Tie Back or Stubby???

[sulis]

I have finally decided that I am going to splurge on one of the Wickie Wear Headwraps. But I can not decide between tie back or stubby. What is your opinion? Which do you have and why do you like it?

I have a few (too many my husband thinks) of the stubby and really like it.
It fits nicely under my helmet and looks ok when you take your helmet off.
I havent tried the other styles so cant comment on them but I like the fact that the back of the stubby is lump or knot free - super comfy.

Here is mine

Those look really awesome!

So how does the ponytail holder work? Do you just stick your hair through, like through the back of a baseball cap? Or do you wrap your hair with it like a rubber band and then put the cap part on? Or is it just a hole back there?

Thanks,
Karen

The material is attached to the band all the way around apart from the little section under the stubby tail. Funnily enough I dont use the ponytail part even though I have shoulder length hair. I just find wearing the stubby holds my hair back without needing to tie it into a ponny. If you do want to use it you just put your ponytail through the little space and your set to go.

I have the not tie stubby and love it. My ponytail fits quick nicely through the opening and is wicks the sweat away.

I have often thought that when a jersey hits that point where it is not wearable for whatever reason, I would try making one of these from it.

Thanks for your suggestions. I have decided to go with the stubby. I am sooo excited.

those sure are cute!

I have the tie back ones. It's actually kind of tricky to deal with the ponytail. I need to try a stubby. I would recommend the tie ones for non-ponytail folks, and the stubby for folks with ponytails.

Does this keep your hair from getting all tangled and matted under the tail? I use a regular Do-rag tie back and tuck my tail up IN the thing trying to avoid matted hair under my tail. When I able to ride, I ride year round so the layers rubbing of jacket, vest, jersey (and sometimes even just the jersey) causes rub and matting. I'm almost ready to chop all my hair off again and start over, but then again, it took a couple years to get it this long.
