My absolute favorite — and until now, pretty secret — source for head coverings is this little Etsy store called Specifically Random, run by an awesome woman named Kelly.
She makes “headbands” which are like a pre-tied. They come in super cute and fun patterns!
I always buy her 15″ extra wide headbands, since they can easily cover all of my hair — especially when I put it in a pony tail (my hair is pretty long).
If you want something to just cover the front part of your head, her standard 5-inch headbands will be fine for that.
All headbands come in sizes S thru XL, and you measure your head to pick your size — so you know you’re getting just the right fit.
Kelly’s patterns are great and her workmanship is incredible. She makes them all herself and stands by every one. If something isn’t right, she will make it right! (Although I highly doubt that will have to happen.)
Once, I ordered a different fabric than I normally get and felt my regular size medium was a big too snug on my big noggin. She refunded my money, no questions asked and even reimbursed me for the cost of return shipping.
Now that you know how much I love this store, you are really going to LOVE hearing this!
Thru Monday, November 3oth, *EVERYTHING* at Specifically Random is marked down 40%. Even the items that were already on 50% clearance are marked down another 40%. All prices are as marked.
Even better, because I really love this store, I reached out to Kelly and asked if there was anything special she could do for my readers and do you know what she said? “How ’bout FREE SHIPPING?!”
You can bet I was all.over.that!
To score FREE shipping on every head scarf you order, just use the coupon code KOABFREESHIP at checkout. You must remember to use that code or your shipping won’t be free!
The extra-wide headbands that I prefer are as low as $7.20, regularly $24.
She also has turban-style headbands, which would be perfect for with a fall or sheitel.
Because I love you, I snapped some selfies to show you the way the 15″ covers all my hair when fully open (Note that I usually do wear it a bit scrunched up, which is why it looks a little wrinkled). Do you know how hard it is to take a selfie of the back of your head?!?!
Disclosure: I reached out to Kelly about promoting this fantastic sale on KOAB because I personally love her product so much — and thought some of you might feel the same way. She offered me a small bonus in exchange for posting — I will earn a small commission on every headband sold. But I would have told you about this sale regardless of the commission because her headbands rock my socks. I wanted you to know that. Find out more in my Disclosure Statement.
Thanks for this one, I just ordered two for my 11 year old with crazy curly hair that nothing holds. I’m hoping that these will help with some of the morning fights, i.e., her saying, “Mom my hair looks fine,” and me cringing!
