I have had short hair for a major portion of my life. My mother thought it would be easier for me to take care of short hair when I went away to Girl Scout camp in 1979 and that started my long career in short hair. (There was junior year in college when I briefly grew it out, but I looked like I had a wig on.)
A few years back, I decided I needed a change, grew my locks out, and now, I have shoulder-length hair. What I didn't realize is that I missed YEARS of fun hair accessories! Granted, we should have all skipped the 'scrunchie' years, but there are some great accessories out there.
With my hair ready for ponytail action, I approached a friend one day last year to ask about her oh-so-cute-but-simple hair elastic. It was a neutral color and had a knot in it, with the ends of the elastic sticking out about a 1/2".

The next time I found myself at Bella Sante, I purchased one 5-pack of the 'pearl' hair ties.

But, as it turns out, people are still trying to figure out where to buy these. When I wear one, I usually have someone ask me where I got it. In fact, it happened again last week. Therefore, this post, and a mini-list of where to get these delightful hair ties since they are not widely available in retail stores. Nordstrom carries a 3-pack of classic colors for $6.50. Amazon has a large selection of the 5-pack sets, $10.99 each. Bella Sante spas carry them in the Boston area. The Wellesley outpost had this selection on their counter last week. Aren't the animal print ones fun!?
