5 out of 5 starsI L😍VE it! I wear it all the time. I secure it to my hair with a kirby grip on either side and it stays in place all day. Its incredibly comfortable and sits against the head very gently making it a pleasure to wear. Perfect in every way! Thank you! 😁😊x

5 out of 5 starsThis was a lovely little bag, but smaller than expected so I couldn't use it for the birthday gift I wanted to use it for. However I love it & will use it for a smaller future gift. 🙂

5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely love this. It’s my second Able Mabel headband and I’m sure I will be getting more. They are so beautiful and comfortable. Emily was so helpful, as there was a problem with my address which she very kindly fixed for me. Thank you! x

5 out of 5 starsI’ve bought three of these headbands already and they are stunning, the design, the fabric choice and the variety. Emily is super helpful and knowledgeable about fabric she has chosen. I’ve worn the headbands for special occasions and for the normal day.
