Headphone-Integrated Headbands

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Bandora Hair Band Has Been Made to Accommodate You in Two Ways

— March 3, 2013 — Fashion
Not one, but two features of the Bandora Hair Band stand out as pretty nifty. One of them makes the fashion accessory more comfortable to wear and the other accommodates the desire to don additional doodads.

Made by Quirky, the product comprises nylon, silicone and an impressive Plasticote interior. That third material is extremely flexible, permitting the user to mold her piece of hair flair to the precise shape of her cranium. First, trim the tips of the hair band if the plastic is too long and then pop the bowed object in the microwave for just 10 seconds. Remove it, put it on, and quickly conform it to the curve of your head.

The Bandora Hair Band comes in a set of three and includes smooth end caps through which you can feed your earbuds.
Trend Themes
1. Comfort-focused Fashion Accessories - The Bandora Hair Band demonstrates a trend towards fashion accessories that prioritize comfort and customization.
2. Flexible and Moldable Materials - The use of Plasticote in the Bandora Hair Band highlights the trend of incorporating flexible and moldable materials into product design.
3. Multifunctional Wearable Technology - The integration of headphone compatibility in the Bandora Hair Band reflects the trend of wearable technology serving multiple purposes.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Accessories - The Bandora Hair Band aligns with the fashion accessories industry, presenting opportunities for innovative designs that combine style and functionality.
2. Materials Manufacturing - The use of innovative materials like Plasticote in the Bandora Hair Band creates opportunities for disruption in the materials manufacturing industry.
3. Wearable Technology - The headphone-integrated headband concept opens up possibilities for the wearable technology industry to explore new ways of integrating technology into fashion accessories.
