Satin vs Cotton Scrunchies: Which Is Better for Your Hair?

Not all hair ties are created equal. If you’re still using cotton elastics, it’s time to switch teams. Let’s break down why satin wins every time.

1️⃣ Friction Factor

Cotton grabs your strands; satin glides over them, reducing breakage and snags.

2️⃣ Moisture Retention

Satin helps hair retain natural oils, keeping ends soft and hydrated.

3️⃣ Aesthetic & Comfort

Satin adds shine and luxury to every ponytail — plus no annoying dents after you take it out.

4️⃣ Best for All Textures

From fine to coily hair, satin scrunchies work with your texture not against it.
