Upcycled Sari Silk Hair Tie | Handmade Knot Hair Band

A Handmade Hair Tie With a Story -- Salon-Selected

The Upcycled Sari Silk Hair Tie is a soft, fabric-wrapped knot band made from vintage sari silk that would otherwise have gone to waste. Each one is assorted, so the print and color combination you receive is genuinely one of a kind -- a small, wearable piece of slow, sustainable craft rather than another mass-produced elastic.

Beyond the look, silk is kind to hair. The smooth, soft surface slides against the strand instead of gripping and snapping it the way a tight rubber band does, which means less breakage and far less of that sharp crease you get when you take a ponytail down. It is a gentler way to tie hair back, day or night.

Use it for a relaxed ponytail or bun, loop it around a topknot, or wear it on your wrist as a soft bracelet between styles. The boho print adds color to the simplest look.

Material: Upcycled vintage sari silk over elastic | Each: Assorted, one of a kind | Benefit: Gentle, low-crease hold

How to Wear a Sari Silk Hair Tie

Wrap it around a ponytail or bun two or three times for a soft, secure hold that will not dig in. For a finished look, smooth any flyaways at your hairline and along the ponytail with the Hair Finishing Stick -- the tie holds the length while the stick polishes the fine pieces. Layer it with a soft scrunchie for extra volume, and explore more handmade accessories in our full hair collection.
