Why Kids Hair Ties Matter (And What Makes TIY Different)

If you’re a parent, you know the struggle: finding hair ties that actually work for your child’s hair without pulling, breaking, or disappearing after one use. Most kids’ hair ties are either too tight, too loose, or too harsh on young strands. That’s where TIY comes in.

At TIY, we believe the right hair tie can make a big difference — especially for kids.

Why Traditional Kids Hair Ties Fall Short

Let’s face it: most store-bought kids hair ties aren’t built to last. They either stretch out too fast, snap mid-pigtail, or tug too tightly on the scalp. Even worse? Many are made with low-quality materials that can cause breakage, pain, and those dreaded post-ponytail dents.

For kids with textured, thick, or curly hair, the problem only gets trickier. Finding a gentle, secure hair tie that stays putwithout causing tension or damage shouldn’t be this hard.

What Makes TIY the Best Hair Tie for Kids?

TIY was created with all hair types in mind — including the littlest locks. Whether your child has straight strands, bouncy curls, or baby-fine hair, our customizable design ensures a perfect fit every time.

Here’s why parents love TIY for their kids:

• Custom Looping: Loop it once, twice, three times — whatever works for your child’s hair volume and texture.

• Hair-Safe Materials: TIY hair ties are made from premium elastic and a gentle outer sheath, meaning no more pulling, snapping, or frizz.

• Durable Design: One tie lasts for months — not minutes. No more buying bulk packs just to toss half in the trash.

• No More Dents or Tears: Kids can go from playtime to nap time without hair drama.

Kid-Tested, Parent-Approved

We hear it all the time from moms, dads, and caregivers: once they try TIY for their kids, they never go back. Whether it’s for school days, soccer practice, or dress-up play, TIY hair ties keep your kid’s hair secure and protected.

And bonus — they’re cute, too. Choose from a range of vibrant colors your kids will love (and won’t lose quite as easily).
