Any honest opinions on adult women wearing bandanas? I reeeallly don't have time to fix my hair, but I feel kinda silly in them.

I was thinking of finding a cute dark one for labor to hide my hair, but I don't want to look back at the pics and think I look ridiculous in it either.

Anyone seen any good SAHM-friendly ones lately?

I really like the really wide hairbands, sort of like this one:

They are a little more updated than the bandana but do basically the same thing. My MIL brought some for the girls from Mexico and they are perfect for their super thick hair.

Wait, these are much more like what I mean:

I think they stay on better than bandanas, too because of the elastic.

I'm not sure how I feel about them in general, but I did notice this one in the Lands End overstocks the other day and thought the pattern was cute:

Hahaha...it's the only way I'm able to get in public with the twins. I have one from J Crew that is a wide fabric headband gathered into an elastic that goes underneath the hair. I wear it ALL the time. I don't care if it looks stupid but I think it's cute. I need to get more.

Melanie, that etsy link didn't work...can you post it again? Now I'm thinking I really need more since I wear the same damn thing every day.

Ok, it's weird because the link was working but not anymore. Now I can't find the store at all doing the same search either....
here are some others similar:

I have 2 from this seller. She has a nice variety. I mainly use them for yoga class but I think they would be cute to wear otherwise as well.

I could never pull off that look. But, if you like it then go for it!
