Quick answer
Style large scrunchies with baby carriers by choosing a fabric that complements your carrier, securing hair away from straps, and adjusting placement for comfort.
Why large scrunchies work with baby carriers
Large scrunchies are gentle on hair, reducing breakage compared to tight elastics. Their size also makes them easy to grab and adjust one-handed while holding your baby.
They are made from soft hope&plum fabrics, so they won't scratch your baby's face or snag on carrier straps.
How to style large scrunchies with your baby carrier
- Step 1: Choose a fabric that coordinates: Pick a scrunchie made from a fabric that matches or complements your baby carrier. For example, a neutral scrunchie blends in, while a patterned one adds a pop of color. Avoid fabrics with rough textures that might irritate your baby's skin if it touches the carrier.
- Step 2: Secure hair away from carrier straps: Gather your hair into a high ponytail or bun using the scrunchie. Make sure the elastic is tight enough to hold without slipping. The goal is to keep hair off your shoulders and away from the carrier straps. A low ponytail may get caught under the strap, causing discomfort; aim for a mid-to-high placement.
- Step 3: Adjust scrunchie position for comfort: If wearing a back carry, position the scrunchie so it doesn't press against the carrier's shoulder straps. For front carries, keep the scrunchie above or beside the straps. Test the placement by moving your head side to side; the scrunchie should not pull or dig in.
- Step 4: Secure loose ends: If you have shorter layers or baby hairs, tuck them under the scrunchie or use a small clip. This prevents hairs from tickling your baby's face during a front carry. Check that no loose hairs are caught in the carrier buckle before fastening.
