I'm looking for the type of headband that holds long(er) hair back not the sweatband type. I've seen some female runners wear ones that are essentially like a coolmax fabric loop and that would be fine. I just don't know where to purchase one. Any ideas? thanks. dari

I use Goody No Slide Headbands. They aren't coolmax, but are elastic with a little rubber sewn in to keep them from sliding off. They keep all the sweaty flyaway hairs out of my face. I won't work out without one on! They make them with thick or thin elastic, but I prefer the thick kind for running. I got them at CVS, but I think most drugstores and Target/Walmart would carry them. They might make some kinds with fabric too.

Do you mean the mini headbands that are about as wide as a shoelace?

i got one from Atalanta for free when I ordered a running skort from them -- my hair is short, but i like it. http://www.skirtgoddess.com/products/verve Athleta has some too. http://www.athleta.com/jump.jsp?itemType=CATEGORY&itemID=346&LeftNavToExpandID=342 (look at the bottom) I assume this is what you're talking about?
