Audience teasin’ Hair band (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ribbon

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'band' is the definition.
(I know that band can be written as ribbon)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ribbon that I've seen before include "Decorative strip of material" , "Material tied in a bow, perhaps?" , "Thin strip of cloth" , "decorations" , "Narrow strip of material for decoration" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
