| So much hair breakage with top knot bands I've been using lainee bands for a while now but recently I noticed so much hair breakage in Chloe's top knot Even when I would cut her band there would always be a little hair on the band. I decided to stop using them and use baby scrunchies because even with regular bands this happened. I really hope the breakage will stop now with the scrunchies. Anyone else use just baby scrunchies and not the bands? I noticed it makes a little "dent" in her hair, kind of like if you tie your own hair when it's wet.. but I feel at least the dent is better than breaking the hair.

| I use baby scrunchies on Evie most of the time and the bands just whenever we go somewhere or sometimes during the day.

| The bands would take out Khloe's hair too although I would cut them out. I prefer scrunchies. |

| Unfortunately, there really are no bands that will not take some hair off...you can wrap it in tissue paper or wrapping paper to prevent any breakage. Even then, if they rub on things, or scratch their head, or sniff outside in bushes, get spider web all over (loll), burrow in the blanket...all the everyday activities will cause breakage too. There's some sort of tape (not sticky) like band, but IDRemember what it's called...anyone?

| My Coton Angel has very fine, soft, breakable hair and bands just do not work for her. I go to the dollar store and buy clips like these. New Free Shipping 30pcs Fashion Mixed Colors Plastic Hair Clip Clamp 3A | eBay
