Alice bands

[tinyjo]

Does anyone else remember alice bands? They were rings of elasticated cotton mix, gathered at the back (for no apparent reason) which you wore round your head to restrain your hair. When my hair was longer I used to own several of these but got rid of them when I got rid of the hair. Now that I'm growing it again however I find that I can't find these in the shops, much to my chagrin. If anyone knows where I can aquire such a thing these days (who am I kidding - no one even knows what I'm blathering on about!) please tell me
