Like the Halos but they do tend to leave a indented line on your forehead.

I like the halo, but get the one that is adjustable. The one I have stretched out right away and no longer keeps the sweat out of my eyes.

Halo is my go–to for cycling. Incredible performance, & I’m a HEAVY sweater. Yes they stretch out over time. But the helmet keeps it from dropping down into your eyes. Yes they also leave a line on the forehead for a couple hours. But they just work!

For running, I’ve had great luck with Compressport. If money was no object I’d have one or two of everything they make. They are super cooling & dry really fast. Not too tight even with a 7 1/2 head & big hair

I use Junk headbands, I imagine they're similar to Halo but I haven't had any issues stretching, but I also have a rotation of 4 and also use hats/cycling caps

I need to find that colorway.

I buy these cheap ones on amazon then throw them out when they start having the perpetual funk.

It's gotten no love around these parts, but the Sweat Gutr is IMO THE best headband, especially for heavy sweaters. It's a gutter, it doesn't saturate and it's amazing. Just buy it. Note that it's not great for cycling, if you have your head pointed down.

I used it for a while until I found out how much sweat comes out from my eyebrows haha.

I've gone through many, including Junk, Halo, etc.

Ultimately, I've settled on these headbands I stole from my wife: Hippie Runner. You just have to search for some that are not super effeminate (they DO make plain colored ). The are very inexpensive, they are quite thin fabric, but they can be adjusted to covered a larger portion of the forehead/hairline and actually soak up quite a bit. I've used them for distances up to 50K.

a buddy got me using these generic cloth headbands that you can get super cheap on Amazon and you might even have one or more laying around as they're given out at races quite often. you basically fold them twice to get them to be roughly the width of a headband and you're done. they've done wonders for me in this stupid hot south florida weather which my trusty headsweat visors have been unable to do anything about. i bought a bunch of them and just throw them in with the athletics in the wash

+1 on the Compressport headband. I am sweat a lot and I use them on my long runs and they are great even when I ran in 26 degrees Celsius on a long run.

I think these are by far the best: https://de.aliexpress.com/...1.0.0.7d3b4c4d7g66eo

Exactly the same as the XBionic Version just 1/3 the prize and MUCH better than the compresssport ones.

They can soak up so much sweat that you can wring them out without feeling too wet on the skin.

I just use one of the many free Buffs I've gotten at events; it's big enough to cover my ears & hold the earphones in place too. I guess you can cut it to whatever size you want too.
