Splatoon
Abilities
The Tennis Headband comes with Comeback as the primary ability, which, being exclusive to the main slot of Headgear, prevents the wearer from also having Last-Ditch Effort, Opening Gambit, or Tenacity. As a 1-star item, the Tennis Headband comes with one additional slot for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail or 30,000 cash for each slot. Since it is made by the Tentatek gear brand, it has a higher chance of rolling Ink Recovery Up and a lower chance of rolling Quick Super Jump to fill its secondary ability slot.
Splatoon 2
Abilities
The Tennis Headband comes with Comeback as the primary ability when purchased from a shop or ordered from Murch, which, being exclusive to the main slot of Headgear, prevents the wearer from also having Last-Ditch Effort, Opening Gambit, or Tenacity. When purchased from SplatNet 2, it comes with any other primary ability normally available to Headgear. As a 1-star item, the Tennis Headband comes with one additional slot for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail for each slot. Since it is made by the Tentatek gear brand, it has a higher chance of rolling Ink Recovery Up and a lower chance of rolling Quick Super Jump to fill its secondary ability slot.
Trivia
- The Tennis Headband is the cheapest piece of gear with
Comeback in Splatoon and is tied with the 
B-ball Headband for cheapest purchasable headgear in the game. With the addition of the 
Swim Goggles and 
Toni Kensa Goggles in Splatoon 2, it is no longer the cheapest gear with Comeback or cheapest headgear overall. - The Tennis Headband was originally white instead of black. This can be seen in a few images released before Splatoon was finalized.
