I don't have the rule book in front of me, but when it comes to headbands the only limitations I know of involve color. There's nothing that says part of it can't hang like this one does.
Therefore, outside of color, the only reason I can see not allowing a player to play with it on (we've been taught to NEVER request a player remove something, only to tell them they can't play with it on*) would be if there was a bead or other hard substance that could be a real safety issue.
By the way, I use the word "real" because there's a better chance that a player were to get poked in the eye by an opponent's finger rather than the two inches of fabric hanging from this headband.
*this is a legal issue, as apparently players have been told to remove something and some type of medical issue ensued. So by telling a player they simply can't play with it on an official is not telling them to remove something that may be vital to said player's health, thus avoiding legal trouble.
