ASKED
QUESTIONS
WHAT IS CIAO BELLA?
Ciao Bella means ~ hello beautiful. Our vision is to make the world more beautiful. Ciao Bella creates sustainable, recyclable hair ties for conscious consumers who want everyday essentials that look good and reduce waste.
HOW IS CIAO BELLA DIFFERENT FROM REGULAR HAIR TIES?
Ciao Bella hair ties use a pineapple fiber blend fabric that's softer on hair, paired with a natural rubber + cotton core for reliable hold. Unlike plastic hair ties, they won't snag, pull, or damage your hair—and they're better for the planet. Unlike traditional hair ties (and even many “sustainable” ones made from recycled polyester), our Halos are completely free from virgin plastic. That means no microplastics, no 500-year breakdown timeline, we promise a better alternative.
WHAT ARE CIAO BELLA HALOS MADE FROM?
Our Halos are made from upcycled pineapple fiber fabric and a core of natural rubber and cotton elastic—no plastic. Instead of contributing to waste, we transform agricultural byproducts into something beautiful and functional. Better hair ties. Less waste.
HOW LONG DO THEY LAST?
They are very durable. With proper care (hand wash and air dry), each tie can last up to 1 year. They're built to be reused, not replaced. If they snap within the first 90 days, be sure to get your free replacement pack!
DO YOU OFFER FREE SHIPPING?
Yes! Free shipping on all orders $35 and over. Most bundles automatically qualify.
WHAT IF THEY SNAP?
We offer easy returns within 90 days. If life happens, and the hair tie snaps, please check our refund policy and we will send a replacement!
WILL THEY WORK FOR MY HAIR TYPE?
Yes!! Our Halos are designed for: Thick hair, Fine hair, Curly hair, & Straight hair. They offer a secure hold without tension damage.
WHY PINEAPPLE FIBER?
Every year, millions of tons of pineapple waste are discarded during harvesting. We take that waste and turn it into fabric—creating a circular solution instead of pollution..
DO YOU GIVE BACK?
Yes 🤍 Giving back is part of the Ciao Bella mission to make the world more beautiful. We donate 5% of proceeds to organizations helping our planet and communities. (Currently supporting ocean and environmental initiatives 🌊)
