much too tight for man with average to small head [SEP] i agree with other reviewers here about them being too tight i am a man with an average to small head and these are too tight i was excited to see something that was not too girly that i could wear since i am growing my hair out and this keeps the hair out of my eyes and helps on my many awkward days that comes with growing hair out until it is long enough for a ponytail it is too bad because the material feels nice and i like the versatility of being able to have a narrow or wide headband however unless you feel you have an abnormally small head i would stay away from these until they are re engineered to not be so tight or maybe add an adjustability option the only reason i gave this stars instead of is because i can wear them for a short period of time before having to take them off because it hurts pinches too much
