I think I may have unconsciously and unintentionally "hijacked" the thread by timetobeme--sorry

First issue would be if your sweating is "normal" and not hyperhidrosis. Assuming normal--two situations:
1) Gym/Exercise: I use my towel, as I said above at the gym. Outside, I will use a bandanna or other sweat band type gear--I find that hats, the baseball type absorb the sweat, are hard if not impossible to wash and clean so I avoid them bc the old dirt could irritate my scalp. I have a washable cotton hat, with a brim, that folds easily in my pocket & I've used that when I golf--rarely so it's not so much golfing as losing balls, and having a walk in the sun
. I also have an Under Armor skull cap that I use when on site visits, it keeps the webbing off the skin--who knows who else has worn the "Visitor" hard hat, and wicks away the moisture too.
2) Office/Social: I bring an extra handkerchief, the cheaper ones in a pack for about $1 a piece. If the sweat builds up, wipe down--but it really has to be hot, humid, no breeze. It was a problem w/ the combover--I had to catch the drops after they got beyond the hairlines--there was one in front, and the hole in back, otherwise the carefully sprayed thing would be ruined
. But, generally, because of the air circulation it wasn't a problem.
Unless you've got a medical situation, my guess is that w/o the piece, this isn't going to be a problem anymore--my bet is that it aggravates and magnifies a normal sweat pattern. Once you're free, the problem will probably resolve itself for the most part and a towel for the gym and washable hat or bandanna for exercise will handle anything else..
