Headband sugestion

[Taute]

Hello! It may sound funny, but I tend to sweat a lot, and I also wear glasses. Because of this, I need a headband.
I tried several options from Aliexpress, several more expensive options (Butterfly, Donic), but..I was not satisfied with any of them. For a 2-hour workout, you need at least 2-3..playing table tennis.
I'm curious: do many of you face a similar problem? How did you adapt to it?

I bought an Adidas headband a few years ago and only wore it twice I think. It makes me sweat more. I just wipe my sweat off with the wrist band on my free arm. If that's not enough use a towel? No one in practice would mind you using it outside of towel breaks.

What's wrong with using 2-3 headbands on an evening? I see people using 2-3 shirts just the same...
I tend to just wipe my head using my shirt, but a towel would be a better idea.

I always bring lots of headbands because I also sweat a lot and wear glasses. I measure the intensity of my 2h workout by the amount of headbands I use. A good nights workout will be 5 . I just buy some of the cheap toweling headbands at Ali. They soak the sweat up nicely, cost very little and seem to last surprisingly long time

hello egghead
now that you are playing with a highly illegal billiard ball, you won't have any hair to slow down the dribble
You can see I have given this a lot of thought

I don't use personally, but many of my players do.
the solution - bring many of them, and change when ever you need to change.

this is the same as a towel. some use 1 whole day, some use 2 to 3 in the same time.

I don't use them either but people that I see using them usually have more than one and a towel too.
I'd say just changing the headband when needed might be the best option, and towel as often as you can.

Same problem for me, yes I have 10 headbands in my bag and I can change up to 4 in a 2 hr session. I found tennis headband to work better. If you have Decalthon shops locally, they do have a few colours to choose from. And yes, I've tried Donic, Xiom, Stiga, Li Ning Table Tennis headbands. Li Ning is the absolute worst of the lot. Stiga n Donic works ok.

If you are training vs a chopper and loop yourself in the head, a headband is also excellent for stopping the bleeding. I used to carry one for that purpose. Now I live in a state with zero choppers so my forehead is safe.

For sweat a towel works better. And I also wear glasses, so bring one or two cloths for cleaning the lenses when drops of sweat fall on them.

I have many in my bag and change when need

I somewhat recently started wearing heabands because I sweat a ton. Buckets worth of sweat on a regular training session. I have about 6ish headbands (can't remember the exact number on top of my head haha). One thing I learned though is that not all sweatbands are made the same. So far Nike and butterfly (the one Timo Boll wears) are the best. I bought some cheap ones from Amazon and for those sweat just goes through those like nothing and I have to replace them in 15 minutes of wearing them Invest in good headbands if you can!

Yes..I tried buying cheap options on Aliexpress..they look good, the price is not bad, but they "get wet" in the first 15 minutes
