BuffCoolNet UV Neck Gaiter, UPF 50 Sun Protection, Breathable, Versatile, Quick Dry Face Mask, Multi-Colored, Adult Size

I absolutely LOVE this UV protection Buff! I am embracing my silver hair that is slowly growing in, so this was recommended to me by a silver hair influencer. Because UV rays can turn silver hair yellow, it's super important to cover your hair with UV protection when out in the sun. This buff offers a UPF rating of 50, so I feel protected when lying in the sun. I also love the lavender color! The buff is very versatile and can be worn in multiple ways. It's nice a stretchy and the size is perfectly comfortable for an adult. I find the weight perfect for summer. Very well made and pretty!

I have 4 Buff gaiters and love using them as neck gaiters or headbands. As headbands, they help protect my forehead and ears from sunburn. If I take it off before I'm ready to store it, I'll twist it onto my wrist and use it to wipe sweat.Apparently the previous ones I have are all 100% cotton-feeling polyester, while this one is 95% polyester/5% elastane (spandex AKA lycra). I LOVE the feel and stretchiness, and it grips better that the 100% polyester ones.The tri-color arrangement is versatile - you can arrange your headband so any one of the 3 colors is dominant. Colors are complimentary, somewhat muted, and fairly true to colors showing on computer monitor/mobile screen. I didn't want a brighter red or yellow, so was pleased with the color presentation.I wore this Buff as a headband/ear warmer for at least 10-12 hours two days in a row and was very comfortable.

I have a 17-inch neck, and it fit fine on me. Not loose; not tight.I used it while hiking in the high Sierra Nevada mountains in California, and UV rays are more intense at higher elevations, as well as winds that dry out the skin. I wore it as a balaclava to cover the sides of my face, my neck and my lower face while hiking. Then, dropped it down to just cover my neck as I was in camp. It's comfortable to wear, and I have nothing negative to say about it. The one I have is a forest camouflage pattern on one side, and white on the other side. At high altitudes above the treeline I wore it with the white side facing outward to help reflect more of the sun's rays. While hiking in the forests I had the camouflage pattern facing outward to help break up my human look so that I could get closer to wildlife to photograph the animals I found.

Work well. Wear on my head at work to keep sweat from running down my face. The one and only thing I guess I could complain about is due to how much I sweat being outside in 90 to100 degree heat all the time is it seem to be stretching it out a little due to me have to ring it out 2 or 3 time a day. It still fits nicely on my head and seems to srink down a little when I wash it. Guess that just normal wear and tear but worth what I pay for it.

I wish I had a Buff with an image of the blazing sun on it. I wear them every day when I bike in Arizona. People cough, mockingly, to make a statement. They think it's about germs, but I just want to protect my face. I have had to tell some of them: "Dude, You MUST realize that we live in the sunniest place on earth! It." A Buff can also help with dust, or morning chill, too. What I did not anticipate when I bought my first Buff was that I would be slammed into by a bird in flight. It collided so hard with my face just above the eye, near my temple, it bent my sunglasses when they deflected it. If I had not had my Buff on, (I wear it high up over my ears), along with the helmet and sunglasses, I could have lost an eye, been scarred or certainly had a concussion. I am sold on wearing a Buff. It is a necessary piece of my equipment.

Comfortable, cooling, a little loose (on 21.5 inch head circumference), but stays in place. Actual colors match product image well.
