Straps on Full Fask Mask

Post by dsir2001 » Mon Mar 26, 2018 3:30 pm

I have been using Cpap for over 10 years. I wear a mirage Full Fask Mask which I like, however the straps on the back of the mask are starting to mess up my hairline and making my hair thin. Any recommendations?? Thanks...

I have not personally tried this, but some members have had success wearing something over their hair as a cushion between the hair and the straps. Something like a shower cap or skull cap, I think. Then again, seems like overkill.

I think I would add a fleece strap pad if it were me.
You can make your own or buy one ready made.
See what Padacheek offers to get ideas.

I would second the Padacheek stuff. Makes the straps pretty comfortable. While I shave my head bald every couple of days I could see where the extra padding the padacheek pads offer likely would help you.
