Harder ends with glue [SEP] These hairbands have a plastic interior. They are thinner in width and have enough gives that they work well for both children and adult heads. While the plastic is covered in a soft material that is ruched, the ends are a little bit harder. They have been folded but there is some glue and they aren’t completely without flaw.  I would say quality falls into the average lane.  Some of them have more glue visible than others but overall they’ve been done well enough. The key for the area that goes behind the ears is to position it so it’s not directly on the skin but more on hair. Another thing I like about these hairbands is that the set contains a large variety of colors.  Literally any outfit color or style should have a match in this set.
