Clips on straps to keep it on?

Post by KTinTexas » Fri Feb 16, 2018 4:59 pm

After over a year of trying to find the "perfect" mask that will stay on, I've started just using hair clips to clip the straps in my hair (after I've pulled as much as my hair as possible over the straps). This seems to be helping a little. Does anyone else do this?

I recently started using a jersey knit sleep cap to keep my P10 from slipping (it's actually a Buff headcover I bought years ago for riding motorcycle). It works a treat, and I have considerably fewer tangles in the morning! (And consequently less damage to my hair)

a Buff headcover
I used those for the first four years or so. Changed my hairstyle and ditched the Buffs. Buffs are also great products for other uses.

Pretty sure it was a subliminal suggestion from reading one of your posts years ago, Granny! I only recently uncovered the Buff while decluttering, and put 2+2 together to try it for my unruly strap issue.
