For a while I was using those very eighties sweatbands to hold back hair/wick away sweat during workouts, but Fit2BMom’s headband ($8 at Fit2BMom) is simply better.

Instead of wearing a bulky piece of terrycloth reminiscent of a tennis match from 25 years ago, the Fit2BMom band is slim and sleek, lays flat, and soaks up sweat as well as its towel-y counterpart.

Of course, if you’re not the headband type, you could always just use a few of these snap clips ($2.39 for 6 at Drugstore.com) to keep hair from creeping out of your ponytail.
