Hairband is made of 100% cotton with a slender piece of elastic in the back,which is covered by a faux tie that you do yourself to ensure a comfy fit. Handcrafted by me. It's machine washable and dryable....providing youplace it in a delicates bag to prevent it from getting tangled up with other clothing! More designs in my booth,and be sure to take a look at my music books and handcrafted musical instrument accessories.
