Fumebag, before final disposal I decided to retrieve the hair elastics to do a test on them. I had two packages of covered elastics, cut one from each package. Inside there were only rubber bands and so I can keep them after all. If there was any choice, I would buy hair elastics from other countries because I'm avoiding products from China these days due to their toxicity in so many cases, but go try to find hair elastics made anywhere else--not easy!
That's good news that yours had rubber bands inside!
