A strap worn across the forehead, such as a sweatband, a strip of cloth worn during martial arts or athletic events, or a piece of ninja armor (however apocryphal).
While a headband may be used to keep hair out of the eyes, it is usually worn under at least part of the hair. Headbands often end with a long tail trailing behind the head where they are tied.
Not to be confused with hairband, which is a band worn on top of the head instead of on the forehead, and is used to hold the hair down to maintain a hairstyle.

FAQ
Does NovelAI recognize headband?
Compare the samples on this page. Every tag on this site shares the same seed and base prompt, so any change you see comes from headband.
How do I write headband in a prompt?
Write "headband" near the front of the prompt and separate it from other tags with commas.
Should I use V5 or V4.5?
V4.5 shows the tag's effect more strongly. V5 gives steadier images with fewer artifacts.
