Homemade Headwraps

I traded my KP and the markers that came in return had two homemade headwraps included inside the box, a very nice gesture by the person who I dealt with.
I looked at the wraps for a while thinking its not THAT hard to make them, asked my gf to show me how to sow and here I am, hooked on headbands.

I started off with a simple design, then added a little thought to it, then some more and now I'm making totally different headbands from any of the ones I've seen (there's only so much you can change with a headband) and have attached netting to it as well.


I know for a fact that some of MCB'ers make headbands themselves, so I would like to see that you have come up with. Basically just show off with my handywork and to copy your ideas without any remorse
Any picture is accepted no matterif its a closeup or a game photo as long as the headwrap is homemade.


I thought about making this into a headwrap build off with jugdes and all but dont know if the interest is there.

All I'm saying is make one for yourself and show off your work!

Also made one with mesh but my mesh holes were a little on the large side.

My surgeon/ paintball buddy just disassembled a surgical cap and remade one out of camo material with a sweat-catching interior. A pretty sweet prototype actually.

Padded to take the edge off from close range headshots (adds bouces as well), velouresque back part, feels really smooth and holds in place, extra long ends to be used in after game bondage parties




If I may say, not bad from a person who has never sowed before

After years of using different headwraps this has been my favorite so far.

I gotta say, for homemade, that's nice! Ever thought about making a couple to sell?
