Scrunchies? Are they in again.

[sonlypuppyfat]

I had hundreds in the 80s and now DD says she wants some, are they fashionable again.

Prince Harry's ex girlfriend was wearing one at Glastonbury last week so I suspect they are.

I have no idea but how exciting! I had hundreds of homemade ones, in the same fabric as my homemade maxi skirts....

I've borrowed my mum's sewing machine and I think I'll run a few up for her. I used to think they were so pretty.

I have one, and I love it - adds a bit of bulk and interest to my hair when I put it up. Mine is from H&M.

I'm wearing one now, I always wear one, to put my hair in a lose bun. I had no idea they were 'in', that was entirely unintentional on my part.

Love the idea of matching them to long skirts! (I refuse to use the term maxi skirt).

Oops, need to get rid of the flag on my post

I used to make my own scrunchies from Liberty prints and would match them to the patches on my jeans. Ah, those were the days!

This got me to thinking when I was younger in the 80s how people used to try and have their own style now everyone seems to strive to look the same? Or is that because I'm old!

Lots of the girls wear them at gymnastics to match their leotards. I've never seen anybody wear out of gym, not lately.

I've never stopped wearing them.
I am completely oblivious to what is 'in' and 'out'

My daughter has a scrunchie in the same fabric as her school summer dress. I had no idea they went 'out' really. I have seen them cleverly made out of a school tie though at our school summer fayre!

DD also has loads from gym. She wears them a lot at home when it is hot.

Well I've bought elastic lets see how many I make.

I think they are 'in' if you are ironically hip. For women who are not, it's a look fraught with difficulties

ooo how do you make them?

I got a load in primark the other day for my little girl, very pretty. I wouldn't wear though.

Got all ready and stupid machine is playing up. I've made one by hand and DD seems pleased.

i never stopped wearing them but don't co ordinate with my skirts though!!! Scrunchies just hold my hair up loosely and off my face when needed. have a black and white spotted one on my wrist right now.....

Dd 14 came home from town with a pack, so I am assuming they must be

Everything comes back in!

The vintage nineties (!) look is all the rage with da kidz.

I like to think I'm down with the kids!

DD has nice gingham ones to match her summer school dresses. Bunches are very cute on 7 yo's too.

I've started wearing them of late - they are less damaging to hair than rubbery ponytail bands.

I have had the same one for years and years, it hangs on the door handle in my bathroom and is used for tying my hair back for face washing, teeth brushing and general mooching around the house as it's non damaging to my hair.

It has however never seen the outside world since 1994
