Good to know

Headband, buff or beanie?

Headbands manage sweat and keep ears warm without overheating; buffs are the versatile neck/face/head tube for changeable conditions; beanies are full warmth for cold days. The type column sorts them so you can match to the temperature.

Are any reflective for night running?

Some headwear adds reflective detailing for low-light visibility — the comparison flags reflectivity per item so you can spot the night-run-friendly options.
