I've had this cheap pair off Amazon for a couple years and have had no issues but recently I've been getting bad headaches after wearing them for more than 2 hours. Any recommendations for a comfy upgrade?

Anything that is not Razer. Especially not the Kraken Kitty
Comfiest headset I’ve had is the Logitech Aurora G735. It’s designed more with female heads in mind and is comfy even when wearing glasses! It’s not cheap though
Which system are you using them for?
I use HyperX Cloud II with a Turtle Beach adapter (not required but has volume and mute toggles) for Xbox. On PC, I use Logitech G733.
Both headsets have large ear cuffs, so they’re not putting pressure on my earlobes (I wear earrings 24/7 and eyeglasses, so any pressure on my ears is uncomfortable). The Logitech are also very lightweight, and I can wear them for long work/play sessions without a headache. Both headphones also have good microphones.
Which part is causing you discomfort? Is it the band, the ear pads, weight, etc.? That will help people to provide you with better, more specific recommendations!
For me are the SteelSeries Arctics 7+ are THE BEST.
No cheap but the quality is amazing, and they are very light. I had the same problem you have but with Logitech designs. I aggressively recommend this is you want something soft, light and with quality.
They are not in pink but maybe you can find something from them.

I’ve got an Arctic 7 and I love it. The dongle is USB and it’s so easy to plug it into my PS5, PC, even my phone. Also there’s a soft stretchy band between my head and the underside of the headphones.
Switch to earbuds ! There’s some decent hyperx ones. The ones I’ve had for a couple years are from Logitech.
Soundcore life q20s are great. Great sound quality, great battery life, and great longevity. Just got a new pair after the last one hot worn out after about 2-3 years.
Logitech/LogitechG/Astro are really the only ones I recommend these days that are decent at a fair price. Remember to check all their sub-brands because they don’t have all their headsets in one spot.
And I’d go for wired over wireless any day of the week.
Personally I love turtle beach gen 2 max headphones, and I’ve had dozens of headphones 😂 they’re not the best aesthetic wise but compatible for Xbox and pc and it’s super comfy. Purely based on sound definitely Sony or a well known brand, Ik it’s not a gaming set, but always a suggestion. Like another redditor said, definitely depends on what u REALLY need in ur headset (:
I use this one https://a.co/d/bFDuSiU super cute, wireless, comfortable, can change color/or turn the lights off completely, works with all consoles and pc, plus it has cats on the ears
Got a logitech g733 (the kda one) pretty good but does not match a music headset of course.
I clipped cute razer-like kitty ear on it.
Soundcore by Anker Life Q30… https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08Q8C3LHT?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Wireless Bluetooth, and it comes in pink.
Hot take: I don’t know if you’re really looking for a headset, but I’ve been using Apple wired earphones for about 2 years now and I’m never going back. They’re so comfortable, it feels like I’m not wearing anything and the spatial sound is great! Over ear headsets can hurt me quick because of piercings, so I am super happy now.
And yes, I know it’s unconventional and not everyone’s ears fit Apple earbuds, but I would definitely recommend them if you like their earbuds for music! It works perfect for gaming.
That looks pretty cute. I hope it isn’t pricy for you
Logitech G335 Wired Gaming Headset
Super lightweight, retractable mic, comfort band on the head. They feel 5 I don’t mind it. They’re great quality and I can wear them for hours w/ no issues.
