Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Twistee Magnetic Hair Ties for Thick, Loc’d & Textured Hair
-
The Twistee Magnetic Hair Tie is designed specifically for thick, textured, coily, and loc’d hair — the types that regular elastics can’t hold securely. Its smooth silicone band and magnetic closure click into place for a strong, flexible hold without pulling, snagging, or breaking your hair.
-
Twistee is intentionally made for thick, coily, kinky, and loc’d textures. It may not hold securely on fine or straight hair because its magnetic tension system is optimized for denser strands. Our goal is to serve those who need a stronger, gentler alternative to traditional hair ties.
-
Yes! Twistee was created with 4B–4C hair in mind. It grips comfortably around coils and kinks without pulling or breaking, giving a secure, no-damage hold for puffs, buns, or ponytails.
-
Absolutely. Twistee is built to handle heavy, waist-length locs, braids, and twists. Its magnetic clasp and silicone band provide flexible tension that holds firm all day without slipping or damaging your hair.
-
No. Twistee was created to eliminate the pain, pulling, and breakage caused by traditional hair ties. Its flexible silicone band and magnetic design distribute pressure evenly, preventing tightness and scalp tension. Twistee is also extremely stretchy, giving you full control over how tight or loose you want your style to be — whether you’re securing thick locs, a puff, or a ponytail. You can adjust it for a gentle hold or extra firmness without ever sacrificing comfort.
-
For a Puff:
Place the Twistee around the base of your hairline.
Gently slide it upward from the back toward the middle of your head.
Bring the ends of the Twistee to the front and connect the magnets securely.
Slide the connected magnets to the middle of your head.
✨ Voilà — a perfect puff with no tension, no snagging, and no hassle!
For a Ponytail:
Place the Twistee at the base of your hairline.
Slide it toward the middle of your head.
Bring the ends of the Twistee to the front and crisscross them over each other, switching hands as you go. Repeat until you reach your desired hold.
Connect the magnets securely.
To Remove:
Gently disconnect the magnets and untwist the hair tie. If it feels snug, lightly tug the sides of your hair to create space before removing. -
Yes. Twistee is made from 100% silicone, making it waterproof, sweat-resistant, and easy to clean. It stays secure during workouts, swimming, or everyday activities.
-
Rinse it with warm water and mild soap, then let it air dry. Because it’s made of silicone, it won’t absorb oil, sweat, or product buildup.
-
Definitely. Twistee can be paired with our decorative magnetic ornaments to match your mood or outfit. It’s designed to be both functional and fashionable.
-
Twistee’s magnets are securely enclosed within the silicone band and do not detach during normal use. However, like all small magnetic products, they can be dangerous if swallowed or inhaled. Always keep Twistee away from young children and pets when not in use, and supervise use by children.
💡 If a magnet is ever swallowed, seek immediate medical attention. Even a single magnet can cause harm if ingested.

With regular use and care, your Twistee can last several months or longer. The silicone retains its flexibility and shape better than traditional hair ties that stretch or snap over time.

Not if you remove it properly. The Twistee Magnetic Hair Tie is made from smooth, flexible silicone that glides easily through thick, coily, and loc’d hair without snagging. If you’ve wrapped it several times — even up to five — it might feel snug when you remove it, but there’s an easy solution. Gently tug on the sides of your hair to loosen the tie, then separate the magnets to release it. If it still feels secure, repeat once or twice. Twistee will untwist out smoothly without pulling or breaking a single strand.
