I have a small head (some may say pinhead, but that's for another discussion). So, I was concerned that they'd be too big and wouldn't stay put. I usually wear them when I'm baking or making tortillas to contain my hair and sweat, which tends to be a fair amount of sweat. But I currently have a medication reaction of several sore areas of lesions on my face and neck. My doc gave me an ointment to put on them, and it's very thick and sticky. So when I need to apply it 3 times a day, I wear one of these to keep the sticky goopy ointment out of my hair. In addition to my tiny head, I also have very thin and fine hair, and even with that, these stay put pretty well. They're snug but not tight or uncomfortable at all. I've been sleeping in them because of the sticky ointment, and even tho I'm kind of a tossing and turning kind of sleeper, the headbands stay put with very little adjustment needed. I don't usually look good at all in headbands, but if I had a reason to wear one in public, I wouldn't have any problem with wearing these out and about.
So, they're comfy, functional, stretchy, sweat-catching, nice colors, they wash and dry nicely on low temp, and reasonably priced as well. I definitely recommend these!

Effective, Comfortable, & Cute
LOVE these headbands! I got the cute, bright, multicolored pack and I was not disappointed. I love that they’re not too thick and you can fold them in half, which is helpful if you have short hair with tall bangs like I do. They are 100% effective at moisture-wicking. As another reviewer said, I can literally wring them out after a workout and the sweat just pours out – but the best part? None of that ends up on my face! I dye my hair red, and I got tired of looking like I’d been in an accident the first week after I get retouched. These are perfectly effective at keeping my hair dye on my head instead of dripping down my face, and they’re cute, too! I have a different color to go with any exercise ensemble (yes, I’m a dork and I coordinate my exercise outfits 😆). If you need help with sweat drippage on your face, this is the product is definitely for you!!!

cute, but not quite non-slip
I really like these headbands for style and color options. They are wide enough to cover more of my head than most athletic hairbands do, and as a person with a floppy pixie cut, I need the extra coverage so things don’t look ridiculous. However, these hairbands are not non-slip – there is no gripper or anything to keep them in place. When wearing them on their own, I do have to adjust them once in a while so that they stay in position. When I wear them under my bike helmet, they do stay put, which is important. I am using them at home/work, while climbing, and riding my bike under a helmet. Overall I recommend them.

Comfortable and absorbent
I love these! I sweat a lot. A lot a lot. I also do long and intense workouts. These fit well and stay in place even when my hair is soaked. One keeps sweart from pouring down my face for 15-30 mins which is amazing for me. For a normal person, it would last a whole workout.

Great quality if you don’t care about purple!
They work GREAT for hot yoga! Kept my hair out of my face and prevented a fair of amount of sweat from rolling down my face. I took off two whole stars for the colors though — there is no purple which was the whole reason I bought this set! There is a bubblegum pink and a mauve but nothing that could be considered purple or lavender which was a huge disappointment. The green is an olive or army green which is fine but not remarkable. Still on the lookout for legit purple and sage green.

Great Fit! Great price!
These are buttery soft and stay put while I am working out. A definite must for the hot Pilates class

Nice headbands
Good selection of colors, fit well and stay on head during workouts. Absorb sweat easily. No complaints.

Soft, stays on and is comfortable. But it is synthetic material.
This is my 2nd time buying these workout headbands. The heathered colors whether light or dark or bright are fine to me–its just for working out and they’ll get sweaty anyways. They are soft and stay put on my head. The only concern I’ve had is that after many times of sweating in them, but rinsing them quickly with fresh water afterwards and letting them air dry before washing (can’t always do laundry right away), they begin to have a kind of musty smell to them. I mean after they’ve been washed, they’re clean, but they smell of both laundry detergent, and still kind of like sweat/a lil musty. The material is totally synthetic obviously, so that likely is the issue. But I have some workout leggings that are also synthetic that have an “anti odor” property used on them and those really don’t “retain” sweat odors after washing. So I’ve thrown out a few of these already and using the newer “fresh” headbands. I’m going to try using some additional odor blaster detergent in the wash and see if this helps out.

Una gran compra, son muy versátiles y los colores son muy combinables. Son un total de 12 bandanas, o sea que tienes muchos colores para combinar con la ropa deportiva. Realmente me gustó mucho esta compra, además en la caja de envío del vendedor viene un muy bonito mensaje.

Recomendaría que buscaran fabricarlas de diferentes tallas ya que todos tenemos diferentes tamaños y formas de cabeza, fabricarlas de una medida estándar no es tan funcional, en lo personal me quedaron un poco grandes, lo que hace que se resbalen y se tengan que estar acomodando constantemente, su absorción no es tan buena como lo anuncian y le podría un regular en este aspecto, estéticamente los colores son fantásticos y se pueden lavar y secar muy fácilmente.
