Hailey's Hair Elastics was founded in 2013 by then 11 year old Hailey Stern when she couldn't find a hair elastic thick enough to hold her hair!

A self-described restless 11-year-old entrepreneur from Toronto, Canada she started selling them at local dance studios and fitness clubs as a fundraising project. 

The outcome was greater than anticipated. People of all ages, with all sorts of different hair, loved them, as they are great for ALL types of hair. 

Eventually they went viral. 

These days the company ships over 100 ever-changing colours worldwide as part of various fundraising and ambassador programs

Fun tip: You can even wear them as bracelets so that you’re never without one!
