Good size for an adult - stays in place without feeling too tight. Don't even notice it being there. Large enough in front to cover my whole forehead and eyebrows, all of which sweat. It's very soft and comfortable, and very effective at soaking up all that sweat and keeping it out of my eyes. Periodically, I hand wash it, which only takes about 5 minutes. Overall, I'm very pleased with it, and the price was about right.
