A practical guide to styling the Pusheen 3-Pack Hair Scrunchies and washing them without losing their soft fabric feel or shape.

Quick answer

Wear the Pusheen 3-Pack Hair Scrunchies in a loose ponytail, a half-up twist, or around your wrist, then wash them by hand in cool water with a drop of mild soap and air-dry them flat. Keep them out of the dryer and away from high heat so the soft fabric and elastic keep their shape.

Why these scrunchies suit both short and long hair

The three scrunchies in this set are made of soft fabric, which gives them more bulk than a thin elastic. That extra fabric is what makes them work for short hair: a loose topknot or a half-up style holds better when the scrunchie itself has some volume. On long hair, the same softness means you can wrap them without pulling the hair tight against your scalp.

The trade-off is that fabric scrunchies can stretch out if you wrap them too many times or leave them in the same tight position for days. Treat them as a gentle hold, not a heavy-duty tie, and rotate between the three designs so each one gets a rest.

What to check before you wash

The catalog does not list a fiber content or a care label for this set, so the safest routine is the one you would use for any soft fabric accessory: cool water, mild soap, no bleach, and no machine drying. If you have a very delicate detergent for wool or silk, that is a reasonable choice, but a small amount of gentle shampoo or hand soap also works.

Spot-clean first if only one area is soiled. Washing all three every time you wear one adds unnecessary wear to the elastic.

Step-by-step: wear and wash your scrunchies

Choose a style for your hair length: For short hair, gather a half-up section or a loose topknot and wrap the scrunchie once or twice. For long hair, make a low ponytail or a loose bun and wrap until the fabric sits comfortably, not tightly. Common mistake: wrapping short hair as many times as long hair, which overstretches the elastic. If the scrunchie leaves a deep mark on your wrist or head, it is wrapped too tight.
Loosen the hold before bed: Slide the scrunchie out rather than pulling it down over the ends of your hair. Checkpoint: if you feel resistance, unwind one loop first instead of tugging.
Pre-treat any spots: Dab a small amount of mild soap and cool water onto the soiled area with your fingers, then rinse. Do not scrub hard with a brush, which can pill the fabric surface.
Hand-wash in cool water: Fill a bowl with cool water and a drop of mild soap. Squeeze each scrunchie gently a few times and let them soak for a few minutes. Common mistake: using hot water or bleach, which can fade the printed designs and weaken the elastic. Wash only the scrunchies that need it, not the whole set every time.
Rinse and press out water: Rinse under cool running water until the soap is gone, then press the scrunchies between your palms or in a clean towel. Do not wring or twist them, which distorts the fabric loop.
Air-dry flat and reshape: Lay the scrunchies flat on a dry towel, away from direct sun and radiators, and smooth the fabric back into a round shape while damp. Checkpoint: never put them in a tumble dryer, because heat can shrink the elastic and set wrinkles. Let them dry completely before storing so no dampness sits in the fabric folds.
