Men's hairbands

DS has grown his hair, and would appreciate some of the type of hairband worn by men (thinking footballers or Giovanni from BakeOff) to hold the wild tresses back on occasion. Not ponytail / manbun bands - sort of male Alice bands if that makes sense

Where to get them from? Usual sort of suppliers - Boots etc - don't seem to stock male versions.

DS has these. They hold his really thick curly hair back very well.

The only person who can carry this off is Jack Grealish

zigzag hairband
probably sold in Superdrug, Boots, Wilko etc

It's not so much a male version, it's one that's strong enough and flexible enough?

I bought some Scuni ones from Boots a while ago , flexible plastic covered in either blonde/brown/black faux hair to make them invisible of you wanted .
Zig-Zag design with good grippy 'teeth'
Really effective and no temple pinching .

Might be wrth a search ( I cannot find on Boots or Amazon sites though)

Lots of quite curly hair, VERY big head (wore adult sized hats as a 3 year old), very minimalist in terms of possessions (so is more likely to be happy with 1 or 2 that are strong andreally work, and wear them to death).

It's a practical thing not a style one, tbh - he's not a stylish person (luckily, because he is unusually tall and unusually thin so has no choice of clothes in most high street shops). For some of the things he does, the Highland Cow look isn't practical.

There are men around who carry it off far better than Jack Grealish 😂

Asos (mens section) - I would expect to find them there!
