Basically a week ago a football got kicked at my beats solo (hd) and they split, I have managed to glue them, but a tiny bit of the headband has popped out, can anyone help me? or say somewhere I can take them too :)

if you bought them within a year, then you could of maybe claimed under it's warranty - but i doubt you could do that now considering you used glue on them. also, i don't think it covers accidental damage. besides checking their site and reading the warranty T&C, i don't really know of anywhere that would fix them besides the makers themselves (they may have a chargeable repair service?)

Call them, they send you an email with everything you need to give them some information and once you provide them that they are 100% yours and authentic they will you give you a RFA and Postal address (Normally Germany) and you have to send them off and normally in around a month they will send you a new pair. I started the whole process in October 2011 and Recieved my pair January 2012. They take 2/3 weeks to reply to a damn email, awful company and awful headphones - wish I could of just got my money back.

Beats headphones are terrible.. I'd buy new headphones.
Personally I reccommend Sennheisers, amazing quality and don't break very often. Best on market in my opinion.

I have a pair of beats, but they aredefinitely style over substance. I would get a decent, sturdy pair rather then fork out god knows for a repair. :-P

I've never seen the obsession with big chunky headphones like these. People who wear them simply end up looking like morons because they're twice the size of their head and it's clearly an attempt at fitting in with the current ridiculous "fashion" as opposed to actually listening to music. We're not in the 1980s anymore!

Headphones perform better than earphones or in-ears.

i don't like in-ear headphones as i don't find them comfortable and some of them always fall out my ears. whereas on-ear headaches sound better (for me) and, well aren't gonna fall of my head :P

I'm sure they sound better as they block out external sounds, but they do look pretty ridiculous to say they're a fashion icon! Funnily enough, I'm sat in the school library right now and someone opposite me is wearing them. Oh if only he knew...

I have some of the in ear ones (Tour) so mine don't look silly. They look like normal ear phones :) :P

i have fakes and real ones. i wear the fakes in and around school, and because i live in the 'dark side' of london, where 1 in 3 people get nicked, i have my real ones at home. fakes perform just as well though, and they look the same for just half the price. my brother has the earpulgs, but i dint like them, as i find most earplugs hurt my ears. i also purchased beats so i can have top quality sound, and so that the mickey doesnt get taken out of me, when i wear, toshibas, or trusts around school... id much rather have something cool, looking good, and top performance then a cheap crappy pair of headphones that dont work in one ear, look even bulkier and everyone hates
