Curly Thick Hair - Medium Headband - Hand-Wrapped Solids (Original, Sandstone)

I have a slightly large head but this headband makes me feel petite. If I look down too fast it will fall off my head. I do like the concept and may buy another one in the smaller sized version.

Not as exciting as had hoped based on a tiktok recommendation.

My 2c-3a curls are super soft with no product in my hair, and this headband doesn’t flatter. I have not tried it with volumizing mousse. It does hurt my head after a few hours. The craftsmanship and look of it is good. But for my big head and productless hair, it looks like a square atop my head. My guess is that it will camouflage better when I put curl cream or mousse in my hair.

I've been trying to wear my hair in its natural 2A-2B wavy state. I saw these headbands mentioned in a wavy hair group that I'm in, and picked up a few to try. This cloth-wrapped version stays in my fine hair much better than the plain plastic version. It's also much more comfortable than a regular headband, and doesn't pinch behind your ears at all - it really is just like pushing your sunglasses up on your head, which I do all the time. However... it looks weird. Nobody has a square-shaped head, so the fact that this headband has squared off corners is very strange. And I chose the "nude" color because it seemed closest to my hair color, but really none of the options are a good match for my hair. So I mostly just use it at home, I probably wouldn't wear it out.

I like the concept of this. The corners at the top are a little awkward as they are square so they do stick out a bit, but the concept is good.

If I could give this product zero stars I would. Total waste of time and money. What makes this even worst is that in order to return this product back you need to pay to return it yourself. I’m totally upset that this product, it did not lived up to the hype it showed and the fact that I can’t return this unassuming and underwhelming product with out having more money taken out of my pocket is even more aggravating. For those still reading and have really curly hair like I do please hear when I say “DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY ON THIS”!!!

(See my review on YouTube).My first review after I bought the slim fit: The "slim fit"description is confusing. The word "slim" suggests it would be a smaller fit for smaller heads.On the site it says slim fit is actually better for larger heads or heads with a lot of curly hair. I wasn't going to get the slim based on that since my head is on the smaller side and I don't have thick, curly hair, but then I read that a couple of reviewers said the slim was a good fit their smaller heads. Maybe they had big hair, I don't know, but for me, the slim is too big. It falls off every time I look down.I found out after receiving the item and writing to Zazzy Bandz that the width dimensions on both the original and slim are the exact same, so I have no idea how the slim is different. I'm going to order the original and see if that fits better, but I'm guessing it won't. Will post a review on that after I receive it.Suggestion to makers of this band: Have a small, medium and large size with varying widths to reflect each size.Update after I received the original fit: OK, so the original fit is much better than the slim fit for me. It stays on, is comfortable and so far no headaches. I'm a fan! I changed my rating from 3 stars to 5 stars, but I still think the description should be a bit clearer regarding the different fits.

They are made a lot like eye glasses, but if they curved in a little at the ends like glasses do, hugging the head, they would stay on better. Also, I'm sure they're great for curly or thick hair, but for people with flat, straight hair they just look weird on.
