Above are more pictures of my Aug - Nov 2022 medium puffy* batch of scrunchies. While supplies last, some of the scrunchies pictured here are available on my upcycling form. You can also use the form to request that I make you a scrunchie out of a different fabric of your choice.

Here's a writeup of how I make scrunchies (including a link to the FREE pattern I use and info on where you can purchase biodegradable hair elastics for making scrunchies (or just wearing).)

Above are pictures of some of my "medium" scrunchies. "Medium" scrunchies hold the same amount of hair as my "large" scrunchies. The difference is that medium scrunchies are a bit less "puffy" than the large. Here's more information on fit and style:

Fit

My hair is thin-to-regular and straight. My scrunchies (both medium and large) fit me well — neither too tight nor too loose — - when I use them for a messy bun with two wraps. If you purchase a scrunchie and find that it fits you differently, I would love to hear from you so that I can expand this description to help more people know whether or not the scrunchie will work for their hair.

Style

Details about my size "medium" scrunchies: This scrunchie is, say, a 5 out of 10 on the "puffy scale." (The "puffy scale" is not a thing. I just made it up.)

Measured flat:

  • the width of the fabric (i.e. distance between the inner and outer edges of the scrunchie) is about 1.25."
  • the diameter of the scrunchie is about 3.75"
