Headgear

Post by Ingrid_K » Thu Sep 03, 2020 9:23 am

Currently, I have an AirTouch F20 with full face mask. I'm having problems getting the top part of the headgear to stay in place. My clinician claims it's because the top strap is too far forward and that I should switch to the AirTouch F20 for her version of the headgear. From what I can tell, the headgear geometry is exactly the same though, the difference being, that the for her version has some cushioning on the sides and a different color scheme.

Anyone know if the two are essentially the same with regard to the strap geometry? Thanks.

Shiny hair is also slippery--male doctors do not "get" it--we'd be mean to rub it in . . .
Attach a little piece of hook side of hook and loop tape to the inside center of the unruly band.
It will cling to your hair, and will be more likely to behave.
Self-adhesive works fine, but sew-on is better.
