headbands

Forehead fabric loops

Headbands are strips of fabric, elastic, or rigid material worn around the head, typically to hold hair back from the face or absorb sweat during exercise: She wore a headband to keep her hair out of her eyes while running.

Headbands also serve as fashion accessories or indicate group membership, as in sports teams.

In bookbinding, a headband is decorative stitching at the top of a book's spine.
