The Sure Grip is a different kind of band. Instead of velvet or silicone, it is a gel-filled headband worn under a wig or hat, and Godiva's Secret Wigs sells it mainly as a comfort product that also holds the wig securely. The listing says it dissipates body heat to make wigs cooler, relieves headaches caused by wig pressure, and cushions pressure points to prevent sores. It is one size for 18 to 24 inch heads. That makes it worth a look for people who already have a wig that grips but feels tight or hot after a few hours. At $35 it costs about twice as much as a velvet band, the page offers few material details, and it had only 7 reviews when we checked. If your wig slides rather than presses, a velvet or silicone band will do more for less money.
