good bands in a cute pouch [SEP] updatethese bands are really stretchy and easy to put on they stretch enough that you can actually get your fingers in to make a ponytail i have not had any break yet but they do stretch out and get times as big once you have used them i do expect them to break after a few uses but i usually lose them after one use anyway they are not as resilient as the regular little black bands from the grocery store and they pull my hair a tiny bit more but they also stay in better they come in a cute little zipper bag with a slider which is so nice every single time i buy loose bands i end up losing most of them because the container they come in is useless this one is easy to open and close so i actually close it when i am done using it
