Why Finding the Right Hair Tie for Thick Hair Matters

If you’ve ever tried to wrangle thick hair into a ponytail, you know the struggle. Most hair ties either snap on the first stretch, slip halfway through your workout, or leave painful dents when you finally take them out. That’s because traditional elastics were never designed with thicker hair in mind.

At TIY, we believe hair ties should do more than just hold your hair back—they should support your style, your workouts, and your everyday life. That’s why we created hair ties built for thick hair (and every other type too).

The Struggle with Regular Hair Ties

• They break when stretched too far.

• They slip out of high-volume hair.

• They cause damage, tugging or snapping strands.

If you’ve got thick hair, you’ve probably carried extra ties around, knowing at least one would give out. TIY changes that.

What Makes TIY Hair Ties Different

TIY hair ties are designed to handle it all—whether you’re hitting practice, running errands, or dressing up for the day. They’re:

• Custom-fit: Adjust them once, and they stay perfect for your hair type.

• Durable: They won’t stretch thin or snap, no matter how thick your ponytail.

• Comfortable: Strong hold, without the pain or breakage.

Simply put, these are the best hair ties for thick hair because they’re made to last through the toughest workouts and the longest days.

Hairstyles That Actually Stay Put

With thick hair, certain styles feel impossible. Here are a few that work best with TIY:

• High ponytail – Sleek, secure, and bounce-proof.

• Messy bun – Holds volume without slipping.

• Braided pony – Keeps heavy hair controlled and stylish.

Beyond Thick Hair

Even if your hair is fine, curly, or somewhere in between, TIY adapts to your texture. That’s the beauty of a tie you build to your fit—it doesn’t stretch out, it grows with you.
