a piece of elastic with cloth scrunched around it. It’s pretty much the same thing every time. So if someone offers to sell you a scrunchie for over $100 don’t fall for it!
