Halo Headband Skull Cap - Ultimate Sweat Absorbing Lightweight Performance Skull Cap for Running, Cycling, Workouts & Outdoor Sports

As someone who reads all of the reviews for a product before I purchase it, I want my reviews to be as authoritative as possible for future buyers. Therefore, I wait until I have used a product several times before posting a review of it. I have now used this product for over 500 miles of bike rides in the past 45 days of summer in Central Florida.To be succinct.....this product works splendidly!I am a person who sweats profusely, especially my head. I once worked up a sweat replacing a lightbulb in a walk-in freezer.When riding my bike, I used to take along two water bottles. I used one for drinking and one for rinsing the sweat from my eyes. Then I saw another rider at a rest break wearing one of these and quickly looked it up on Amazon as soon as I got to a computer. Reading all of the reviews, I purchased this style and also purchased the one that ties in the back. The reviews mentioned that this style made someone's head hurt and that it left a mark across their forehead.The first time I wore it, I had a little discomfort and it did leave an indentation mark in my forehead that lasted for about 30 minutes. About the same time as a "bedhead" wrinkle from a pillowcase lasts on me. I then did the "unthinkable" (at least for me) and read the directions. Placing the sweat deflector where it was supposed to go, relieved any discomfort I previously felt and the mark lasted only about 15 minutes. Plenty of time for it to disappear before I got to my favorite post ride watering hole. Most remarkable aspect of my experience with this product is that it performs magnificently! NO SWEAT in my eyes PERIOD! No dangling drop of sweat on the end of my nose. PLUS when I take a break and remove the cap for a few minutes and then put it back on, it is like sticking my head in a bucket of ice! Bicycle riding in Central Florida in August and September, this extra benefit is a welcome relief.I also use it to work in the yard and any other jobs or activities, such as golf, where I have been plagued by sweat running into my eyes and also ruining caps and hats.I now know what to get as gifts for my hot-headed friends.P.S. I also have a rather large head and the one size on this fits perfectly for me; after I read the directions on its correct placement. You do NOT need to pull it down flush with the top of your head. Indeed, it actually works better for air flow if you have some "slack" in the top of the cap instead of pulling it down to your ears.
