Packs of Organic Cotton Hair Ties
These organic cotton hair ties (also in black and multi-colour pack) are ideal alternatives to elastic bands, which often get caught around the feet of hedgehogs if littered (or fed to chicks by ducks, thinking they are worms).
Conventional hair ties are made from nylon, which again does not biodegrade if falling down storm drains, and going out to sea. Billions are lost each year, falling off ponytails (like children doing handstands) or off wrists.
Littered elastic bands also get get caught around hedgehog legs (or ducks feed them to chicks, thinking they are worms).
This is why wildlife campaigners want the Post Office to use paper belly bands, over elastic bands for holding letters together.
One man who found an elastic band in his cat’s litter tray wants the Post Office (not the postie) to get fined £80 for littering elastic bands, just like everyone else.
These hair ties are made from organic cotton and natural rubber, sold in packs of 6. Free from plastic and metal, these biodegrade after use (unlike plastic hair ties). Good for all hair types, the organic cotton is strong enough for thick hair, but soft enough not to cause headaches.
They also don’t leave dents or deformations in hair, unlike elastic bands. The natural pack contains 2 each of brown, cream and black. Sold in zero waste packaging. Made fairly in India, products are shipped by sea. A portion from each sale is donated to Marine Conservation Society.
