Bondi Band Review and Giveaway


The Idea
"The simple premise of bondi band is to offer comfy, colorful, and creative headbands to fit every lifestyle and personality. By using stretchy and breathable material, we allow Bondi Bands to fit virtually every head size comfortably and fashionably." 


I'm definitely a runner. I'm not very good at sports or at weight lifting, but I love to run. Running always has a way of clearing my head and de-stressing my life. One problem I've had when I run is that my headband will start slowly sliding back and eventually I'll have to take it off and slide it back on, only to have the process start over again. I also noticed too that when I finally get back home and take my headband off, I'll have a nice "ring" on my hair where the band has been. 


This is the type of band I was using before I found bondi bands! Like I said before, this band would always slip and slide off my head and leave the "lovely" ring on my head. 

And THIS is the wicking ponytail hat I received from bondi band. I love running with this hat on. It leaves plenty of room for my ponytail but still keeps a nice grip on my head. I didn't have to adjust it once when I was wearing it! The material is also so smooth, flexible, and breathable.
 I am also one of those people who have those pesky "fly-away" hairs around my forehead. I'm always conscious about how curly and wavy their getting when I'm running, especially if it's raining. Now, with my bondi band hat, I don't have to worry about the fly-aways. 
Bondi band products would be a great gift for any runner!






Be sure to check out bondi bands for dogs, too!
