I'd rather had big, scary nostrils than not enough good sleep.
No-brainer--vanity pales.

Thank you for the suggestion of taking off the comfort wraps form the Switf FX.

Before I read that idea, I tried the velcro on the back of the strap that goes around the head. It worked Great!!!! I did not have to wake up and fight with the mask and tug on it during the night. My chinstrap, which usually seems to slip also, seemed to stay in place better. Maybe the mask strap slipping around displaced the chinstrap as well. I have used the velcro for 2 nights now and it does seem to help. I would recommend it!

Thank you,
Jilliansue
