I like the design. It's a solid alternative to using a bunch of elastic bands. However, the diameter of the tube, could be smaller. The reason mine flew off, was that I used too much material to fully cover the length of my hair. In doing so, I had less "rolled tension" at the top, in the "rolled bun" where the anchor point is to hold the Wrapter in place. I think it worked on Jenn because she had a scunchie, which is larger, and I had an elastic band which is smaller. Jenn's hair is about the same length as mine. Tam, has thick, long, blonde hair (Beeotch), so the tube diameter along with the "rolled bun" diameter worked for her.
So I think if the Wrapter tube diameter was a little smaller, less material would be needed to form the rolled bun at the top to hold tension, and the smaller diameter of the tube would increase the tension along the length of the hair to hold things in place.
As it is now, all the holding of the Wrapter relies on the rolled bun at the top, and if that doesn't have enough friction, you'll loose the device.
So...
Make the tube a smaller diameter. Less material will be needed to form an effective "holding bun" at the top, along with increasing the friction along the length of the hair to hold it in place. Aesthically, having a smaller "Holding Bun" would look better and offer less obstruction to the back of the helmet or under it.
