no more hair ties

Everyone loves a good hair tie. It’s easy to use and—most of the time—conveniently located right on your wrist. A quick motion and the handy accessory can transform your hair into an effortless topknot. (See Justin Bieber’s recent Instagram while on vacation with Hailey Baldwin as evidence.) But let’s be honest, they’re not the most stylish of fashion statements.

From a Lucite ponytail holder to whimsical, emoji-inspired pins, here are seven alternatives to the boring elastic. Who’s with me?
