Hair Ties Design Contest Community Vote
We are pleased to present the entries we’ve received in the Hair Ties For Guys Design Contest & Community Showcase. 16 design collections were submitted, along with 10 individual hair tie designs.
Participants applied their creative artwork to The White Ties, a newly released product inspired by one of The Longhairs’ core values: Creativity and authenticity.
We’re deeply grateful for all the designs we received. We saw great care and attention to detail, ideas we had never thought of, and some masterfully creative designs.

The results of the community vote were tabulated and the results were no less than shocking. With over 750 votes cast, the totals were revealed on Selection Sunday LIVE, available via reply below for your entertainment.

This little contest was a profoundly worthwhile experience. It gave us a chance to put creativity and authenticity into practice, and in doing so has involved this community in the pursuit of The Longhairs core values. We’re very thankful for that.
We appreciate everyone who submitted designs and voted (still can’t believe over 750 votes!) and there is no doubt you’ll see another one of these in the future.
Looking ahead, we’ve passed ALL the designs we received over to El Gustavo, to see what we can whip up for our next round of new hair ties collections.
Stay tuned for updates, and with a final thank you to everyone who participated, here is a coupon for these brand new, just released collections of Hair Ties For Guys!

I can’t believe it! So grateful and excited.
i didn’t understand how to vote with a site asking always doing other choices…i suppose it is US ballot, with choices for city, county, state and federal and on each congress and president, governor, mayor etc…lol
Too cool! I totally enjoyed being able to vote on the designs. Great work from the artists.
I have to give a special shout to Ratty Maty b/c I’m a BMX guy!
I tried to vote on individual ties but could not
Sorry you had trouble man, we’ll try to get you dialed in next time!
