In NCAA, any material that goes completely around the head is a "hair restraint" and must meet the legal requirements.
In FED, the restrictions only apply to "headbands" -- generally the "2-inch wide, sweat absorbing material". It specifically does not apply to pre-wrap.
Very popular this year is a 1/4-inch wide rubbery-material device with a dozen or so NIKE logos on it. I'd like to see that banned, or at least a clarification from the NFHS.
