I've read that many remove the headgear from the Headrest mask. I've never tried one of those masks or even seen it in person, but I have tried the Breeze. Even with the headgear, when I lie on my side, the Breeze would fall towards the pillow, making it crooked on my face.
Without the headgear, how do you keep the Headrest mask from going at an angle, or are all of you using it back-sleepers?

Here are some links put together by Rested Gal. Some have pix of the deconstructed mask and strap placement.

Re: Curiosity About Headrest Mask
Good link, Brenda.
And LoQ, here's another link to "lab rat" fixes for many masks' headgear (or lack of headgear... lol ). Might give you some ideas of how your Breeze can be "lab ratted" into staying put better:

btw, the Breeze was my favorite mask for a long time. Was the first mask I used after I started taping my mouth to get away from having to wear Full Face masks which cover nose and mouth together.
