Review title is Holds very well but pulls out your hair [SEP] I have pretty thick hair so I was tired of using rubber bands that just strateched out of shape after a few uses. This elastic definietly keep my pony tail tight all day long. I usually redo the pony before bed and its still pretty solid in the morning. The one HUGE down side is that it breaks and rips out a lot of my hair every time i take it out. :(  Found these at Kroger for $4
