What Are Terra Ties?
Terra Ties are hair ties made from organic cotton and natural rubber—yep, all natural and biodegradable. Unlike most hair ties out there, which are made from synthetic rubber and polyester, Terra Ties break down naturally without harming the planet. They’re designed for anyone with long hair who wants to style it without adding to environmental pollution. Plus, the packaging? Totally plastic-free and crafted from 100% recycled materials. It’s a simple idea but with a big impact.
The Main Benefit: Eco-Friendly Hair Ties
Why choose Terra Ties? Here’s the lowdown:
- Made from two renewable, 100% biodegradable materials: natural rubber and organic cotton dyed with natural dyes.
- Most hair ties out there don’t decompose or take thousands of years to do so.
- Terra Ties are thicker, more durable, and softer than standard hair ties.
- Packaging is plastic-free and made with 100% recycled materials.
- They help reduce the millions of synthetic hair ties polluting landfills and the environment.
The Environmental Problem with Traditional Hair Ties
Think about all the hair ties lost or thrown away over time. Where do they end up? Usually, on the ground outside or buried in landfills. Since most are made from synthetic materials, they don’t break down easily—sometimes taking thousands of years. This means they just sit there, polluting soil and waterways, contributing to the growing problem of plastic waste. Terra Ties offer a fresh alternative that actually decomposes, helping to reduce this environmental burden.
Materials That Matter
Terra Ties are crafted from natural rubber and organic cotton, both renewable resources. The cotton is dyed with natural dyes, avoiding harmful chemicals. This choice of materials means the hair ties are not only better for the planet but also gentler on hair. The natural rubber provides stretch and durability, while the organic cotton adds softness. Together, they create a product that’s both functional and eco-conscious.
Designed for Everyone
Terra Ties aren’t just for one type of person—they’re for everyone. People of all genders and ages can use them to style their hair without worrying about environmental harm. Whether it’s a quick ponytail or a more intricate hairstyle, these ties hold up while being kind to the Earth. It’s a small change in daily routine that makes a big difference.
