My Fitbit band left a nasty rash on my arm ;/

It was from the band, not the actual device...

Thinking of getting one of those scrunchie replacement bands 🤔

I read reviews on a few brands and this seemed a very common problem.

@CrazyMusicLover you mean the standard bands that come with the trackers?

Or just bands in general? Including the scrunchie band? 😶

@Fishy Get one of those metallic third party bands. Or hard plastic. Soft plastic / rubber is the worst

@Fishy The original bands with those products. I read that some people had to replace them with metal ones.

@CrazyMusicLover I did, with a cheaper band. The rubber would make my skin smell like mold 😬 couldn't stand it

@CrazyMusicLover @Elessar
Yeah, those are nice to wear during the day,
But I need something comfortable to wear when I sleep 🙈
