Headband Review Video and Giveaway

Over the past several months, I've come to be in possession of three different kinds of headbands...


  • Sandra at Absolutely Narcissism felt embarrassed sorry for me after I posted my crazed Einstein hair look and sent me a Lululemon headband to help tame the insane mane,
  • Megan gave away SparklySoul headbands on her blog WatchMeGoRun a few months ago, and I won the giveaway, and
  • I met Sandy who makes BIC Bands when I was in Las Vegas to visit Denny's during the RockNRoll Half-Marathon and she asked if I'd like to try out her wares...of course I said "YES!" as it was the very first time someone has offered me something super cool to try out! Thanks so much, Sandy :)
Today I present them to you in my Headband Review Video...omg... super lame... but I know y'all have been missing my lovely voice and wrinkly hands... here's two minutes of viewing and listening pleasure...

(FYI... there is an audio issue halfway into the video...I'm trying to fix it so don't rag on me)

Okay, the audio isn't working for me. If it's working for you...AWESOME. If not, I go on to say that all three headbands worked well...except for that speed issue with the first one. If I had to pick one of the three I couldn't do it because I liked them all equally well. The determining factor would be price and stylistic preference, and I was too lazy to find the prices before I made the video. So that's what I said.

I'm such a dork.

Now up for grabs is the awesome, no-slip, black sparkly BIC Bands headband pictured below. Enter to win one to try out for yourself!


If you'd like to enter this giveaway simply tell me so in a comment below :) You could be nice and "like" Sandy's BIC Bands FB page or follow my blog somehow, but none of that is mandatory. Do leave a comment, though, if you want to enter... telepathic entries will not be accepted. 


Entries close Friday January 20th at midnight. Winner announced Saturday.

  2. For all your male readers, may I introduce the dudeband:

    1) Don't take the crappy white cotton tee out of your race goodie bag and clean your wheels. Instead, keep it.
    2) Cut both sleeves off at shoulder seam.
    3) Mount to head, sleeve hem first
    4) Roll the balance of the sleeve/headband in on itself to give you the amount of width you are looking for - I go for about 4 inches.
    5) headband holds earbuds in perfectly
    6) Sunglasses should be worn OUTSIDE the band.

    Not to steal any thunder but I'll be launching an old white t-shirt giveaway on my blog tomorrow.

  11. lol at Patrick's comment. Knowing him, he'll charge extra for laundered head bands or would he charge extra for sweaty ones :-).

  12. Sweet! I usually wear the fat headbands, a thinner one might be nice. :)
    Also, I have a couple of bondi bands just sitting here (they just don't do it for me. and make me look like a man.) so if you want to try one of those as well, say the word.

  13. BIC or Dudeband™? So unfair to have to choose. Maybe I'll win both?

  14. Super cool blog! New follower... found you thru Tough Chik!

  15. One can never have enough Bic Bands! Love them!

  16. Seriously - if one of the guys wins, you should send it to them and get them to post a pic of them with it on! Kovas would probably cheat and put it on his wife, but I'm betting the other two would be game. LOL

    Hey, I really would like to try one of these out. :) Don't want my own "Einstein hair" shot.

  17. I would love to win one of these...I LOVE sparkly headbands!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I need to start a search for the perfect headband for me and I'd love to start my quest with this one!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I would LOOOOOVE to win a BIC band! Seriously though! I have total hair chaos and can't seem to find a good, no-slip band to tame the mane. Loved your review, thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Oh, and of course for an extra entry to the giveaway, of course I follow your blog :) Staple of my day. Cheers to you for keeping on keeping on.

  21. And I like BIC bands on Facebook too. Who wouldn't with the sparkle power they provide. Hoping to try one out. I've spent mad cash on bands, all to disappoint. Hoping the BIC band is the answer to my hair chaos needs.

  28. Oh, and not that it "helps" the odds, but follow you on Twitter (@melissyk) and already like BIC Bands - in that stalker-but-not-a-weirdo-just-wanna-win-one kind of way :)
