The Forehead Protector is a compact, metal headband with a rectangular plate at the front, typically engraved with the symbol of a ninja village. The band is made of durable, dark-colored metal with a slightly weathered texture, showing signs of use. The plate is polished to a glossy finish, reflecting light subtly, and the edges are slightly rounded for comfort. The headband is secured with an adjustable cloth strap, usually in a matching dark hue, allowing it to fit snugly on the forehead.
