Headband Neck Gaiter Head Wrap Headwear Face Mask Magic Scarf Bandana for Men and Women

Got these for our Bestie/Roomy/"Property Manager" They look great on her, she likes them, and wears them fairly often. They make her smile ... and THAT's a Win!

TL;DR: Giant tubes that you can use as hair restraints, neck-warmers, face masks, and more (Wrap a yoga mat! use as a travel pillow cover! The possibilities are endless-ish!). Quite stretchy: I once put one on as a tube-top as a joke (I'm a slim dude, but still). Wicks sweat and keeps you from becoming the world's most disgusting sprinkler system when you're sweaty as heck. Staggering array of color choices. Highly recommended; will order again and again. Pro tip: Cut some in half (so one tube becomes two tubes) to make shorter hair wraps; leave some full length for versatility. You don't even have to seal the cut ends with a lighter. My Mom bought me a set of these, and shortly thereafter I added a second set. I kind of love them, you guys. I'm a ballet dancer and I sweat like a cold drink on a muggy afternoon (read: profusely and unstoppably). Heretofore, my answer has been to just keep my hair really short so it doesn't fling sweat all over everybody, but with Petipa's Sleeping Beauty in the mix this season a more old-fashioned look was in order. A while back I bought a wide Alice band to keep things contained, but at $6 for one band, it didn't make sense for someone whose work involves sweating balls all day, 5-6 days/week. Moreover, the one I bought was a little narrower than I really wanted it to be. It did control both sweat and hair, but had to be washed every couple of days, which was inconvenient. These things solved both problems. I was worried that they'd overheat my head: they don't. I was worried that they wouldn't wick sweat: they do. I was worried that they'd be impractically long: they aren't. I did cut some into two shorter tubes, and I use both those and the full-length ones more or less interchangeably. Note: If you want a headband less than half the length of these, consider using a half-length section doubled over and sewn in one spot (I'll post a pic ASAP). The fabric is very thin, and I've found that shorter sections tend just to roll up unless you do something along those lines. I now use these every day in class and rehearsal--in fact, I use them frequently outside of the studio as well. I machine wash these in cold water (hot water is bad for stretchy fabrics, generally) and tumble dry them on low heat, usually in a zippered mesh bag to keep them together. So far, they're holding up quite well, considering the abuse they take on a daily basis. Another pro tip: wash and dry these (and any wicking fabric, and also towels) without fabric softener. Fabric softener forms a coating on fabrics that prevents them from wicking sweat properly. I'm planning on taking a bunch of these with me to Burning Man this year to see how they do in a profoundly inhospitable environment. I'll report back, of course. Overall, I really like these and recommend them. They won't mow your lawn and build you a deck, but they'll manage your hair and sweat while you do, and that's pretty good!

These are quite thin, so I wrap a cotton bandana on my head, then add one of these for a band that appears to be much thicker. Great selection of colors that stay vibrant after washing.

Very happy with these. Got them for a safari trip in Africa. The fabric is stretchy and breathable yet helps immensely with dust protection. Good fit - snug but not strangling for both me and my husband. They also doubled as headbands to keep my long unruly curly hair off my face in the safari jeeps. Also kept my face warm on the cold windy morning game drives. Love the prints. Wash well and quick dry. Great value for the money. Highly recommend

I just love these things! They are handy to keep my hair contained and out of my face/eyes/mouth in multiple situations. I like to wear them when exercising indoors or out and on my bicycle rides. They keep my head cool, protect against a sunburned scalp(the worst!), protect hair color from the sun, keep the head covered to protect against ticks, plus keep my hair contained. They are great to wear gardening and when in a car with the windows down. No more hair getting blown all over the place, especially right now when my hair is too short to get into a ponytail and long enough to be in the way. I keep these everywhere too, in the car, gym bag, purse, fishing bag, you name it. They wash and wear well, can be worn in many ways, and the best thing is they STAY PUT on my head! I can go for a run, go for a two hour bike ride and they don’t slip off like most of the headbands do. Sometimes I’ll wear them all day around the house and they stay put. They are gentle on hair as well and don’t tug or pull or cause damage like elastic headbands can.

These headbands are very thin. The material is not cut neat, it seems like its cut by hand. But they are still usable.

Probably the best $11 I've ever spent! Okay, so that might be a bit of hyperbole, but seriously, these unassuming, versatile tubes of colorful knit polyester fabric added an inordinate amount of joy to my last backpacking trip in mid-May. Background: I am an avid hiker and backpacker here in the Four Corners region of the US, and one of the things I never leave home without is a bandana. They are useful, but a bit lacking, so my search for something better brought me to this product on Amazon, which sounded great, and at that price, totally worth taking a chance on. Order arrived on the day promised and in time for my trip. Each band arrives neatly folded in its own plastic baggie, and there is even a little info sheet regarding the testing of the material, dyes and care for these - unreal! Anyway, they are as described in the product description: seamless tubes, un-hemmed and out of a soft knit fabric that's an ideal weight: not too thick, and not too thin. I bought the blue set of 6, and the patterns are even better than the picture shows. Anyway, on my 4-night, 5-day trip, this exceeded my expectations: so comfortable, and I literally did not take it from the time my sun hat came off to the time I put it back on the next day. Folded over once, it kept my ears covered (and helped to keep out the No-See-Um gnats that are the bane of spring here in canyon country) and my hair out of my face. At night, I slept in it, using it as a blindfold of sorts to keep out the bright light of the full moon. Later towards the end of the trip as a storm was rolling through the region, it alternated between a light neck warmer and ear band. It's hard to imagine something so small could improve the quality of my backpacking trip as much as it did, but it really did. In future trips, I'll now use it as a neck gaiter while hiking to keep the sun off my neck...and if it's hot, just soak it. The bandana will still come along, and be relegated to one of its original and best uses: a snot rag ;). Also, I threw it in the washer and dryer, and it laundered like a champ. I threw one in my gym bag to wear, and it worked better than my hand-crocheted headband to keep my hair out of my face, and another I have to wear when I'm cooking and baking to keep hair from getting into my food (even finding my own hair in my food grosses me out). So, yeah - this product gets 5 stars and two thumbs' up from me! If they ever make a set in purples, I'll buy them in a flash. Another note: I wear glasses, and I personally did not find the band to be so tight with the glasses that it caused a headache, and I have had that happen before with other hats/headbands. If you have an exceptionally large cabbage and the arms of your glasses are thick, I suppose it could be an issue. However, it's easy enough to fold the fabric up or twist it so it's not encapsulating your ears.

I use these colorful headbands as hat bands. Changes for my mood. 1 for each hat. If needed, I can slip it off and use as head band as it is comfortable for that too.

Very soft and comfortable to wear. Beautiful colours.

Very good for the price, a bit large so if you have a small head it might not be that comfortable

Well made and great material. Thanks

Good value for money. With multi uses.
