Halo HeadbandSkull Cap with Tail

This keeps the sun off your neck and the sweat off your brow. It's lightweight enough I can feel a breeze through it and doesn't get in the way. I liked it enough after a week that I bought another one.Not sure if your supposed to, but I also will let it soak in the ice chest for a bit then wring it out and put it on. Feels great

I hate the sun. I hate being sunburned, the sun just striking my skin makes me sweat, and I survived one type of cancer and have no desire to take a chance with skin cancer. At the same time, I'm a cyclist and occasional runner and so I'm out in the sun a lot. I used to put a handkerchief under my hat to cover my neck and part of my face, but this product works much better! The cap is a one-size-fits-all. I wear 7.25 and the cap is a bit snug. Doesn't help that I've got a bike helmet tightened over it, but I wish it was a little looser. Overall, though, it's a good buy and highly recommend for keeping the sun off your neck and the sides of your face.

Best thing I bought before my first Spartan races. I wore this in Temecula, and couldn't be happier with how it kept my (bald) head and neck shaded, plus kept me cool as well. The material wicks well, wasn't a hindrance at all in the water/mud (Temecula is a relatively dry race, only went under the water twice), and it cleaned up nice. I'll be wearing this in the Vegas Super next month! I was able to put my Spartan band (with my race number) over the black part of the headband, and it fit well, wasn't too tight or too hot at all, and the wicking band in the front actually did keep sweat out of my face during the first race. My second race was on a rainy, cold day, but I wore this that day as well, and it acted as a rain/wind guard and kept my head warmer as well. Highly, highly recommend if you need something to shade your head yet keep you cool as well. I'd buy another one if they had some other colors (Halo does have other colors for the caps, but I only found white for this one with the neck shade).

This is my third Halo headband purchase, as I also have a Halo II headband and a Halo skullcap. I am a pretty heavy sweater and take long bike rides, and the Halo skullcap and this Halo Solar Headwear work in keeping the sweat out of my eyes and off my sunglasses. I wear it so the the black headband is right over my eyebrows - as low as possible. I rarely have sweat bother me anymore. I really like the additional sun protection of the Solar Headwear, giving my neck just bit more protection. I use this when I take rides lasing more than a couple hours for the additional protection. The downside is my fellow riders asking me why I'm sporting a white cape under my helmet. This "cape" also doesn't do much sun protecting when riding quickly and I still apply sunscreen on the back of my neck. As others have pointed out, the headband does leave a slight indentation on your forehead that is not at all noticeable unless looking in a mirror. It does not irritate, hurt, itch or otherwise annoy me when riding, and even is unnoticeable under my helmet. But, the line does take a bit of time to disappear. I do wish that the Solar Headwear had the ties like the Halo skullcap does, making it a bit more adjustable, but it seems to fit pretty good regardless. I have a 7 7/8 hat size. Overall, I recommend it to anyone looking to keep the sweat out of their eyes and the sun off their neck.

I bought this item thinking it nwould not be comfortable but it very much is and I am going to buy more because sometimes a lot of things we buy ends up disappearing and we can't buy it anymore. No matter how much we enjoy or like it or how beneficial it is. The only downside is they did have black.And now it's just 2 colors, white and camouflage.But it is very comfortable and if you like wearing headgear to help keep the sweat from going onto your bike helmet this is it right here!

Headband is okay. The biggest issue I had was that it was too tight around my head. The silicon band to keep it in place is good in theory, but it left a huge mark around my head after only being worn for about thirty minutes. It did not mesh well with my bicycle helmet either.

I use regularly all year around. I hand wash it and let it air dry. Summer - Protects my neck, sides and ears from sunburn. Winter - Protects under my hat from cold on head and ears when working outdoors.

Ordered this with the anticipation that perhaps it wouldn't work for me and I'd end up returning it. But it works great - better than I expected so definitely keeping it. I like that it is super light weight and covers my head and serves as both some sun protection and, best of all, absorbs/wicks sweat and keeps it out of my face. Sometimes wear it when hiking in the mountains and the flap/tail keep sun off my neck and keeps mosquitos, flies and gnats from trying to get into my ears. Might give this a try when playing basketball outdoors on a sunny day sometime as well. I also really like the stark white color with the contrasting front black headband area. Looks pretty sharp.
