Headband reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Headband.
Starts out a little crazy, then after about 30 minutes it settles in. Definitely great for relaxing and overall lifting your mood.

Fantastic! the boys and I ended up cleaning up his entire kitchen while we had a few of these. We absolutely ate everything.
Super euthoric and giggly. Everything was sweet az.
Played a fat sesh of Fifa17 with the boys. concentration levels peaking.
Great stuff. Would recommend.
Headband is a strange one. I'm giving it 3 stars because of the strong effect and some nice dense bud structure, so it's not a terrible strain. I had the 818 version from Cali Connection.
Overall, for me, it's not a strain I would keep on the shelf for the fact that it highly increases my sensitivity without really offering me any pain relief.
It starts off with a head buzz which then merges into a very strange indica feel. Usually when I smoke a decent indica, my pain goes away and I feel very relaxed.
The difference with 818 Headband is that the Indica makes me feel more like I'm not in my body, and gives me more of a numbness than being relaxing.
Due to the probably Sativa dominant phenotype I'm smoking, I also find that it doesn't necessarily make me tired as much as it makes me lazy (but mentally alert). This is GREAT for video games, but not so great for those who suffer with pain, anxiety or panic disorders.
I think I'm going to lean more towards the Indica dominant CBD strains from now on, as it is just way more enjoyable for me to smoke. If you dig that "outer body experience" feeling and playing video games when high, this is definitely worth a try. If you suffer with anxiety or are prone to overthinking, it's not a strain I would recommend.
A powerful strain. Anyone who has tried the two -very- renowned parents of this breed (or who has read my reviews of Sour D. and OG Kush) will have some idea of what Headband has to offer. It will do you one better.
A complex nose of sweet grape, soil, pine, and lemon with a pungent ammonia like smell escaping once ground. It's a thick, mossy scent that will assuredly fill a large radius. Be sure to be courteous of others!
Buds are a mellow jungle green. Fibrous, and crystalline, with intriguing peach/pale gold hairs. Definitely a looker.
Taste is earthy, but surprisingly fresh, with bittersweet lemondrop notes on the end. Overzealous tokers be warned; Headband has a lung filling capacity not easily matched. You will feel the bottom of your lungs.
High is warm, and vibrating, with a tense pressure that begins to build around the temples and radiates in a band (go figure) around the top of the skull. As someone who is sensitive to migraines I was a little worried about how this would gel, but no problems were experienced. The only mark against this strain, the crainial pressure can become vice like, and while not unpleasant, it definitely is not for everyone. Definitely not a strain for those new to the world of cannabis.
Overall, an exemplary strain that should at least be given a go. Great for meditation, outdoorsy adventures, and introducing your friends to Twin Peaks.

Too head high to function just out of it staring off in a distance
