This Review Title is Beware, if you have a normal to large head this will be too tight! and the content is: So let’s set this straight. This hair band has a very thick black accordion style piece of elastic at the bottom portion that goes across the base of your skull about half of the band. At about ear height are thick fabric pads that press into your ears, that after about 30 minutes start throbbing painfully. The upper portion that would hold your hair back is NOT elastic, it is thick folded fabric that fans out rather nicely (about the only positive thing to say about this hair band). These are extremely tight! With very little give once you have them on. So unless you have a tiny head or use them on a small child or like the feeling of a boa constrictor around your head do not buy these..There are other information for this review, one is This reviewer did purchase it and the other is 0 people think this review is helpful.
