Mulberry Silk Hair Tie – Slim 1cm or 1.5cm, 19 Momme (SB18)

Choose your silk hair tie by fabric volume, hair volume and hairstyle—not colour alone.

A discreet silk-covered hair tie available in 1 cm and 1.5 cm fabric widths for lower-bulk ponytails and half-up styles. The smooth mulberry silk outer provides a gentler contact surface than many uncovered elastics while the internal elastic supplies the hold.

A silk-covered hair tie may help reduce rough rubbing, snagging and visible creasing compared with some uncovered elastics, but it cannot eliminate tension, breakage or marks for every hair type. Avoid wrapping it excessively tightly.

Why choose SB18

• 19 momme silk fabric for a smooth, refined finish
• Slim silk-covered elastic hair tie
• Designed for fine hair, half-up styles, smaller ponytails and shoppers who want a subtle silk hair tie
• Clearly differentiated from the other slim, classic, oversized and multipack options in our collection

Material note: “100% mulberry silk” refers to the outer silk fabric. The elastic core, sewing thread and label are functional components and should not be assumed to be silk. Momme describes the weight of the silk fabric, not elastic strength.

Colours may appear different under various lighting conditions and on different screens. Small variations in gathering and finished shape are normal for a fabric-covered elastic accessory.

How to choose your option

Each option combines the width and colour, such as “1cm Black” or “1.5cm Champagne”. Each selected variant contains one hair tie.

The 1 cm option gives the most discreet profile; 1.5 cm adds slightly more visible silk. Neither width guarantees a particular number of wraps because fit depends on hair volume and elastic tension.

Choose SB16 when you want a classic scrunchie shape or SB17 for a fuller statement accessory.

How to wear it

1. Gather the hair without pulling tightly at the scalp or hairline.
2. Wrap the scrunchie only as many times as needed for a secure, comfortable hold.
3. For a looser bun, secure the style gently and adjust the fabric gathers after wrapping.
4. Remove by unwinding the scrunchie rather than pulling it down the length of the hair.

Can I sleep in a silk scrunchie?

It can be used for a loose overnight ponytail or bun if it feels comfortable. Avoid tight styles and stop using it if you notice pulling around the hairline or scalp. For more complete hair coverage, compare our mulberry silk hair bonnets; a mulberry silk pillowcase can provide a smoother sleep surface for hair outside the tie.

Care instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild silk-friendly detergent. Do not bleach, soak for long periods, scrub or wring. Press out excess water with a clean towel, reshape the fabric and air dry in the shade away from direct heat and sunlight. Make sure the elastic is fully dry before storage.

FAQ

Is the whole scrunchie made from silk?

The outer fabric is listed as 100% mulberry silk. The elastic core, thread and label are functional non-silk components.

Will it prevent hair breakage and ponytail creases?

The smooth outer surface is designed to reduce rough contact compared with many uncovered elastics, but no hair tie can guarantee zero breakage or creasing. Results depend on hair condition, how tightly it is wrapped and how long it is worn.

How many times will it wrap around my hair?

There is no single guaranteed number. It depends on the selected style, your hair volume, the hairstyle and natural variation in elastic tension.

What does momme mean?

Momme is a measure of silk fabric weight and density. It does not describe the size of the scrunchie or the strength of its elastic core.
