Invisibobble

Time to say goodbye to kinks, headaches split ends and soaking wet hair ties! This knight in spiral armor puts an end to all problems you`ve had tying up your hair. The magic trick to invisibobble’s® traceless outcome lies in its peculiar telephone cord shape. Wrapped around the hair, the invisibobble® places uneven pressure around the ponytail, allowing it to be held strongly without being too tight. This gives individual hairs more space within the ponytail and leads to a traceless result.

Created with artificial resin, invisibobble® is perfect for outdoor activities and poolside parties as it does not collect moisture. Take a dip and easily remove invisibobble from your wet hair with absolutely no pulling.
