Scrunchies are back in fashion, and some even come with zips so you can stash some extra items in them.

Costing for 12, this works out to just 83p per scrunchie.

The description states: "Created with a high-quality invisible zipper to securely hold small items while keeping the opening of the zipper pocket hidden and out of sight.

"The hidden pocket scrunchie can store lipstick, keys, coin, cash, and pets snacks."

Coming in a range of colours, each own opens so you can fit in items such as lip balm or loose change.

They are ideal for keeping some spare money with you on holiday in an emergency.

If you take a few of them with you, it also frees up the space in your makeup bag.

Just remember to put them through the scanners at airport security if they contain liquids.

People praised them in the reviews too, with many giving them four or five stars.

One person wrote: "I absolutely love these scrunchies, the zip is amazing and has a lot more storage space than you think!

"Perfect for carrying around all your smaller items and even when the hair bobble is full with things inside it is still very effective, keeping all your hair up."

It's not the only way you can use a scrunchie on holiday.

Cleaner Terence Harris revealed how he adds extra security to his hotel room with only a towel and a hair scrunchie.

In  on TikTok he is seen using the items to create a makeshift buffer to prevent the door being opened from the outside.

And another woman shared her nifty travel tip on , revealing how she uses the hairband to keep her hotel hairdryer on.
