FAQs
Is this cap suitable for thick or long hair?
Yes, the high-stretch material is very forgiving and can accommodate thick or long hair better than traditional tight silicone caps.
Will this cap keep my hair completely dry?
No swim cap is 100% waterproof. While it will keep your hair mostly dry, some water may seep in around the edges during intensive swimming.
Can I use this cap in salt water?
Yes, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after use to prevent salt crystal buildup and material degradation.
How does the white color affect visibility?
The white cap offers higher visibility in open water compared to darker colors, which can be beneficial for safety.
Is this cap machine washable?
No, you should only hand wash it with fresh water and air dry it away from direct heat or sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Cap keeps sliding off during use
Ensure your hair is pulled back tightly or use a swim-friendly headband underneath to provide more friction.
Difficulty getting the cap on
Wet your hair slightly before putting the cap on, or ensure your hands are dry to get a better grip on the material while stretching.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To put on the cap, hold it with both hands inside the dome, placing your thumbs on the inner surface. Starting at the forehead, stretch the cap over your head toward the nape of the neck. Ensure your hair is tucked neatly inside to maintain a consistent seal. For care, rinse the cap with fresh cool water after every use to remove chlorine or salt. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for extended periods, as UV exposure can degrade the material over time. Once dry, store the cap in a cool, dry place and lightly dust it with talcum powder if the material begins to feel sticky.
