00:00Ok so I went digging through the budget hair tie aisle and found some genuinely cute stuff that
00:04all sits under 3 bucks, well, most of it. Links to everything are in the description if you want
00:09to jump straight there. First up, the braided wig ponytail headband, one piece, $3.19, and I think
00:17it's the closest thing to a fake hairstyle you'll find for this money. It looks like a little braided
00:22ponytail that you just clip and go. My cousin wore one to school for a whole week and nobody asked
00:28where she got her hair done. It's rubber, so it grips without slipping, and one piece means it's
00:33also a travel size emergency backup in a bag. Next is the solid color baby headband bow, you can get
00:391, 3, 4, or 6 pieces for $3.28, which honestly makes the multi-pack the smarter buy because then
00:46you're
00:46not doing laundry on a single headband. It's elastic nylon wrapped in that soft turban style fabric,
00:52so there's zero scratchy plastic against a baby's head. That soft lining is the whole point,
00:58because a lot of cheap headbands leave a red mark on the soft skin around their ears.
01:03Now the flower style set for $1.76, 20 pieces of little floral hair rings and elastics,
01:09and this is the one that surprised me most. 20 for under 2 bucks means you can actually do matching
01:15sets for the whole birthday party table. They double as a headband, a hair ring, a little headdress,
01:21whatever the kid decides that morning. Kids change their mind every 4 minutes,
01:26so having variety in the cheapest possible box is just smart.
01:30The soft elastic hair tie set 20, 50, or 100 pieces, $3.17.
01:36This is the workhorse. Nothing fancy, just soft elastics in a bunch of colors that do ponytails,
01:43pigtails, little buns, all of it. My honest note is the rating is 4.7, not 4.9, and I
01:49think that's
01:50because a hundred-piece bag can have a couple of loosey ones in there. Still, if you're outfitting
01:55a class or a dance team, one bag beats buying three packs at checkout every single time.
02:00Last one, and I need to be straight with you about this, the thousand-piece set of colorful
02:04rubber scrunchies is $4.32. That's over three bucks, so it doesn't technically make the cut,
02:11but here's why I'd still link it. A thousand scrunchies for $4 is roughly a third of a penny each.
02:18If you run a daycare, a dance studio, or a family with multiple kids,
02:22that bag alone replaces years of buying elastics one at a time.
02:26Alright, that's the list. Every link is waiting in the description and if this saved you a trip
