Scrunchies, claw clips, headbands, and silk hair ties cost $0.30-0.80 each wholesale on AliExpress. Bundle 5-8 matching accessories into a 'Hair Accessory Set' and sell for $12-18. Matte claw clips, silk scrunchies, and pearl headbands are the trendiest styles. Poshmark is strong for accessories because buyers bundle multiple items from the same seller. This is a low-risk starter niche with cheap shipping.
🚀 First Step
Search 'wholesale claw clips' and 'wholesale scrunchies' on AliExpress, order a mixed selection of 30 pieces for under $15, and assemble 5 bundles.
  • Matte-finish claw clips and silk scrunchies are the highest-demand hair accessories in 2026
  • Bundle by color palette — 'Neutral Tones Hair Set' sells better than a random mix
  • Offer a Poshmark bundle discount to encourage buyers to add more items from your closet
