Is It Bad to Wear a Hair Tie on Your Wrist? A Mum's Honest Guide
Is it bad to wear a hair tie on your wrist? Yes, and here's what mums of teen and young adult daughters need to know. Why your daughter does it,...

Made for daily wear. Available in Gold, Silver, and Rose Gold.

Choose your colour -
Gold Hair Tie Bangle - 18k gold plated for the warmth of solid gold at a fraction of the price. The PVD finish is 10x more durable than standard gold plating, so it won't tarnish or fade.
Silver Hair Tie Bangle - Highly polished high grade stainless steel core. Harder than sterling silver, so it keeps its shape and resists dents. Stays bright and tarnish-free through years of daily wear, no polishing needed.
Rose Gold Hair Tie Bangle - 18k rose-gold PVD over stainless steel. A soft blush tone that flatters every skin tone and keeps its colour for years, no fading, no green marks.

Wondering if a hair tie bangle is right for you? Read why hair elastics on your wrist can cause damage and use our size guide to find your perfect fit before you order.
How do I know what size I am?
Visit our Bangle Size Guide for measuring instructions. It's important to measure and not assume your size, as everyone's wrist is different.
What if my bangle is the wrong size?
Don't sweat it. If your bangle size isn't right, you can exchange it within 14 days of purchase. Visit our Returns and Exchange page for more information.
What are your bangles made from?
All three colours are built on a polished stainless steel base. The Gold and Rose Gold bangles are 18k gold plated using a PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating. The Silver bangle is left as polished stainless steel, branded as Stainless Silver.
The PVD coating process is ten times stronger than standard gold or silver plating, the same process luxury watch brands like Rolex and Cartier use. It makes every Gypsea Loop bangle hypoallergenic, 100% waterproof, sweat-proof, tarnish-proof, and nickel-free.
Won't the bangle stretch out the hair tie?
Not really. The bangle is oval-shaped to follow the natural curve of your wrist, so the hair tie sits gently in the groove instead of being stretched flat. Our Gypsea hair ties are made to pair with the bangle and customers report them lasting months. Mixing and matching colours daily means each one lasts even longer.
Can I wear it in the shower or at the beach?
Yes. The PVD coating makes the bangle 100% waterproof and sweat-proof. Wear it in the shower, the pool, the ocean, or the gym.
Will the colour fade or tarnish?
No. The PVD coating is engineered to stay true. Your bangle keeps its original colour and shine through years of daily wear.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. Stainless steel and PVD-coated bangles are hypoallergenic and nickel-free. Suitable for sensitive skin, eczema, and people who react to most jewellery.
Can I buy as a gift if I don't know their size?
Yes, two options. Grab a Gypsea Loop Gift Card so they can pick their own size and colour. Or do some sneaky measuring (or ask a relative to do it for you). Check our Bangle Size Guide for measuring tips, and remember we offer a 14-day exchange if the size is not right.
How do I look after my Bangle?
Wipe with a soft cloth if needed. No polishing required. If it ever wants a deeper clean, mild soap and warm water is fine. The PVD coating won't scratch or wear off under normal use.
