I see headbands everywhere. From school to malls.. yeah anywhere. I think it's getting "in" again. Well I must say that even I myself is also wearing different kinds of headbands not only due to fashion but also a necessity to take my hair off my face HAHAHA I love Nancy Drew and maybe it is a part of myself wanting to copy her wide headbands but I settle for slim headbands.. I just don't feel like wearing wide headbands very often hehe Blair Waldorf of Gossip Girl is also an inspiration to many girls. Her preppy style is so glamorous and really looks elegant. In every episode, she has a new headband to pair with her outfit. A real fashion icon indeed. :) Now, do you love wearing or even seeing people wearing their headband? Or are you the type who is easily irritated by fashion? :))

I would love to wear headband and I really think that it looks cute on some girls. But the funny thing is, I have a prominent forehead. I don't think wearing a headband would make me look better. I do settle for the ponytail. :)

Don't laugh, I do wear head bands and I'm actually wearing one right now! My hair has grown long, as that's what I prefer. I wear one since it covers my face, be it inside or outside the house. I never bother if it's IN right now, I don't really care what others would think of me as well. As long as I'm comfortable, then I would wear it..

hey I think it does not really depend if it's in or not.. because comfort means a lot right? sorry but I started giggling the moment I saw your first line here :P

I think headbands have been in fashion for a few years now. But because of the explosion of Gossip Girls they have become increasing popular. I wear headbands all the time because I have short hair and it keeps my hair in place.

yes that is so true. The gossip girl fever is really creating a big impact on people especially girls! :)

I like wearing headbands as I find them a great alternative to wearing my hair down, but out of my face. I usually like to tie my hair up when I am at work, but my husband does like me to wear my hair down. So headbands work well for me. I don't tend to be a slave to fashion, I tend to be a fan of comfort more than anything else.

Yes, I love wearing it. Sometimes I wear it to pair it with my outfit, and other times I wear it to keep my hair off in my face esp. when I am working or cooking. It was really annoying when you're working and your hair is on your face, I can't concentrate on what I am doing. Actually, I am wearing one right now, If I didn't my hair will be in my face because there is an electric fan slightly behind me, hehe :D

I haven't tried scarves as a headband since I don't have any but I saw many Hollywood celebrities like Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton wore them and it looks really nice :)

I go through stages where I love to wear one and where I don't wear one. My oldest use to wear hers all of the time and it was really cute on her. She has one of the wide ones. I think they look good and they definitely help to keep your hair out of your face.

I use to wear my hair up in a ponytail around the house but since I got it layered it doesn't work as well. The only headbands I have around the house are the plastic ones and they hurt my head after awhile. I may buy some of those soft ones and try that. I like to keep my hair out of my face while I'm doing housework, reading, painting, and stuff.

i also love to wear headband, that's one thing fashion for me, i buy different colors matching my outfit. i have wide headbands too but not too wide since i don't have thick hair and wearing wide headband will make me look funny. i have slim headbands, my favorite is the white one with stones and about i inch in width. it makes perfect blend to any clothes i wear.

I do not wear any headband nor hairband. We do not like to be restricted. I feel my hair feels the same. It becomes rather "rigid" with the headband. I prefer to let my hair loose. It is more relaxing that way, I feel.

I'm not comfortable wearing a headband even I hook in sport or exercise activities it make my sweat from my head so sticky which I won't have for long duration of time. I kept myself free my head from anything apparel that could cover and make me not convenient.

I wear headbands almost everday, and I like to match them to what I'm wearing, I own tons of headbands. They are really good if I don't feel like doing my hair. I just wash, blow dry and throw on a headband.

I personally don't wear headbands at all, but I have like 50 friends that love them and wear them with every fashion design imaginable lol. They often ask me if it looks good or not, and there's not really anything i can say because I don't really know how to judge a headband :P

i like wearing head bands. even before it was going back 'in' again. hehehehe... its good because like you said it keeps your hair off of the face, and it could also be used as a fashion statement. but more necessity than for fashion in my case if i dont want to tie my hair. i like wearing the wide headbands, i feel like i look weird wearing a slim band... but i dont wear head bands always because i get headaches due to the ends of each side of the band if i wear them too long. i dont know why though.

I bought a few headbands last year after I noticed that they were being sold in stores again. I like the wide ones and they can't bee too tight-fitting or else they give me a headache. I have a few cute, funky ones that I wear every once in a while.

i super love headbands! i actually have a huge collection of it. Everytime i go to the mall I never tend to forget buying one. My mom's even got mad at me because I'm just buying them but I don't wear them. :) I enjoy it's cute design especially if it has a big ribbon or something on it. And my friends usually borrow and mix and match it with their clothes :)
