a hair question
a hair question
This is a very unimportant topic but it is an issue for me. I use a wisp mask and I will assume many will do the same thing. My hair is a mess!!! I shower every morning and I now have a spot on my head where my hair stands on end from the strap of the mask changing the way it seems to lay. I was wondering if there was something you could put on your head that is very uninvasive and will allow the hair to sit flat.

Re: a hair question
Some women (womenzez) use a stocking cap of some sorts. I think I remember chunky frog mentioning it (but I could be wrong). There are the fabric types and there are the thin ones like panty hose material.

Re: a hair question
Any type of hair covering that is snug and does not shift much could help. Material would be whatever works best for your hair type. A scarf wrap is sufficient, but if you want to buy something, do-rags are easy to use. I used to get them in the ethnic hair supplies, the ones with the long ends to tie. The ones like a stocking cap felt too tight around the band on my big head. Good luck finding what works best for you.

Re: a hair question
I tried one of the motorcycle helmet liners I had laying around. Thicker than some of the "do rags". Still did not help much but better with it than without. I was running the Dreamwear nasal. Wonderful mask, more comfortable than the P10. But the headgear really smashes my hair and even 3 weeks later it still lays funny.

I wore a Buff under the headgear for years - https://www.amazon.com/Buff-Original-Mu ... B06XHNFZCH

Google chemo caps.
Some look rather pretty.
If you like, you can buy an extra to donate.
