The scrunchie, also known as a scrunchy, is a fabric-covered elastic hair tie commonly used to secure medium to long hair. These versatile accessories come in various colors, fabrics, and designs. Let’s delve into the fascinating history of scrunchies:

Invention and Patent:
The scrunchie was invented during the 1960s but gained widespread recognition when it was patented in 1987 by Rommy Hunt Revson.
Revson’s motivation was to create a gentler alternative to the metal hair ties prevalent at the time.
She developed the first scrunchie prototype after buying a $50 sewing machine and drawing inspiration from the elastic waistband on her sweatpants.
Interestingly, she named this decorative hair accessory the “Scunci” after her pet toy poodle1.
Popularity Waves:
1980s and 1990s: Revson’s scrunchies became a sensation during these decades.
Celebrities like Janet Jackson, Paula Abdul, Demi Moore, and Sarah Jessica Parker sported scrunchies.
Debbie Gibson was particularly associated with them, and even Madonna rocked a large velvet scrunchie in the movie Desperately Seeking Susan.
Scrunchies made appearances in popular shows like Friends, Full House, and Seinfeld.
Female astronauts even used scrunchies to secure their hair during missions!
Early 2000s: The scrunchie’s popularity waned, with Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City famously mocking them.
The accessory became a faux pas, and wearing one was considered embarrassing.
2010s Revival: Against all odds, the scrunchie made a triumphant comeback in the late 2010s1.
So, next time you reach for a scrunchie, remember its fascinating journey through fashion history! 🌟
