2.  Those that are on a circular stretchy band - material, sequined, crochet etc - these are great for combining with a bun or pony tail, although they can sometimes slip and ping off backwards (kirby grips advised on shiny straight hair!)

You can tie your own - like this:

Defo one I will be trying ....
