Reusable Nylon Bath & Shower Cap, Reversible Oversized Waterproof Shower Caps Large Designed for all Hair Lengths w Terry Lining & Elastic Band Stretch Hem Hair Hat - Socialite Boudoir

Years ago, I had a well-made terry-lined shower cap that I absolutely loved. Wore it for years - until it fell apart. For whatever reason, I started buying the unlined versions and they’re just not the same. And I suspect all terry lined ones aren’t the same either. This company, Betty Dain, has been in the business of making shower caps for many decades. So, I decided to give one a try. And once again, I’m in love with my shower cap. The terry cloth lining keeps moisture out. It’s nice and snug around my hairline so my hair doesn’t get wet. I have hair that’s just below my shoulders and for showering, pull it up into a low bun and the cap easily accommodates the bun and there’s plenty more room. And the print on the cap is subtle and pretty - and grownup (unlike many) - which I really appreciate (and my husband does too. Haha) Shower caps can look a little goofy, but this one actually looks nice. TIP: Some people have had their terry cloth shower caps develop a mildew odor after a while. I’ve been able to avoid that by doing this: as soon as I get out of the shower, I dry off the exterior - the plastic shell - using a towel, paying particular attention to where the plastic bunches up at the elastic. I find a microfiber towel works best. Then, with the exterior dried, I turned the cap inside out and hang it on a hook so that terry cloth is on the outside. It takes less than a minute, and I’ve not had mildew or any bad odors appear - and I live in humid Florida where my bathroom fan faces an uphill and losing battle every time I take a shower. Even with the fan and house AC, the room gets a little steamy. Which is why I had to devise that little trick.

I have owned this shower cap for about THREE YEARS, and it has been my trusty shower buddy for all this time, keeping my hair dry and my style stylish. It even survived several months in my gym bag when were were renovating the house, and I had to shower at the gym. ;-p Alas, nothing lasts forever, and the elastic finally gave out on one side. I bought my first cap at a beauty supply store about three years ago, and I am thrilled to find the exact same cap for sale on Amazon... for about $5 less. Yay! Pluses: 1. YES, it is waterproof. I have a large, rain-style shower-head in my shower (with good-pressure water), and it splashes directly all over the top of my head. The cap never leaked. Not once. 2. The terry lining stops my hair from getting sweaty during a shower. (Put plastic anything on your head, and your scalp is going to heat up.) This is probably my favorite feature/benefit -- who wants to step out of the shower with a clean body and a sweaty head? :-O 3. Long lasting. Three years is pretty darned good for a shower cap. Minuses: 1. The elastic band, although not tight, has a tendency to make train tracks across the middle of my forehead. As the marks can last for maybe half an hour, I solve this by pushing the elastic band up toward my hairline where, for whatever reason, it doesn't mark. How I use: I have medium length hair that is several inches past my shoulders. I clip my hair up, out of the way, and then put the shower cap over my head. If I didn't clip my hair up, it would just fall out. This is actually a plus -- imagine how tight the cap would have to be to hold all you hair up... ouch! - - - - - That's about it. LOVE this cap.

Very nice. Comfortable . great soft lining. I recommend it.

This is my favorite shower cap. I’ve tried others, but always come back to this brand. It’s terry cloth lined, so no condensation. The elastic goes all the way around and stays securely where you put it. And the bonnet is large enough for me to hold my hair up with a clip. I hope they sell these forever!

I've had my thyroid removed surgically due to Grave's Disease, and now take a thyroid medication. One of the side-effects of this medication is that my hair is very weak and tends to fall out/break easily, so I have to take extra good care of it. Because of this, I only wash my hair once or twice a week to reduce the stress hair experiences when washed. I've tried out a few different kinds of shower caps, but this was the only one I purchased from online. For the price, it really can't be beat. I have long hair that reaches past my chest, and it all fits in there nicely. It doesn't feel too tight on my head and is quite comfortable. The designs this brand offers are super cute, too! I've owned it for nearly two years now and am just now having to replace it. It's not because of the product wearing down overtime, but because it's actually taken on a moldy smell. I suspect this is due to me always leaving it in the shower. I just placed an order today for another one because of how long lasting/well it serviced me! I'm planning to store the shower cap outside of the shower, and I think it'll resolve the issue I'm experiencing with the one I have presently.

Great big waterproof shower cap! It is so hard to actually find a real jumbo cap, they all say they are huge, but they are not. Love this product, thick, waterproof, and leopard! Can't go wrong!

Fit is tight. (Elastic Band) I have not worn it yet in shower. Quality material inside and cover outside. I believe this will work to keep my hair from getting wet Follow up if it fails to do so

I've tried a number of different shower caps to keep my hair dry on the days when I don't shampoo my hair. I have thick, shoulder length hair with just enough curl that it gets frizzy when it's humid. I also have very carefully styled bangs that it's a pain to restyle. First I tried a Luxury Shower Cap, the turban-style with the bow on the front and it made a complete mess of my bangs. Then I tried a satin-lined cap that was a little too small, smelled like toxic waste until I washed it a bunch of times and worst of all, the water soaked into the edges of the satin. This meant that the satin lining got wet and made my hair wet. Exactly what I didn't want to happen! This Betty Dain Socialite Collection cap is perfect. It has enough room for my hair, doesn't squash or mess up my bangs and doesn't smell like toxic waste. The edge of the cap, where the terry lining is sewn to the nylon shell is bound with a separate waterproof fabric, so water doesn't get absorbed by the terrycloth lining. Yes, the elastic is *tight*. It has to be to keep water from wicking up under the edges of the cap. Yes, it will leave quite a mark on your forehead, but that will fade, and in my case, the mark is hidden under my bangs. And honestly, if you don't have bangs I'd go for one of the turban-style caps with the bow on the front because the elastic is not as tight. But for hair like mine this cap is just right!

Fea pero buenísima

Good quality , a little tight

This is the second shower cap I've had from Betty Dain. I originally bought the leopard print one (not really my style but not many choices at the time) quite a few years ago and it's served me very well since - it started to smell musty at one point so I put it in the wash and it came out fine. The elastic finally went on one side so I replaced it with this one. This cap was slightly more expensive than others in the range at the time but I much prefer the design over my previous leopard print one. It's quite girly - pink with French themed illustrations of the Eiffel Tower, flowers, beauty essentials and French text. The best part about these shower caps is the size - I only have mid-length fine hair but I tie it up in a bun and it's so roomy, the back of my head has never gotten wet while wearing these caps. I imagine it's suitable for most hair types as it's really generous in size compared to most shower caps I've tried. The elastic is quite tight (especially compared to my ageing old one) so it doesn't let water in, for a quick shower it's fine, but I used it while having a lengthy bath and ended up with lines on my forehead! The towelling inside is ideal as unlike plastic lined caps, there's no condensation / that sweaty feeling when wearing it. I'd 100% recommend Betty Dain shower caps and would replace mine again if the elastic goes again. They look and feel high quality so hopefully this one will also last me for years to come.

The product is good but I my hairs at egdes still gets wet. The terry cotton quality is superb.

I use shower cap almost daily and this is by far the most I’ve paid for a shower cap. Glad I’ve invested on this fancy shower cap. Feminine and cute!
