Scrunchies are the cheapest way to increase order value in swimwear. They cost very little to produce, use leftover fabric from your main production run, and convert readily as a checkout add-on or a free gift above a spend threshold. Brands that bundle a matching scrunchie with every set report noticeably better perceived value with almost no margin impact.

Styles We Manufacture

Standard scrunchies in the classic gathered construction. Oversized and cloud versions with extra fabric volume for a statement look. Bow scrunchies with a tied detail. Knotted headbands using the same fabric and elastic system. Wrist-wearable versions cut slightly wider so they sit comfortably as a bracelet when not in the hair. Sets of two or three in coordinating prints, which present well at retail and lift the unit price above a single piece.

Fabric Options

The whole point of a swim scrunchie is that it matches the swimwear, so we cut from your main production fabric — nylon spandex 80/20, recycled polyester 84/16, ribbed knit, or whatever base your collection uses. Because we cut from your existing yardage, there is no separate fabric minimum and no dye-lot mismatch. For orders where fabric remnants are insufficient, we can run a small additional yardage allocation during the main production booking.

Construction & Craftsmanship Details

The elastic is fully encased so it never contacts hair directly, which prevents the snagging and breakage that ruins cheap scrunchies. Seams are overlocked and turned so no raw edge is exposed. The closing seam is hand-finished with a slip stitch or machine-closed with a concealed join depending on volume. Elastic is chlorine-tested — standard elastic degrades quickly in pool water and loses tension within weeks, so we specify a swim-grade elastic that holds. Bar tacks reinforce the seam join on oversized versions where fabric weight puts more stress on the closure.

Customization & Branding

Print matching is automatic since we cut from your swim fabric. Branding options include a small woven label sewn into the seam, a printed care tag, or a branded card that the scrunchie slips onto for retail display. The card format works particularly well as a bundled gift item because it presents as a deliberate product rather than an offcut. Custom card artwork can be produced alongside your hangtag and packaging order.

Sizing & Fit Development

Two sizes cover the market: standard at roughly 10-11 cm diameter and oversized at 14-16 cm. Elastic tension should be confirmed on sample — too tight causes headaches with prolonged wear, too loose and it will not hold thick hair. If your customer base skews toward thicker or curlier hair textures, we recommend the oversized construction with slightly relaxed elastic tension.

Packaging & Shipping

Scrunchies pack in individual poly bags, on branded display cards, or bundled directly into the swimwear set bag as a gift item. They add almost no weight or volume to a shipment, so freight cost impact is negligible. Sets of two or three are packed together on a single card.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can scrunchies be made from my swimwear fabric?

Yes, and that is the standard approach. We cut from your main production yardage so the print and dye lot match exactly with no separate fabric minimum.

What is the MOQ for scrunchies?

100 pcs per print when produced alongside a swim order. As a standalone order without accompanying swimwear the minimum is higher — contact us for a quote.

Will the elastic survive chlorine?

Yes. We specify swim-grade chlorine-resistant elastic rather than standard haberdashery elastic, which loses tension within weeks in pool water.

Do scrunchies snag hair?

No. The elastic is fully encased and all seams are turned so no raw edge or elastic contacts the hair.

Can they be bundled as a free gift with sets?

Yes. We can pack the scrunchie directly into the swimwear set poly bag, or present it on a branded card for a more premium gift feel.

How long does production take?

10-15 days, and they typically ship alongside your main swim order at no additional freight cost.

Factory-direct pricing, sampling in 7–10 days, and photo updates at every production stage.
