So i am facing an issue that is annoying me more and more,

it has to do with the fact i sweat quite a lot in my head area. especially since i shave my head, sweat has no hair to stick to. every drop of sweat rolls down directly into my eyes. It gets even more annoying because it also ruins my vision through glasses if i dont wipe it every few minutes.

Any ideas? especially headbands that dont look super weird bald?

There are some really nice running cap options. Running caps have a built in sweat band, are very light, breathable, easy to put on/take off, and they can be washed rather easily too. You can have several and swap them out quickly if they get sweat soaked. You can wear the bill in front or back, and it can block out glaring light too. Running caps have come a long way because of the growing interest in marathon running world wide.

Headband, period. Bandanas won't absorb as much, running caps are joke really. I've been there since I'm bald now, plus wearing glasses does not help with sweat pouring over them. There's nothing better than headbands, get 3 or 4 of them per session, you'll thank me. I don't care looking stupid with them, I just care for my sight.

i got the same issues.

I use these because the don't compress hard and are cheap. You'll need a couple per session or wring it often.

i buy the cheap ones from Ali .
Been using them for years.
I bring 5 or 6 to the club night
and depending on the temperatures and my
level of activity i use 1 or all of them.
I deposit the wet ones into a special zip bag, at home I rinse them thoroughly with water and hang them in the hot-cupboard to dry.
Ever so often i toss them into the wash.

It is this or no play. 1 drop of sweat onto my glasses and.............well, I canny play blind 😁

Caps are not allowed.

I bought a headband and it actually made me sweat more under it, but I have sweat drop down into my eyes in rare instances. I usually wipe the sweat off with my wrist band. I never use my towel break lol No one in practice would complain if you used a towel frequently and if it was an official match with strict umpiring you can ask the umpire for permission outside of towel breaks.
