Tips

  • Hair Ty is tugging & sliding in my hair - Tighten your ponytail!!   The key to a secure hair ty is a tight ponytail.  We recommend using a coated ponytail holder (included).  Do not use a scruncie or a terry cloth ponytail holder.  They slide too easily.  The ponytail is supporting the hair ty!! 
  • Barrette doesn't close - We use a steel barrette as opposed to nickel or cheap metal.  However, if your barrette will not close, you either have too much hair in it or you have squeezed the prongs closed.  There are two prongs that stick up from the barrette.  When you open the barrette, you do not have to press the buttons very hard.  Simply pop them open!  If you press too hard, you will close the prongs on the barrette, not allowing it to catch and close.  If this happens, take your thumbs, one on each button, and spread the prongs apart so they are barely touching each other.  Nine out of ten times, this is the easy fix!!
  • Riveted Hair Tys - This is a very lightweight design!   We recommended this style for those who may be sensitive to weight or prefer a simple design!! 
  • Beaded Hair Tys - Our beaded hair tys are designed to weight your hair down as you ride.  They carry enough weight to prevent your hair or the hair ty, from flying around. There are patterns that are lighter than others.  If you are sensitive to weight or get headaches very easily, you may want to try one of these styles!  The crystal hearts, style #'s 1002 or 1019, the riveted patterns, style #'s 1016 or 1017 or the Trail Bead Patterns, style #'s 1027 and 1040.  The Antique Beaded patterns will be a bit heavier then others. 
  • Hawg-Tyd "V" Tubes - This is a unisex design!  Our tubes can be worn by anyone who can make a ponytail, regardless of hair length.  Most popular style for men!
  • Hawg-Tyd Hair Tubes - This is also a unisex design.  It features a full coverage tube that can be cut to length.  It snaps all the way down the back of the ponytail!
