Hair extension scrunchies and ponytails

What is a hair extension scrunchie?

A hair extension scrunchie is a hair tie with hair attached that you wrap around your own bun. In under a minute you get a full messy bun or an elegant updo – no tape, no glue, no salon visit. It is also known as a messy bun scrunchie or a messy bun hair piece.

Which hair extension scrunchie should I choose?
Which ponytail extension should I choose?
  • Tangled Ponyo – 35 cm curly hair, 90 g, with a claw clip. For a long, full ponytail.
  • Tangled Mini Ponyo – 21 cm, 55 g, with a clip and a built-in net that hides your own hair. For a natural everyday look.
How do I put on a hair extension scrunchie?
  1. Put your hair up in a small, tight bun.
  2. Slide the scrunchie over the bun and wrap it around twice if you can.
  3. Fluff out the hair so your own hair is completely covered.
  4. If you have fine or thin hair: secure it with a couple of hairpins and it will stay put all day.
How do I put on a ponytail extension?

Make a secure ponytail, twist it into a small bun and clip Ponyo or Mini Ponyo over the bun. Wrap a thin strand of hair around the base to hide it. You'll find step-by-step instructions in our guide to ponytail extensions.

Do scrunchies and ponytail extensions work on thin hair?

Yes. They are made to add volume and fullness, so they work on all hair types – including fine, thin and short hair. All you need is enough hair to gather into a small bun or ponytail.

Do I need to style them?

No, they come ready-styled. For a messier look, fluff them up with your fingers; for a smoother look, brush them gently.

Is the hair real or synthetic?

All our scrunchies and ponytails are made of vegan synthetic fibre that keeps its shape and curls, even after washing. Tangled Tape Extensions are made of 100% Remy human hair.

Can I curl, straighten or dye my scrunchie or ponytail?

Yes, you can curl and straighten it. The fibre tolerates heat up to 160 °C, so use a curling iron or straightener on a low setting. It can't be dyed or bleached, but hair mascara for a subtle colour shift is fine to use.

How long does a hair extension scrunchie last?

Tangled Scrunchie and Straight Scrunchie last about 3 months with regular use. With gentle brushing and the right washing routine, they last even longer.

Tape-in extensions

What are tape-in extensions?

Tape-in extensions are wefts of hair with a thin, flat tape that are applied in pairs around your own hair and stay in for several weeks. Tangled Tape Extensions are 100% Remy human hair, 50 cm long. One pack contains 50 grams spread across 20 pre-taped pieces.

How many packs of tape-in extensions do I need?
  • 1 pack: extra thickness
  • 2 packs: length for fine to normal hair
  • 3 packs: length for normal to thick hair
  • 4 packs: length for thick hair
How long do tape-in extensions last?

The tapes are moved up every 6–8 weeks as your own hair grows. The hair can be reused with new tape.

Can I curl and straighten tape-in extensions?

Yes. Since it is human hair, you can curl, straighten and blow-dry it just like your own hair. Always use heat protection, up to 210 °C.

Can I dye tape-in extensions?

Yes, tape-in extensions can be coloured just like your own hair. Bleaching is hard on all hair, including your own, so to keep the quality we recommend toning, which is gentler. Ideally have it done at a salon and bring the extensions along for a perfect colour match.

Colour and care

Which shade should I choose?

Choose the shade that best matches your current hair colour. If your hair falls between two shades, choose the lighter one for a modern, flattering ombre effect. If you have highlights, a mixed shade is often the best fit. Not sure? Send a photo to info@tangledsweden.com and our hairdressers will help you.

How do I wash hair extensions?

Wash in lukewarm water with a mild shampoo and conditioner without harsh sulfates and silicones, such as our Strengthening Hair Bars. For tape-in extensions: conditioner on the lengths only, never near the tapes. Read the full guide on how to wash hair extensions.
