    I use a bandana.Fold it into a triangle, then fold the long side over two or three times to give it bulk and add more fabric to absorb the sweat. my Bandana act as a poor man's skull cap.

    The downside with my bandana is that I need to go one size larger on my helmet.

    I think a Bondi Band is what I got at a race expo last year and I love it, too. I wasn't going to chime in because there's no brand name on it and I didn't know what it is.

    My problem is most headbands give me headaches. I can't take much compression on my skull. The thing is so light that when I bought it, I didn't know if it was going to do any good, but it sure does. It isn't an issue for me on the bike, between the helmet, evaporation, and the wind pushing sweat back towards my ears - but it sure is running, and that headband is great.

    I have the same issue with headbands causing headaches and falling off. But the Bondi Bands are light and they stay on. These have been really great.
