    I like the Goody StayFit ones (more)!
    Those are the ones I have and really like. My only complaint is that they stretch out really quick. While they're still new and tight, they work perfectly.

    Bump and looking to read other recommendations as well.

    These are what I use too... just throw them in the wash and they shrink back up!

    I used to have the same problem, no matter what brand I bought.
    Until someone told me to use a little hairspray. Seriously. It's been a lifesaver.

    I don't wear headbands, so I can't help. But the mental picture that has been created in my mind (of a bunch of women with headbands shooting off their heads) is fantastic!

    nothing stretchy stays on my head. It must be oddly shaped. :-/

    I just load up on those little bendy clips

    I use http://www.bondiband.com/ as seen in my pro pic. I stayed put during my 5k and you can play with the size.

    I wear the thin Under Armour ones and wash them in a little bag. You can get them at Modell's or on Amazon.

    Another vote for sweaty bands! I love them! They are the only ones I've found that will stay on my head. They have velvet/velour on the underside and that makes it grip to your hair w/o pulling. They don't leave creases on my hair, which I think is becuase of the velour and becuase they are 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.
    I used one to run a half marathon and it stayed in place no problem! They also have some for smaller heads which are essentially smaller/tighter for people who have little heads.
    There are all kinds of cute designs, even some cute sparkly ones I've worn if I wanted to pull my hair back when I went out to dinner or something :)

    Under Armour here as well. I have the opposite problem in that I have a pretty small head (I can wear kid-sized hats!) so bands won't stay tight on my head. The UA ones have been great.

    I have one similar to the Sweaty Bands that I used for my half marathon in February (under my visor to keep the flyaways out of my face) and it worked pretty well too.

    I have had good luck with the Bondi Bands. Well, except I never remember where I put them.

    Another vote for Sweatybands. They are the only headbands that I have found that do not slip.

    I wear a hat a lot of times- I have just a basic stretchy one- that at this point has stretched probably past it's life.

    But if you are at all handy- using a velvet under the inside is much like using glue only it's grippy without trearing- they work really well- my hair dresser swears by them.

    I don't have much of an issue- so I wasn't paying 15$ for a headband- but it's just velvet on the inside- and works great.

    I have two of these

    They are great. Always stay in place and does the job of keeping the sweat off!

    Plus the rubber strip on the back sort of seals to my forehead, no sweat is getting through it!

    Strawberry Revolutions TrueFit bands are amazing. I even have their studio tie backs for every day casual wear. So good! And they are all handmade here in the USA.
