I used the HeadOn Extra Strength for bad headaches and found it very effective in providing relief for several hours at a time. It felt like a cool cloth on my forehead. It was easy to use, totally odorless which is very important to me. I think this product is excellent.

Years ago, I had a girlfriend who authoritatively told me that the way to stop a migraine headache in its tracks was to stand on my head for a minute or 2 as soon as my "aura" lights started flickering. Problem was, I couldn't stand on my head under the best of circumstances, much less when I was half-blind and nauseous with incipient migraine. Still, standing on my head probably would have been a lot more efficacious than rubbing "HeadOn" on my dome like some Arkansas rube sampling the wares of a traveling snake-oil salesman, and I would have gotten some exercise as well. With "HeadOn", all I would have had was a shiny forehead and a lighter wallet.

this commercial gets on my frikken wick!

I get migraines and when these commercials come on I have to mute the volume or my pain intensifies.

This is quite possibly the worst commercial ever created. And the makers KNOW that the commercial sucks - they mention it themselves in some of the commercials they make, where another actress interrupts the commercial and says how their commercial sucks, but she "loves" the product. Their commercial, while memorable, created the opposite of the desired effect. The commercial seems like it would contribute to the headache in the first place. Maybe it's something about applying what looks like a preschooler's gluestick to my head that somehow doesn't seem like a great way to get rid of a headache.
