Question for the beautifully bald

So, I'm bald and I sweat a lot. I seem to spend half of my time wiping the sweat from my eyes and face during my gym time. I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with any of the athletic skull caps? If so, which brands? I bought a cheap one but the elastic just didn't hold up, less than a month.

    I was shaved for only a short while before I grew my hair back out again, but in that time I tied a bandana around my forehead.

    I have hair and the sweat gets in my eyes. The bald guys I see sweating wear a bandana.

    I shave my head, but found the skullcaps don't work when I run. I had to go to a hat. But not sure thwt would work in a gym.

    While I am not currently bald, I have had my head shaved in the past, and I currently have short hair. The only thing that saves me is a bandana around my head and one tied around my wrist. Other wise I get blinded by sweat.

    I never thought about a bandana, I'll have to give that a try. Thanks for the replies.

    A brand called BUFF head gear. Used it for over five years. Awesome

    Also not bald but the combination of sunscreen and sweat dripping into my eyes when I run really hurts!!! I rely on a baseball-style cap. I see guys wearing them in the gym, so it might be helpful to you.
