Headbands - yes or no?

Do you wear headbands and what do you think of them? I think they're having a moment, aren't they?

I like them and plan to give them a try but unfortunately (and I've always been like this) my fashion sense is not exactly daring and my workplace is quite conservative so I'm feeling unsure!

I think they had their moment a couple of years ago! I used to wear them quite regularly but not sure that they are still quite on trend....but if you like them wear them!

Oh no don't tell me I missed the boat! I didn't even notice them until recently. May wear them anyway....

Wear it anyway! I like them but I never look cool or retro,I always look very prim and sweet which, strange to say, I don't think becomes me!

I wear them in the house to keep my fringe which is growing out away from my eyes. They tend to give me a headache (in fairness I have a massive head!) And at 37 they look like I'm either a washer woman or an American older woman from the 90s who might buy quilted velvet bomber jackets and wear them with jeans and black block heels. So basically, not good.

I'm an American who's almost 50...so maybe not for me. I'm determined to try, though!

Very much in fashion right now!

Agree with PP that they've had their moment in 2019. However they're still fashionable.

I'm actually wearing one right now!

Agree peak headband has passed but I still wear them.

Try doing in a knot rather than a pretty bow to make it less twee.

I always fancy a jewelled or glittery one for Christmas parties but every one I’ve tried makes me look like a teenager
