Sleep tape for facial hair and beard

Post by hoserdude » Wed Apr 29, 2026 6:09 am

Anyone with facial hair using sleep tape and any recommendations for the best kind to use (that doesn't rip your face off) with a nasal mask like ResMed airtouch N30i or Dreamwear? Thanks!

NOT tape but wonder wrap-

https://www.amazon.com/Mueller-Sport-Su ... r=8-1&th=1

i've been using this for about a year now and it works.

you might have to make minor adjustments. I use this in conjunction with fixodent. come to that, the fixodent alone would probably do the trick. I also use a folded Kleenex to catch any errant fixodent. and I use a scunci to hold the tissue in place, then the wonder wrap on top of that.

no eipping of hair, though it takes a bit to get that fixodent on my lips just so. but i've got it down to a science.

hope it works for you!

You are right I didn't insist however thanks for the pics very Impressive! Not sure where the fixodent fits in tho. Maybe a can of spray flex seal?

fixodent keeps my lips from parting.

my friend dog slobber has an old pick of me that he keeps amusing himself (and me) with. that was back when I used scuncis only.

So, I guess no one has any serious advice on a brand of mouth tape they could share for bearded individuals? If I've missed a sticky or a link that references this subject my apologies, but could you share it? Thanks
