Both objects:

HEADBAND: "A stylish and sometimes functional piece of headwear. Headbands are worn by many characters. Some symbolize a clan while others just seem to compliment the characters outfit."

BANDANA:  "A piece of cloth worn on the head, often worn by soliders to keep sweat out of their eyes. Solid Snake is famous for wearing a bandana wich can even provide him with 'infinite ammo'.Solid Snake is famous for wearing a bandana which can even provide him with 'infinite ammo.' This is revealed towards the conclusion of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Solid Snake is not the only character in the Metal Gear Solid series to wear a bandana, however. Big Boss, the soldier Solid Snake was cloned from, also wore a bandana, at least during Operation Snake Eater in the 1960's. Big Boss's mentor who taught him the basics of Close Quarters Combat, The Boss, also wore a bandana. It is not stated at any point during the games whether the other characters bandanas reward them with infinite ammo."

They're technically the same thing, aren't they?

Yes and no. A Bandana is a type of headband, but a headband is not a bandana. So Bandana could be merged into Headband.

bandanas can also be worn over the face and mouth while headband can't (like the bandanas in rock band 2).

A bandanna is a handkerchief that is folded.

I think the main image/description for the bandana page should be changed so it isn't as confusing.

I think they are obviously different and both pages should stay.

Then the information on the Bandana page is wrong (I've never seen Solid Snake wearing a bandana, could be wrong).
I've changed the pic to that of the old pirate-looking dude, and copy/pasted (and changed a few words) the text on to the Headband page. I have no clue what to write on the Bandana page though.

A bandana is a folded up handkerchief or a piece of tissue, that image of him in smash bros is a folded up piece of tissue.

Seems like they could be separate.  (I would like to see a gang-banger in Grand Theft Auto wearing a head band over his face while trying to jack someone.)

Clearly separate.

But, looking at this thread, I guess you don't need me to tell you that.
