Very versatile strain. It really has two different highs to it; one is when it's consumed in low doses, and one is when it is in high doses. The most recent batch of this at Montana Buds is around ~22% THC and ~0.1% CBD, and it has an extremely prominent lemon scent, with a hint of diesel. The flavor was surprisingly more lemony, and the thick smoke gives it a creamy aftertaste. Really outstanding flavor. Now when this strain is taken in lower doses it's ideal for a morning/early afternoon smoke if you need to treat anxiety, depression, or appetite loss. Lower doses will make the high pleasant, but not overpowering. You'll probably feel a slightly tingly cerebral sensation, along with a nice calming body effect. Keep in mind, this strain is very potent, so low doses means only 1-3 small hits (4-5 in a vape). With that you'll still be able to be productive and get things done. Higher doses do indeed give you the headband sensation, just an extremely pleasant pressure all around the crown of your head. The indica side of this strain comes out in the higher doses as well, with a much more intense, melty body effect. Perfect for getting under a warm blanket and playing video games or watching tv, you'll melt into your hed/couch. Great for insomnia as well as anxiety/depression when used at night time. Overall: A+ strain, very diverse in the treatments and effects it can be used for, with a phenomenal smell and flavor to boot.
Unbelievable strain. Easily my favorite that I have ever smoked. Headband(sometimes known as 707headband) has you feeling uplifted and relaxed just after exhale, and after about 5 minutes feeling the head high coming on and relaxed. After 20 or so minutes later after slowly being lifted up, I usually get slammed almost out of nowhere with an extremely heavy head high and very noticeable calming and soothing body high that both last and keep building for another 40-60 min and then peak for about an hour before very slowly(and not noticeably for about another hour) coming down, all the while the high frequently changing. I always sleep great afterwards. I usually feel very social when I smoke this, I love to joke around or hang out with friends and do anything from sitting and talking to play fighting to crawling around the floor on an adventure. I highly recommend this strain for social events where you can be goofy and either energetic or laid back. Lovely smoke.
Very happy high good for depression or nausea.

😍😍😍😍 I have recurrent tension headaches and this so far of the all the strains I've tried is THE cannabis medicine for it. Very mind expanding, fast acting, creative high that will put you in a good mood instantly. One of my favorite highs so far. Highly recommend! 😍😍😍😍
Headband is good times all around my crown. One of my most beloved best. No bad stuff for me (anxiety, paranoia, ect). Probably one of the very best for depression (besides PR). This one has been a frequent go to anytime I need to see the world in a slightly different light.
I've gotten some headband which I mistakened as lemon haze because of thr citriusy scent (& I've never had lemon haze before, but I was told it was lemon haze) & I'm starting to believe it was some headband because I've read reviews on lemon haze & the comparison to the weed I smoked which was actually headband makes sense. This gave me the chillest high & I genuinely mean that. You feel relaxed as if it were a dream. I smoked this on a hill with a few friends & it really made my day. I packed like 5 bowls & I didn't get those overwhelming, extreme highs. If you prefer something more relaxed & keeps your mind & body at ease, smoke some headband!
We got a quarter of headband in Colorado Springs. It was covered in trichromes.. Literally. It also smelled very pungent and tasted rather interesting, although I won't say it's my favorite taste. While this was a great strain for your neighborhood cannassuer, it's also great for recreational and/or medicinal users. Very intense euphoric and energetic effects. While it had me up and moving, still allowed me to go right to sleep. Packed heave munchies with it so make sure you have some tasty snacks! One of my all time favorites.
I picked this up today at my local dispensary as their $25 1/8 day promotion not really knowing anything about this strain other than it was considered to be a decent Sativa. THC was 20.8%. The bud tender told me it was named headband for the band like sensation many experience.
When I got home I packed a bowl and took 5-6 hits. Wonderfully creamy smoke. I found the flavor to be much more restrained than the bud's aroma.
The high was nice, soft, and euphoric with no paranoid thinking. It really helped me to shed the stress of the day and let go of anxiety.
I did find the intensity and duration of the high to be a little on the weak side for the amount consumed.
