The Story
It all started when our founder, Nicole (aka Coco), set out to make an everyday essential both better and cuter. After 15 years in the fashion industry and a lifetime of staying active—whether running from the office to yoga, catching waves, heading to meetings, or hopping on a plane—she noticed one small thing always fell short: the hair tie.
They slipped, snagged, creased hair, pinched wrists, and never matched her jewelry. Determined to change that, Coco created Gypsea Bands in 2023—an all-in-one bracelet and hair tie designed to keep up with your lifestyle.
Super stretchy, no-slip, no-snag, and no-crease, each Gypsea Band is stackable, stylish, and made with purpose—giving back to the community and the environment.
