These are the latex bands from Woodpecker's. They are great and don't cut the hair like a rubber band would. They are about $10 for 1,000 bands. When you are ready to remove one from a top knot, be sure to cut it with tiny scissors rather than trying to unwind the band. This also cuts down on hair loss and/or damage. Store them in the refrigerator to prolong the shelf life of latex. Hope that this helps!
