Active Bands fall under that second category. Odds are if I’m running then I have a headband on. Over the last few months I’ve probably bought 15 or so of these bands. I’ve even started wearing them outside of running, just a way to spruce up my regular braid or ponytail.

Ok, you get the point. I wear them all the time because I’m too lazy to really fix my hair I think they’re super cute, they don’t slip, and they don’t give me headaches.
Recently, I had mentioned that I sported the pink one in this months issue of Womens Health Magazine. Active Bands reached out to me with a fun way to celebrate being in the magazine. They’ve offered up a $100 gift card to their online store. Their prices are super reasonable,so that will pretty much be an entire headband wardrobe.

I would LOVE to have the glitter combo!!
I like the glitter combo and the ones with polka dots.
I'm now following them on twitter.
I think they should add more argyle styles in different color combos. I only saw one argyle pattern on the site.

I think these would be great to dress up my daughter's boring old ponytail everyday to school too.
I love the flower combo pack.
Thanks for the headband suggestion — I've not found a good one to use and end up putting 4 or 5 clips in my hair. If I won the gift card, I would stock up on the muti packs. I love the glitter combo pack, and it is sure to offer a headband to match every outfit.
Thanks again for the product suggestion and giveaway!

What a great giveaway! I need some GLITTER in my life! Black would be a good one.
I'm now following on Twitter. : )
I'm with Kandi- argyle would be a good style to add.
I changed my mind… I need one of the paisley ones!
I would like more lime green and pink color combos – maybe argyle or paisley or dots or something. I also am a HUGE fan of the bandana print so maybe having that print in other colors besides just red (which is super awesome). I think it might be fun to have some sayings. What about one with a princess tiara??? Fun!
I love active bands!!!!

I just cut bangs, so I really need headbands now to keep them out of my eyes while I run (nothing worse than sweaty bangs stuck to forehead!). I like all things glittery so the teal glitter band was my favorite followed by the silver.
In the future, I'd love to see some argyle patterns for the thick bands.

They have so many choices, it's hard to imagine what else they could have. But maybe some sports teams logos/color themes could be cool so I can keep my hair out of my face at those windy football games and show my team pride.

Do they have thicker glitter bands? I don't think I saw any. I like the thin ones, but the thick would be cool, too.

I hope it's okay that instead of commenting about what colors/styles I'd like to see in the future, I'll say instead what I'd like to see them change about the website… I like the variety of styles that they have. The problem is that from the small pattern it's hard for me to vizualize what it will look like as an actual headband. I know this would take more work, but it would be great to see actual photos of the headbands.
I'd love the fushia glitter one and then get one or 2 little girl ones for my daughter!
