Nicely Finished Construction
I have thin hair and I have used sweatbands for years, so I am picky about them. I ordered both black and gray Mallofusa brand headbands, and they are great. They come vacuum-packed in a plastic bag so that they take the least amount of space during shipping and storage. When the bags arrived they felt like bricks! I initially worried that the bands were so thin as packaged, that they might be flimsy or they might not absorb much sweat. But I was pleasantly surprised. Once I took them out of the bags, they fluffed up a bit. I would say they became about twice as thick. Not the plushest headbands I have used (look for the Adidas Climalite). But it turns out that that doesn't matter. The material that these are made of is very dense, which means there are a lot of absorbent fibers even in a thin garment. My first outing with them, I wore a gray one for 5 hours in South Texas summertime heat, in and outdoors. I never felt sweat rolling down past the headband, despite profuse beads of sweat on my upper forehead. At the end of the day, the material still felt soft and comfortable, and i considered using the headband another day. But the smell gives it away. These things work well, without turning all gross.No loose strands of fibers either. Deep colors and a nicely finished construction.Great elastic throughout. Fit my size 7&3/8 noggin well.All of this for $1.20 per headband? This is a tremendous value. There is no excuse to ever buy a flimsy, cheap one ever again.

Good and highly absorbent
I sweat a lot. I've tried all kinds of headbands, including the stupidly expensive halo bands. Up till now halo bands were my standard - they work OK, better than most, but I usually need to swap out a few for a bike ride. Plus they're made of synthetic fibres and begin to stink very quickly, even with frequent washing and occasional bleaching. And at 15-$20 apiece, they're ridiculously overpriced.So I decided to try something different. These are mostly cotton, so they resist stink better, and are thicker, so they're more absorbent (in theory). Well theory has been tested and these bands are really good at absorbing sweat and so far no stink. They hold more than the halo bands at a fraction of the price. Since they're thicker they don't fit quite as nicely under my bike helmet but they work well enough. And since they're cheap I don't have to worry as much about losing them.I do wish they were just slightly larger for my 22.5" circumference head - they fit but maybe a tad snug. But not tight enough to cause a headache. Otherwise, I'm buying more so I never run out!

NOT absorbent!!
I've now used a few pairs of these for a few workouts and none of them are absorbing sweat. I sweat pretty heavily and am still dripping pretty badly while wearing these. And at the end of my workouts, these things are bone dry.Maybe I got a fluke product, but I doubt it. I am very disappointed.I actually ordered the matching wristbands with this and they are just as nonabsorbent. Really frustrating. I give it 2 stars because they fit okay, but they are not useful.

Worthless - threw them away. Not absorbent.
Other headbands last about an hour before over-saturated sweat, whereas these cheap thin headbands lasted only about 5 minutes. I can't understand why anyone here says they're absorbent when they are NOT. They must not sweat at all, which makes me wonder why they wear headbands at all. Maybe just for fashion? If you need a headband to stop your sweat do NOT buy these.

Great price for functional headbands
I originally bought a different brand headband at a local store. After confirming that a headband is what I needed, I started looking for more of them at a lower price. The 10 pack of headbands had good reviews so I place my order. I have not been disappointed. From a functional standpoint, the headbands work as expected. The price per headband is extremely low. The fact that they are individually wrapped is nice if you don't plan to use them all at the same time. The grey color is a little darker than expected but I purchased this for function and not form so it doesn't bother me. The picture shows a silver headband vs a grey one from the 10 pack so I didn't expect them to be the same, but I thought grey would be a little lighter.

This is a Terrific Buy!
I live in Florida and my husband needs sweatbands like this because he does a lot of work outside and can soak through several shirts a day. These came in yesterday and he was so happy to see them! He uses two at a time. These look better than any sweatbands I have ever bought for him. These are terry cloth and very thick, the elastic has a good stretch to it. I always buy white so I can bleach them because he gets them so dirty. I don't know how they'll hold up because we just got them yesterday, but so far I'm impressed. Each one is individually packaged and the price per sweatband is better than I have seen in years. The last ones I bought were some type of polyester blend that was supposed to wick perspiration away at an exorbitant price and they were useless! If I find any problems with these I'll update my review.

They keep the forehead sweat from dripping down on to my glasses and they are comfortable!
I have a treadmill at home and walk on it at least three times each week - sweating profusely. (I never used to sweat as much when I was younger - LOL). Anyway, the head bands do exactly what I wanted - they keep the forehead sweat from dripping down on to my glasses. I really like that these are not so tight that they give me a headache - a really big plus for head bands! So far, I have washed these head bands several times and they are holding-up just fine. I recommend these because they are comfortable to ware and they do what you bought them for!

Waste of money, thin material, poor performance
They were cheap compared to other sweat bands and ...you get what you pay for. They don't work that well beyond a minimal amount of sweat. They're very thin, they hold water like a bladder and they can't hold that much to begin with because the material is so thin. Perhaps for light sweat people/activities it is sufficient. Perhaps for just an aesthetic thing. But definitely poor in terms of performance.

Theres a reason they're cheap
Bought these to use when Zwifting on the Indoor trainer,Think the 10 will last about 2 rides, they're so thin I laughed when I opened them.Luckily for me I can just swap them out as I ride and probably use 4 or 5 per ride, but if you wanted something to last an entire good workout then these aren't it.In Hindsight I would have spent a little more and got some thicker ones.I currently use a Nike sweatband and if I put this beside it it is about 4 to 5 times thinner.I'll put a picture of the Sweat band (Black) on top of the Nike Band (White)

They work well until you wash them
They work well the first couple of times but after just one wash they become a complete throwaway. I would not call these washable so therefore not really re-usable and actually not good value for the money. Will go back to just using a towel to wipe my forehead during a workout.

They work
They are sweat bands. They work. I have a Nike sweat band that I paid $8 for. It has a Nike "swoosh" symbol on it. I presume $5 or $6 of the $8 was paid for the swoosh.These sweat bands do not have a swoosh. They are also not quite as thick as the Nike band, but they absorb just as well. I might have to swap out for a new band a bit sooner than with the Nike, but there are TEN in the package... so no problem.

Fit good and absorb great.
They fit better than Under Armor's head bands and you get 10 for the price of one. These fit great and they absorbed all my sweat from my intense morning workout. They wash and dry well in the machines. Mine didn't shrink and they are super stretchy.

Great headbands!
I bought these since I'm working out at home daily now and wanted some headbands so keep the sweat from flying off my head all over the walls and floor. These do the trick. I sweat a lot, so naturally after a good 45 minute workout they're full of sweat and start dripping, but it's super easy to just take it off, wring it out in the sink and put it back on. And having 10 in a pack means I can wear a clean one every day and not have to wash them everyday. Highly recommended.
