In my various stages of baldness, I have been using a rayon headwrap under my P10.
As my fuzz has grown a little, I tried wearing the p10 headgear next to my skull
under a pipsqueak (baby yarn) knit cap.
It did not work. That new hair is super soft and slippery.
The buckle was better over cloth than under it--too lumpy right on my melon.

i just googled "cpap cap" and the above popped up.
Zonker's suggested cap works for me.

I wear it over the straps.
For me, it reduces the backstrap's tendency to slip forward.

i dimly remember this. it was like the first hit i got when i googled. never tried it myself, but glad to know it works!
people say i'm self absorbed.
but that's enough about them.

I really dislike the new headgear. Mine actually broke as I had to tighten it up sop many times each night that it just wore out in less than a month. Thank goodness I have one of my old straps still.

Did you try the workaround to reduce the slippage?

Tape looped as shown would add friction at 3 extra surfaces thus reduce slippage.
