5 Compact Silk Hair Accessories That Belong in Your Carry-On

Jet lag, dry air, tangled hair—travel doesn’t always feel glamorous. But with the right silk essentials in your carry-on, you can step off the plane looking (and feeling) polished, rested, and effortless.

Why Silk Is a Travel Must-Have

Silk doesn’t just feel luxurious—it works hard to protect your hair while you’re on the go. From friction-free updos to damage prevention during long-haul flights, silk keeps your strands smooth, tangle-free, and hydrated.

The best part? These accessories are tiny, TSA-friendly, and fit right into the zipper pocket of your tote or weekender.

1. Silkie Mini Scrunchies

Perfect for: Airport buns, travel braids, on-the-go ponytails

These little lifesavers offer a gentle yet secure hold without tugging or creasing. Made from 100% mulberry silk, they’re ideal for quick touch-ups, last-minute coffee runs, and tossing your hair up during boarding.

Pro tip: Toss a couple in your makeup pouch—you’ll always have one within reach.

2. Silkie Medium Scrunchie

Perfect for: Stylish hold during long flights or sightseeing

Need a little more grip for thicker hair or high buns? Silkie’s medium scrunchie gives you a snug, soft hold while still protecting against breakage and frizz. Plus, it adds a pop of polish to even the simplest outfits.

Choose a neutral like champagne or rose for chic versatility across outfits and time zones.
