This playful, color-rich hair accessory is made from ikat, a textile whose distinct “blurred” pattern is achieved through a specialized technique called resist dyeing. Ikat originated in Indonesia but has found a second home in northern Afghanistan and Uzbekistan where local weavers have produced their own unique interpretation of this textile tradition. These scrunchies are handcrafted by women’s collectives in rural provinces across Afghanistan. Available in four colorways.
Note: All products are handmade making each piece a unique creation. There may be slight variations between the product you see and the one you receive.
