I have spent a lot of money of hair bands. I have kinda frizzy hair and the shorter broken hair around my ears is always sticking out sideways if it is humid, ha. Those hairs escape most headbands, and if they don’t, the headband slips every hour or so and I have to readjust. These were kind of expensive for me but I tried them anyways, and they do not slip and hold all the little hairs back without giving me a headache. Well worth it for me, so I bought a few extras!
