The other day I was browsing the braided belt and hair accessories to wear in summer and I began to wonder whether there are any eco-friendly ones or it is largely fast fashion.
As I discovered, yes--there are eco-friendly braided accessories, however, it requires a lot of material. Natural fibers such as organic cotton, hemp, jute, and bamboo are biodegradable and many sustainable alternatives that do not involve the use of heavy chemicals are available. Braided belts made of hemp are particularly popular due to their strength, durability and the fact that they do not need much water to grow.
I even found some brands are using recycled fabrics or recycled polyester braids, which don't produce wastes but retain the braided appearance.
As I was scanning various marketplaces, such as Alibaba, I found both of them: manufacturers that openly rely on natural materials and are more earth-friendly, and those that are less eco-friendly but are cheaper to purchase.
My experience shows that there are certainly eco-friendly braided accessories, but you must pay attention to the details of the materials, not only rely on the label of greenness.
