10 Best Yoga Hair Accessories
1. Lululemon Luxtreme Training Headband, $14
A classic fabric headband is a great tool for those who deal with the sort of frizz and flyaways that tend to get in your face downward dog. Lululemon’s take features velvet lining that keeps the band in place, moisture-wicking fabric, and Lycra that helps the stretchy accessory (literally) stay in shape.
2. Lululemon Ribbed Nulu Twist-Front Headband, $22
All the benefits of a basic headband with a twist! This knotted headband is crafted from a sweat-wicking, shape-holding stretch fabric that’s butter soft for extra cozy wear.
3. Aruna Project Rita Headband, $18
These non-slip headbands from Aruna Project are made from recycled polyester. The extra-wide band (eight inches, to be exact) makes it an ideal choice for those seeking to safeguard strands against damage.
4. The Hair Edit Harmony Slim Textured Headband, $12
Should your silken lengths cause even the tightest headband to slip out of place, this option from The Hair Edit is the yoga hair accessory for you. Non-slip grips along the inside of the band keep it from budging, while the textured material absorbs sweat and moisture.
