Product Insights
The Shimmery Headband by Simons is a $19 CAD metal-core, textile-wrapped headband that improves durability and comfort over plastic alternatives, distributing pressure evenly across a 1-inch width. Its dense slate grey rhinestones create a constellation-like shimmer, but require spot cleaning to preserve. Non-adjustable, it fits securely and layers under hats, offering a mid-range price that undercuts branded rhinestone headbands while topping the $6 Thin Headband.
Verified claims
- Construction upgrade
- Metal core and textile wrap replace plastic, improving durability and comfort.
- Value
- At $19 CAD, it undercuts Monsoon and Artrylin equivalents while costing three times the $6 Thin Headband.
- Fit
- One-size, non-adjustable headband with a fixed 1-inch (2.5 cm) width that cannot be resized or bent; the width spreads pressure evenly and the snug fit stays put on the head.
- Comfort
- Padded horseshoe-style design with a smooth beige inner lining and a slim profile cushions the scalp and can layer under hats.
- Durability
- Metal core resists the permanent warping and cracking that plastic headbands suffer, helping it hold its original arc and spring tension.
- Care
- Spot-clean with a slightly damp cloth and avoid immersion to protect the stones and metal.
- Price comparison
- At $19 CAD, it undercuts Monsoon's £18 and Artrylin's $22.99 USD rhinestone headbands.
- Construction quality
- A metal-core, textile-wrapped design with a 1-inch width and dense fake-stone rhinestones offers durability, comfort, and a visible shimmer line.
- Brand trust
- Backed by Simons, a known Canadian private-label brand, adding brand assurance over generic alternatives.
- Shimmer
- Dense slate grey rhinestones create a constellation-like shimmer line; spot cleaning helps preserve the stones and metal.
- Stone retention
- One buyer reports crystals falling off in clumps before first wear; rhinestone attachment may be inconsistent.
- Styling product care
- Apply hairspray and perfume before putting the headband on, rather than after, so they don't settle on the stones and loosen the glued stone settings.
- Slate Grey finish
- In person the Slate Grey headband reads as a grey band with a clearly reflective finish—the stones and metallic accents catch light so it sparkles rather than looking flat or matte.
- Grip mechanism
- The metal base provides the structure and grip, while the textile wrap over it adds comfort against the hair.

Adding sparkle to casual outfits
According to an analysis of customer reviews, this headband's crystals catch light for a classy sparkle that dresses up relaxed outfits without looking gaudy — think brunch or casual dinners — and reviewers found it comfortable to wear for hours. The same analysis notes that crystals can detach in clumps before first wear, and suggests inspecting the headband and pressing down any loose stones before wearing it.[1]
Stays put during dancing and walking
A review-based analysis describes this shimmery headband as a good pick for light activity like dancing or walking, with a snug fit that holds it comfortably in place without slipping. The same analysis notes the fit can feel slightly tight to some wearers.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Shimmery Headband: Choose this if you want a slim, one-size headband (about 1 inch, or 2.5 centimeters, wide) whose densely packed rhinestones add classy sparkle to relaxed outfits for brunch or casual dinners—reviewers say the snug, slightly tight fit holds comfortably for hours without slipping. The padded horseshoe design has a soft suede-like lining and a Slate Grey color option. One caveat from reviews: poor adhesive may cause crystals to detach in clumps before first wear, so inspect it and press down loose stones (and carefully remove the attached tag) before relying on it for high-stakes events like weddings or New Year's Eve.[1,2] | Crystal Mini-Flower Headband: Choose this if you want a delicate, one-size headband in pale pink: it is a thin 8 mm wired band wrapped in a textured sheath, finished with smooth black caps at both tips. Small gold-tone flower charms set with clear faceted faux crystals are spaced along the outer arc, and the synthetic-material construction keeps it a lightweight decorative accessory.[3,4] | Faceted Crystal Headband: Choose this if you want a thin, decorative headband with a subtle sparkle: it has an 8 mm width, a central row of faceted black stones flanked by small gold-tone beads, and comes in Black or Grey in one size. It is made of metal with fake crystals and plastic beads, so it suits shoppers fine with faux embellishments rather than genuine stones.[5,6] |

Wonderful!
So sparkly and comfortable. It's not loose but a tiny little bit tight so it holds on to my head well.
Falls apart
Purchased to wear New Year’s Eve but the crystals are falling off in clumps before I even have the chance to wear it out of the house. Simons tag came on too tight and left a dent and damaged the crystals as well. Would be pretty but garbage quality and unwearable.
Beautiful
Great
Nice sparkles
This is a great headband to dress up an outfit. It is sparkly in a classy way.
