They are designed to be kind to your Barnet and don\u2019t snag or rip your hair when using them. Having such long hair I can be pretty tough on my bobbles so I have been surprised that after a few months of using them, none have snapped \u00a0\u2013 pretty nifty eh?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/popbands-betty.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2650\" alt=\"popbands betty\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/popbands-betty.jpg?resize=598%2C897\" width=\"598\" height=\"897\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/popbands-betty.jpg?resize=598%2C897 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/popbands-betty.jpg?resize=768%2C1152 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/popbands-betty.jpg?w=800 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Being the colour lover that I am I went for the bright mulitpack of 5 Popbands to get me started. \u00a0I was told that they didn\u2019t leave your hair all kinky like your bog standard elastic, but after put into practise this isnt entirely true. Yes, the dents are dramatically reduced although not kinkless as what it says on the erm\u2026packet but I\u2019m happy with the reduction. \u00a0My one little gripe?
