hairaccessories If you can’t untangle the headband that’s stuck to scrunchie knotted up with a few bobby pins, it may be time to organize your hair accessories:

Toss Out Anything Broken - Throw out broken clips, frayed ribbons, rusted pins and stretched-out hair bands. They’re not good for your hair, nor do they look good.
Throw Out Old Hair Products - If you have hair products more than a few years old (or they smell funky), toss them out.
Wrap Hair Ties And Scrunchies Around A Cardboard Tube - Depending on how many hair ties and scrunchies you have, find a cardboard or paper towel tube and gather them on the tube to keep them organized. PVC pipe works, as well.
Clip Bobby Pins To A Piece Of Cardboard - Get a thick piece of cardboard and clip your bobby pins on them to keep them from getting tangled with each other.
Stick Hair Pins And Sticks In A Piece Of Styrofoam - Get a piece of Styrofoam - cut a square from packaging material, or buy some at a craft store, and stick hair pins and and hair chopsticks in them to keep them organized.
Roll Up Ribbons And Clip - Roll up your hair ribbons and clip them in a roll using a paper clip or a hair clip.
Store Claw Clips And Plastic Headbands Separately - Claw (or jaw) clips and plastic headbands tend to break easily, so store them in a different container or drawer than your other hair accessories. Plastic shoeboxes work well.
Organize Small Clips In Jars - If you have small clips, organize them in jars - baby food jars are the perfect size. They also allow you to clearly see the contents.
Clean Your Hairbrushes - Now is a good time to clean your hairbrushes. Remove bunched hair with a fine-toothed comb, wash with hot water and shampoo, then let air-dry.
Store Accessories In An Easily Transportable Box - If you have to move from bedroom to bathroom, consider an easily transportable box. Use a plastic shoebox, toolbox, or even try one of Caboodles’ many specialty storage cases.
