so i see alot of headwraps around but i cant really think of the use for one other than to keep paint out of your hair if you're not wearing a hat. i have got one myself and i am yet to use it. i only really have it mainly because i reckon it makes me look the part. can anyone tell me the proper use of them? o_O(n)

stops our bald heads getting sunburnt and getting goggle strap tan lines and they're lighter and more breathable than caps.

Use mine to soak up sweat, keep the sun off me a bit, and to get just a LITTLE bit of extra padding in the hopes for a bounce.

I tried one ,found it a faff to put on, so I just use a HDE sweat band now or a planet beanie.
Talking of faffs,Predlocks ...don't bother.

Hi there... Used to wear one of these when running round the woods looking for people to shoot... Yes they look cool (Rambo style)... Yes they help keep you cool (Not as hot as a cap or beanie)...

But...

Be aware, particularly if you are folicly challenged that these will give you very little protection if you catch a close range shot in the head whilst bunkering... Doesn't look good walking into a board meeting on Monday morning with a massive weeping wound on the top of your head let me tell you...

For that reason its a beanie for me every time now

Most Sandana's are not designed for protection

I use a one and won't go away from them now, I have longer hair so keeps it in check and mine defiantly help with the sweat, plus like said before they help keep you cool, you vent a lot of heat from your head and the mesh design does not seem to retain any heat. Thumbs up on them from me
