I use those metalless bands. I really like the Vidal Sassoon ones that
don't have any metal or glue and they're not too tight. Scrunchies are
probably safer because they don't have any rough parts or metal parts.

| I used to use the pony tail holders with metal until a girl I worked with told me they would wreck my hair :(So now I use those snag free elastic bands. The ones that look like rubber bands, but aren't :) Theyre so small I can carry them in my purse. I actually wrap them around my ID when I go to a out cuz I don't want to have to fumble around in my bag. At home though, I just use a big fabric scrunchie. You know, the kind that you make out of material and some elastic? Heheh :) |

they are tearing down the old gold souq to build another Gold and
Diamond Park!!!! Cookies'n'cream- Oh my gosh! I can't believe you know who Elissa is!! She's like one of the only Arabic singers that I know about, so she's pretty darn big out here! She's even in a Pepsi commercial:) |
