These are cute and it's a great idea but I personally don't like the look. To someone else they will love the look. Especially kids. They won't care that a small box is attached to the side of the headband. The material is soft and the wire is not bulky. It's thin and fits perfect on the headband. It has 3 different settings for the lights. I think kids will love these. They will also be perfect for fun runs and Halloween parties. Maybe even New Year's Eve.
