If you told me a year ago that hair scrunchies would be trending in 2017, I would have laughed. However, just like mom jeans and chokers, scrunchies have in fact resurfaced. And guess what? I don’t hate ’em.

In fact, I picked up a few scrunchies last month and ending up liking—and wearing—them way more than my trusty black Goody hair ties. All the fabrics, colors and patterns are a fun way to switch things up! (Also, there’s none of this nonsense.)

If you want to give scrunchies a second chance, too, we’ve got you covered. We’re sharing our favorite scrunchie picks, plus our best tips on how to wear scrunchies. Scroll down to see what we’re talking about.
