As a person with long, curly and frizzy hair, I have always experienced the challenge of keeping my hair out of my face. 99% of the time, you will see me wearing a ponytail or bun with a headband just to make it go away. So naturally, this problem is also experienced during my spa services.
When you purchase headbands for your clients, the goal, of course is to keep the hair back from their face and make your job easier. But how do you choose an appropriate headband? With so many styles, sizes and fabrics, how are you supposed to choose?
Well, good news - I did the research for you! The 2 features that have held true through all my trials are as follows:
1. The wider the better.
When the headband has a greater width, the chance of it sliding
back and irritating both you and your client significantly decreases. It is so annoying to wear a styled headband that always slides back. The same holds true with spa headbands. Fortunately, this isn't about fashion - it's about comfort!
2. Fabrics feel so much nicer than disposables.
While the disposable headbands may seem more sanitary, all you need to do is thoroughly wash each band to ensure it is acceptable for your clients' use. While cost-effective, many of the disposable headbands look cheap and can feel itchy. I think we can all agree that microfiber, terry and velour are significantly more comfortable than a paper hybrid. No 2 people have the same size head, so disposable headbands will never fit all of your clients the same. Many of the fabric headbands have either Velcro or snaps, thus making a custom fit to each head.
