which size?

Three sizes. The wrap holds the length of your hair, so the size you need depends on how long your hair is and how much of it there is โ€” not on your head.

Small โ€” shoulder-length, fine hair.

Standard โ€” shoulder-length thick hair, mid-back length hair, or longer fine hair. Fits most.

Large โ€” longer, thick hair.

Between two? Go standard. Already ordered the wrong one? Message me before it ships and I'll change it over.

what our girlies are saying

The long section keeps my hair from getting loose and the cover stops my bun from catching on my snorkel buckles or first stage. I recommend the billybun to all my colleagues, scuba students, and visitors to our reef.

I took it with me on an 11 day live aboard to Komodo, wearing it every day, sometimes for 3 or 4 dives a dayโ€ฆ It's never come out in the ocean, even during negative entries into the water.

After using the Billy Bun, I found the breakage was limited to almost none, which for me was a huge win.

I have super knotty hair and used my Billybun last week for the first time, I've never managed to find a hairstyle which doesn't require me to hack away at my hair after a diveโ€ฆ it does not budge once it is in your hair, you don't need to worry about it falling out under water.

why your hair knots

Wet hair knots when it rubs against itself, or against the velcro on your wetsuit, mask strap, snorkel, or diving gear. So naturally, if you hold your hair still, you stop the knots from happening. It's the same idea as curling your hair with a sock, but made properly with the ocean in mind x

wrap, curl and cover

Wrap the length, curl into a bun & cover. From behind it looks like a bun you'd wear to brunch, not like gear. It keeps the loose bits off your face and out of your mask. And it uses the hair tie you already own.

it was never your hair

I taught diving with fine hair that came out of every dive a mess. I was told to just braid it, condition more and that mostly, I'd have to live with it. But I knew there had to be another way so I tried stuffing a sock around my hair before a dive... and it actually worked. My hair was easier to brush afterwards than it had ever been before. The problem was never my hair,

questions

Which size? Small for shoulder-length fine hair, standard fits most, large for long thick hair. There's a full sizing guide.

Does it need a special hair tie? No โ€” it works with the one you already own.

Can I wear it another way? Yes. Without the bun cover it works as a ponytail wrap or through a braid, which is handy under a hood.

How do I care for it? Rinse with fresh water after the ocean or the pool, squeeze out the excess and air dry.

Everything else is on the full FAQ page.

good to know

will it completely stop my hair from knotting?

No. Nothing will. It's designed to reduce knots, not pretend saltwater magically stops being saltwater.

will it work on fine & thick hair?

The wrap holds the length for both fine and thick hair. Just pull it tight as you wrap if you want it tighter.

what if it doesn't hold my hair?

Within 60 days, email us and we will refund you. No return or form needed.

does it need a special hair tie?

No. It works with the hair tie you already own.

can i wear it another way?

Yes. The bun is the way I'd start, and it's the one the sizing is built around. It also works without the bun cover as a ponytail wrap or through a braid. This is handy to wear under a hood.

which size should i get?

Small for shoulder-length fine hair. Standard fits most. Large for long, thick hair. There's a full sizing guide if you're between two.

how long does it take to put in?

About twenty seconds. Simply tie a pony tail, wrap, curl, & cover.

how long is shipping?

Australia: dispatched in 1-2 business days, delivered in 2-5. International: flat $25, delivered in 7-14 days.

what is it made of?

Two pieces of fabric (nylon & spandex) and bungee cord. No clips, no metal, nothing to corrode in salt water.
