Bandeaus headbands are classic headbands historically revered by fashion designer Miuccia Prada who made the functional yet fashion forward hair accessories a foundation accessory for her previous fashion show designs.  

The bandeau headband has been around for ages but regularly pops back into huge shifts of popularity.  Even when the fashionistas have moved on to other types of headbands, the bandeau is considered appropriate for just about any type of hair style or fashion event, except maybe a wedding. 

Bandeaus can be worn equally as successfully by men as women.  Men may deploy them for sports or when trying to emulate Ashton Kutcher who has a bandeau collection.   

The bands are equally fabulous for children and even babies can tolerate a pint sized version of the headband currently being worn by the beautiful women on Mad Men on AMC.

There are many advantages to the bandeau style headband which is available in every imaginable color, fabric, design, width and pricepoint.  

Some of the advantages of the functional yet fashionable headband are listed below:

1.   Instantly tames wild and wooly bangs.
2.   Easilyy adjusts to any head size and/or shape.
3.   Provides a soft, silky, sensuous feeling
