I bought two of these cooling bandana's for our trip to Spain last summer. We didn't find them to be useful at all. I followed all the directions but found that the crystals got warm during the day and it was heavy around my neck because of the dampness. I was cooler when I took it off.

I'm not doubting whether it works for you, if you say it does, then I'm sure it does. I'm just pointing out that they don't work for everyone. They're so inexpensive that it might be worth it for others to try it and see if it helps them stay cool. I wish it *did* work for me!
