Pantyhose, that's what has worked best for me. Pop it out of the Egg, put crouch on chin, roll and tie big bunny ears!

Low cost, little hassle and it's SEXY!!

Who could ask for more??

Take care,

SG

Oh SG,
Pleaseeee will you post a pic of that!?! I just gotta see the bunny ears. <giggle>
"Lil Bunny Foofoo hoppin thru the forest...."

I just got the Respironics Premium chinstrap and it is too large for my chin area! Why can't they come up with sizes instead of one size NOT everyone is the same!

P.S. the tan chin up strips are awful on the skin. I have tried the 3m and it seems to work better than the chinups!

After repeated failures with a range of chin straps, I tried tape over my mouth. The only kind of tape that worked irritated me around my mouth. Finally, I used a short velcro attached elastic bandage chin strap over my mouth. I place a couple of folded Kleenex between the elastic bandage. This is the only option that I have found that works for me.
