" ... With the tight seal it has around my hair I never have a problem with it on. ... "
" ... Very easy to put on and great for keeping the hair out of my eyes. ... "
" ... I have chin length hair in the front and shorter in the back -- hair fits under it well. ... "
" ... Hair doesnt get wet. ... "
" ... If you have a lot of hair like I do, I would recommend getting a bigger cap. ... "
" ... I will say, with longer hair, it's always better to tie your hair up rather than stuffing it, as this can cause damage to the cap. ... "
" ... TLDR: I recommend these for adults with small heads or not much hair, or children with medium to long length hair. ... We will likely be sizing up to the "long hair" model which has more room in the top without being bigger around the head. ... "
" ... I have very little hair so it fits perfectly in but if you have long hair it wont hold it in. ... "
