headgear

[davidw]

Maybe this has been addressed already, but at the risk of repetition, I proceed. Who and/or how is one to decide that something on a girls hair used to control it in some fashion fits or does not fit into the classification of a "hairband", "rubber band" etc. In other words when does it cease to be a type of "rubber band" and become a headband that would then fall under the purview of the official rules governing headbands.

Is the, in question, prewrap just a large "rubber band" and not a headband? Especially since most of the ones I have seen since our Assoc. started doing both girls and boys game this year, are very narrow in width and just didn't seem to me to qualify as a headband, but more as a large rubber band type of hair restraint.
