If you’ve been searching for a hair tie that won’t tug, crease, or break your strands, the LOLA scrunchie in Rose Silk might be exactly what you need. Silk scrunchies are famous for being gentle on hair—they glide rather than grip, reducing friction and preventing those dreaded dents. The LOLA scrunchie, with its soft silk exterior and hidden elastic core, offers a secure hold without the tightness of a standard elastic.

In this guide, we’ll walk through three low-impact updos that work beautifully with this scrunchie. Whether you have fine, thick, or curly hair, these styles are designed to be comfortable enough for all-day wear and easy to take down without pulling. Let’s dive into the first look.
Why the LOLA Scrunchie in Rose Silk Is Ideal for Low-Impact Styles
The LOLA scrunchie in Rose Silk is made from smooth mulberry silk, which is naturally gentle on hair cuticles. Unlike traditional elastic bands that can snag and break strands, silk scrunchies reduce friction and help prevent split ends. The Rose Silk shade adds a soft, romantic touch that works with both casual and dressy looks.
Another reason this scrunchie shines for low-impact updos is its volume. The generous fabric loop creates a cushioned hold, so you can wrap it around your hair a few times without it feeling too tight. This makes it especially good for second-day hair or for anyone with a sensitive scalp. Pair it with a LORA clip in Taffy Tortoiseshell to secure any loose pieces.

- Silk fabric reduces friction and helps prevent hair breakage.
- The cushioned loop distributes pressure evenly, avoiding tension headaches.
- Rose Silk color complements both warm and cool skin tones.
Low-Impact Updo #1: The Loose Top Knot
A loose top knot is one of the quickest ways to get your hair off your face without stress. Start by gathering your hair into a high ponytail using your hands—no brush needed to keep it soft. Instead of pulling the LOLA scrunchie all the way through on the last wrap, stop halfway so the loop forms a small bun.
Let the ends of your hair fan out slightly for a relaxed, undone look. If you have layers, you can tuck shorter pieces under the scrunchie or leave them out for a wispy effect. This style works well for medium to long hair and takes less than a minute. For extra hold, slide a LUCY comb in Taffy Red into the side to catch any flyaways.
- Use your fingers to gather hair for a softer, more natural finish.
- Stop the last wrap halfway to create a built-in bun shape.
- Leave a few strands loose around the face for a romantic feel.
Low-Impact Updo #2: The Twisted Half-Up Crown
This style is perfect for days when you want to keep hair away from your face but still show off length. Take a section of hair from each temple, twist them toward the back of your head, and join them with the LOLA scrunchie. The silk material will hold the twists gently without flattening them.
Once the scrunchie is in place, gently tug at the twists to add volume. You can also pull a few face-framing pieces free for a softer silhouette. This updo is especially flattering on oval and heart-shaped faces. If your hair is slippery, mist with a light texturizing spray before twisting. For a playful accent, clip a JOAN Bébé clip in Jewelled Pastel Marble onto the side of the crown.
- Twist each section outward for a more defined crown shape.
- Gently loosen the twists after securing to add fullness.
- A light texturizing spray helps the style last longer.
Low-Impact Updo #3: The Side-Swept Low Ponytail
A low ponytail swept to one side is elegant yet effortless. Brush your hair to one side, then gather it at the nape of your neck. Secure with the LOLA scrunchie, positioning it so the silk fabric sits against your hair. The key to keeping this low-impact is to not pull the elastic too tight—let the scrunchie do the work.
For extra polish, wrap a small section of hair around the base of the ponytail to hide the scrunchie, or leave the scrunchie visible as a deliberate accessory. The Rose Silk color adds a subtle pop that catches the light. To keep shorter layers from slipping, tuck them behind your ear or use a RANA clip in Lilac Maple to hold them in place.
- Position the ponytail low and to one side for a classic silhouette.
- Avoid pulling the elastic taut; the scrunchie provides enough grip.
- Use a small clip to secure any stray layers for a clean finish.
The LOLA scrunchie in Rose Silk proves that you don’t have to choose between style and hair health. These three low-impact updos—loose top knot, twisted half-up crown, and side-swept low ponytail—let you look put-together while treating your strands gently. Experiment with each to find your favorite, and remember that the scrunchie itself can double as a decorative element.
