I am in LOVE y’all!
Recently I was at my local sporting goods store and decided to splurge on myself a tiny bit. I was a bit skeptical as I have the oddest luck with headbands and tbh, paying $16 for a sports headband. But I found out it’s WORTH it! This review is of my own accord, and I bought this headband with my own money. It is sponsored by no one, and I just wanted to put some information out there on a product I am enjoying!
Slippage (or a lack there of)
This headband STAYS PUT! It doesn’t slip around. doesn’t pop off the top of my head near my ponytail. It actually stay in place. It also doesn’t twirl around on the top of your head.
Fit
Normally a downside to no slipping is a tight, headache-inducing fit. Not so with this head band! It’s just perfect, I often have headaches and migraines. I’ve made sure to try on the headband when I had a headache as well. It didn't make my head hurt more, and it has NEVER given me one. Which is quite a feat for me.
Texture
This headband is so soft, and comfy! I honestly love it!
But did it keep my hair and sweat off my face?!
Short answer: YES! While I clearly don’t wear on my whole forehead, I did try it out, and it absorbed sweat without feeling soggy/sopped. More importantly for me, it kept the hair-based sweat from trickling down my face and back of my neck. YET, it is still breathable enough to where I felt cool enough while running and lifting weights.
It also didn’t soak up any dye from my hair color (rainbow prism in the semi-selfie) which has just as much to do with fabric as dye (I dye my hair enough to know both can be a cause).
OVERALL?: 5/5 Stars!!!
I can’t recommend this headband enough! In fact I’m planning on buying one of the ear warmer headbands soon, so I can do a winter run review, and even try it as a casual band in my cold city!
