And no matter how long you've been visiting, you picked an AMAZING time to pop in because we're celebrating my #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas {read my post announcing this series HERE if you don't know what I'm talking about}.
Today is Day 8 of my #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas! And the prize today is pretty FAN-FREAKIN'-TASTIC! Although, to be honest, all of the prizes are AMAZEBALLS! If I could enter my own giveaways I'm pretty sure I would enter each and every one of them in this series because they are just that awesome.
Up for grabs today are: 8 surprise Sparkly Soul headbands.
For today, DAY EIGHT, eight winners will be selected, each winning a surprise Sparkly Soul headband.
For almost as long as I've been running I've been rocking Sparkly Soul headbands (and for the past four years or so have been honored to be a part of their amazing ambassador program). I love the extra hit of sparkle they bring to my outfit, but not only that, they don't have a piece of black elastic in the back, they don't give me headaches and they don't slip or fall off during activity (and I wear them for everything from running to swimming and all activities in between).
Sparkly Soul was created for all the women who find their strength and soul while pushing themselves to their athletic limits. The company was actually started by a marathoner and triathlete (so they know exactly what an athlete like you and me need when it comes to activewear). Sparkly Soul was created as the comfortable solution for all of us athletic fashionistas so there will be no fussing with our hair while we are working out (or out on the town).
I wear Sparkly Soul headbands any time I have my hair pulled up (whether I'm working out or not). They help keep my fly-aways under control and the colors match any outfit I can conjure up. Sparkly Soul offers sparkly headbands, satin headbands, thin headbands, thick headbands, headbands that support charities, etc. (In case you were curious about my preference, I love the thick sparkly ones, but also have fun stacking different colored thin ones to mix it up too.)

Also, this giveaway will last seven days, with the winners being picked (and notified) on the eighth day. The winners will have 24 hours to reply to the congratulations email from me to claim their prize. That means, for this specific giveaway, it will end on December 14th at 11:59pm PST and the EIGHT winners will be chosen on December 15th.
And, finally, the winners must have a US mailing address. International shipping seems to cost an arm and a leg these days, and customs is a major headache, so to make it easier (and cheaper) on the brands who have offered up their products, the winners must live in United States of America (or at least have an address we can ship to within the US).
With that said, BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERS! And don't forget to stop back tomorrow to see what is up next in my #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas (I promise you do NOT want to miss out on any of these giveaways!)!
PS Just in case you aren't one of the lucky winners, you can use "CARLEE" for 30% off from December 8th through the 14th (because EVERYONE is a WINNER in my book)! So go get your shop on and save a few dollars in the process!

I love headbands for working out because they make sure my glasses don't move around (especially during weights or when I'm super sweaty)!
I usually use wide headbands (like bondi bands or hippie runner) because i workout super early and it’s dark.
When I run in the daylight I like visors (in the summer) or lightweight hats.
I love sparkle, so any sparkly headband is my go to! I love my Sparkly Soul Fourth of July themed headband!
Sparkly Soul are my faves to tame my curly mess!
I love to wear Sparkly Soul headbands when I workout.
I like a hat for my bald head, my girls would love these
I like hats for the summer, and headbands/headwraps for the winter. Buff is my favourite!
I run in sparkly soul when it's warm out and bondi band and buffs when it is cold and I need my ears covered as well.
Currently I'm just wearing anything to keep me warm enough in the freezing weather!! :)
Bobby pins or a headband for me!
Headbands unfortunately fall off my head - I must have a weird shaped head, which makes me sad because there are so many cute headbands! I do have a visor that I like to wear when it's sunny!
Headbands for indoor workouts, visor for outdoor summer running and beanies for winter running!
I normally wear a visor but sometimes that gets a little hot. In that situation, I just pull my hair up in a ponytail. :)
I mostly wear my hair up and hope for the best.
I usually just use bobby pins since I have short hair, but I'd love to try one of these cute headbands!
On trails I am always in trucker hats (how stereotypical right?) and on the road I typically have a thin headband to keep my crazy fly-aways in check.
Definitely these type of headbands for every. single. run. especially something with the felt or sticky material on the bottom so it doesn't slide!
Depends on the day..... When it is sunny a hat, cold a stocking cap, and when my hair is crazy I wear headbands.
Headbands always! I have a few from sweaty bands and a few from etsy.
I've been using the "buff" tubular hardware things, folding them in half and using them as head bands/ear warming bands. They work great to keep my frizzy hair flat and also keep my ears warm on colder runs but they aren't quite as warm as a hat so I don't overheat.
These are soo cute!! I would love them!
Usually I wear a hat or a visor
I wear hats or visors.
I am definitely a headwear type of runner girl! Usually it's either Sparkly Soul headbands, a Sparkle visor, or one of my Dodgers hats. :)
Visor for runs, headbands for everyday wear
I love wearing headbands. I haven't tried these ones though they look nice
I prefer headbands.
I wear bondi bands myself but my wife is pretty obsessed with sparkly soul.
I only wear sparkly soul headbands when I run! They are the only ones that stay put. On the rare occasion that I wear a hat in the winter I keep a headband in the stroller for when the hat comes off when I get too warm.
I wear headbands and love the SParkly Soul ones.
It really depends on the weather... if its below 60 aa ear warmer headband( I get earaches!), below 50 a full on beanie and over 60 I was wearing the Under Armor headbands but they were destroying my hair.... I ended up with side bands from those headbands!
Lately I've been wearing visors/hats for running. They keep the hair out of my face and sun out of my eyes (mostly) since i don't like wearing sunglasses. For other workouts I looove Sparkly Soul. They have so many great designs!
Trucker hats
I love headbands at the gym and hats if I’m out side!
I prefer headbands since I like to wear sunglasses.
Headbands! They work the best to control my crazy hair, especially if I'm on a long run.
Headbands, hats when it’s raining or a beanie when it’s cold!
I occasionally wear Sweaty Band headbands but recently I have been finding that the elastic is wearing out fairly quickly! I'm interested in trying new brands, like Sparkly Soul!
these headbands are the best, i already own about 50, but I will always take more
I love a good headband! But recently I've been putting all the running hats I've gotten through various races to use so I can forgo the sunglasses.
Ear Warmers when its cold & my Swag hat from Shamrock Half Marathon 2016 in VA Beach (Best race ever! Even with Rain!!) Headbands usually slip off my head mid run and are lost forever so i'd love to see how these work out!
My preferred is most definitely my Sparkle Athletic visors. Wear one on every run!
Headband for me
I usually just throw my hair in a ponytail but when i'm outside in the cold or rain a headband keeps my ears warm and those pesky little hairs from getting in my face.
This would be the perfect cute addition to my racing outfit! Plus, if I won blue and gold, I could rock it for Boston!
Headbands all the way, baby! No favorite brand, but they MUST have velvet underneath. Those kind never slide!
Sparkly soul headbands are the best! Not tight but don't stretch out when sweaty either! ♥️
I am so thankful to have discovered Sparkly Soul! I love headbands, but never wore them because they either gave me a headache or I felt ridiculous trying to properly place one for half an hour (my six year old niece slips them on with ease and looks flawless!). Once I found Sparkly Soul, my woes were gone and I love wearing them to run, take a HIIT class or just around town. They stay in place, so not stretch out, never give me a headache and SPARKLE!! I love them so much and am glad you do too!!
I wear hats in the colder months. I do love the way headbands look on everyone else but they are always sliding off my head.
If i wear anything, I wear headbands. I can't really stand hats and visors (and glasses) for that matter when I run.
I havn't found a headband that wont slip off my head, so I just opt for bobby pins. I live in OR so most months I'm wearing a beanie to keep my ears warm, and then a hat when its raining hard.
I put one of these on my dog as part of a halloween costume two years ago. That night we met a guy that is now my husband :)
These headbands are perfect way to tame postpartum hair regrowth!
I wear headbands in the winter, but not usually other times of the year.
favourite headwear is either a Ciele hat (made in Montreal!) or else a skinny headband!! or a buff if it's cold!
Anything that will keep my hair back and stay on my head! Hats, headbands, etc. once it starts falling off, it’s gotta go!
Love headbands and these are super cute!!!
Love a good headband to complete my ensemble for a good run!
Since I cut my hair off, my favorite for outdoor runs is headband + hat. For treadmill runs a headband or clip.
These are our very favorite headbands! My daughter and I squabble over who gets to wear which one, she wears one DAILY and I wear one for every run and/or workout which is not quite daily, but enough to cause a squabble. 😬😂
I actually don’t like to use any type of headwear, because nothing ever stays put and I look ridiculous in hats. But if I absolutely need something, I’ll wear a visor.
Headbands pretty much exclusively (also, Sparkly Soul exclusively - they're the only ones that don't slip for me!). I'm trying to learn to love visors because sunglasses always fog up on runs for me.
I like half buffs for longer runs and sparkly soul for shorter ones!
I usually braid my hair to keep it out of my face for races because I haven’t found a headband that doesn’t give me a headache after a while or slip off mid run
Braids & a hat or visor. I’m OBESSED with headsweats performance trucker hats. Especially the Bigfoot collection because I’m OBSESSED with all things Bigfoot. In the summer I might be known to slap on a headband....
This is my absolute favorite brand of headbands! I wear a skinny band every time I workout. They stay in place and, most importantly, keep my hair off my face!
I usually wear a headband or just bobby pin my hair back if it gets fly aways!
I wear Bondi bands normally but if it’s raining I’m a fan of visors
While at the gym, it's always Sparkly Soul. On a run, it's a Headsweats visor or cap.
I’m always on the lookout for good headbands!
I loved headbands! No particular brand - I love all headbands equally 😆
I can't workout without a headband, everytime I try my hair annoys the piss out of me! I started using Hippie Headbands a couple years ago and never branched from there, but I'd love to try some thinner ones.
I usually just have my hair falling in my face. Would love this! They look so fun!
I LOVE headbands. So far I love boulder bands, and junk bands the best. I haven’t found a thinner band that will stay on my head yet. I’d love to try these!!
I love hats on hot and sunny days. But I love my SparklySoul bands for cool daily runs.

I usually like wearing headbands because I feel better about sweating on those than with hats/visors! :P
I switch between head bands and visors. I like old navy's headbands
I love headbands and visors when working out. Headbands in the dark, and visors in the day. I love my Sparkly Soul headbands and my BOCO visors the most.
If I am running in the snow or really cold weather, I life a fuzzy headband for my ears. Otherwise, I don't wear anything while running. I think the headband could be great for yoga or barre.
I will use either a visor or a headband!
Headbands are my go to, but I haven’t found one I completely love yet! This would be an amazing win!
Sometimes a headband, sometimes a hat.
Outside I wear a hat or visor. Inside I wear headbands; i like Prana and old navy ones. I haven't tried sparkly soul yet ;)

Headbands!
I wear hats outside and headbands inside. I use all different brands.
I’m a headband girl! Sparkly Soul is one of my favorites to wear. They are just the right amount of tight so they don’t slip & slide around!
I love Sparkly Soul! They are the only ones that don't slip off my head!
I generally just do a ponytail and sometimes cover with a baseball cap.
I will wear wider headbands, like the Bondi Band. My scalp burns easily and hats sometimes hold in too much heat during the summer.
I'm all about the Sparkly Soul headbands... but rock the occasional visor or trucker when it rains.
I tend to throw my hair up in a high ponytail and put on a headband. Thanks.

I have yet to find a headband that stays in place when I run and is cute! These sound awesome!
I used to wear just those Goody black stretchy headbands, but stopped wearing them after a while. I need to wear them again since I got my hair cut and not all my hair fits into a pony! - Kim K.
I prefer a hat to keep the sun off of my face :)
9 out of 10 times, I wear a headband during a run because it helps significantly with sweat!! Usually under armour! The other times, and during my hikes I like to wear hats!
I almost always wear headbands when I run to keep the flyaways at bay! Sparkly Soul are my fav by far!
I love sparkly soul and bondi band.
Oh I love the sparkles! I would love to try these!
I like to change it up! I have very few headbands but they are critical since cutting my hair short!
I usually change up between a buff, headbands, and a hat. Since I do laundry often I usually cycle through only about 2 of each. I would love the sparkle headbands. I think they are both functional and cute!
I am a fan of head bands and a hat in the winter when it's cold -- central Pennsylvania resident here!
I like headbands.
Headbands are my life whether I'm at home, work, or on a run! They seriously go with anything!
I don't think I could pull these off... But my wife sure could!
My favorite headbands, no movement at all!
I change up my headwear depending on my mood that day. LOL. Sometimes a headband, sometimes a visor, sometimes a hat. You never know what you're gonna get!
I love a good hat, but I'm excited to try adding a little sparkle to my runs! I know my daughter and running buddies will love them too!
Could desperately use these, I need a little sparkle and something to tame my hair
when i run, i usually wear a hat. Doing workouts in a gym, i usually wear a headband. Most of my hats are Nike. i like those best. Headbands I don't have a favorite - i'm intrigued by the sparkly soul bands though!
I'm always wearing headbands because I have a lot of baby hairs and flyaways!
I currently have short hair so headbands are a must. They make my hair look cute
Visors
Sparkly Soul wide headband! I wear them every day for running and for hot yoga!
I only wear headbands or hats when it is cold out 😊
I change it up... headbands when it's sunny and hat when it is rainy.
I am a thin headband type of person from yoga to running and playing at the parks with my kids.
Headbands! Heck, I wear them 24/7 unless I'm sleeping or showering!
I always wear a headband (unless it's winter). Sparkly Souls every day no matter if I'm running or working!
Cute sparkly headbands are a must when I’m inside on the treadmill. Gotta keep my hair out of my face (and looking cute when my cat yells at me to run faster never hurts either)
I like headbands but don't have a favorite. As long as it keeps the hair off my face, I'm okay.
