Losing stuff sucks. We've all forgotten where we put things or accidentally left something important behind at a restaurant, a store or in our Uber. The popular rideshare company just put out its ninth-annual Uber Lost & Found Index and it's amazing how many beauty and luxury items are left behind in vehicles. Think Dyson Airwraps, Jo Malone London perfumes, Rhode lip gloss in Toast, Solawave red light therapy wands, Balmain blazers, black Gucci belts and even Christian Dior shawls along with slides. The biggest surprise? How many people are being separated from their best scrunchies.
More specifically, silk versions and Prada creations. It's pretty interesting since although the hair accessories have been mounting a comeback, they still have a somewhat negative connotation. Carrie Bradshaw helped fuel this fire by criticizing her then-boyfriend because he featured the controversial item in his book. It's also surprising because if they're not holding up hair, they can usually be found chilling out on wrists. (One of our favorite pieces from The Frankie Shop actually comes with a matching scrunchie to be worn simultaneously on the wrist.)
Now anyone can just head to their local Claire's store in the mall and pick up a couple of inexpensive ones while throwing back a fruity beverage from Orange Julius. But we're guessing the people who are leaving their scrunchies in Ubers are somewhat fashion-forward, especially New York City riders who are the most forgetful, according to Uber. So we put together the definitive list of the best scrunchies to stock up on. In addition to Prada, there are fancy options from Gucci, Miu Miu, Saint Laurent, Versace and even Valentino Garavani. We also made sure to include numerous non-designer selections in a variety of colors.
Shop the best scrunchies below and if you're going the fashion house route, make sure to keep track of it at all times the next time you're in an Uber.
