Glow By DayeCordless Deep Conditioning Thermal Heat Cap, Microwavable Heat Therapy for Hair, Portable, Reversible Lilac

This is the 3rd cap I’ve purchased in the last two years. All similar in cost. I had been using a great gel cap that lasted for years but is no longer available. So my first choice was to buy a new gel-filled cap. They must be using a different substance now b/c the gel compartments started exploding in the microwave almost immediately. Yuk. The manufacturer’s optional heating method was to warm in boiling water. Too much time and trouble. 2nd cap was electric, made of thick plastic and tied under the chin. Besides having to remain hooked near an outlet, the cap was oddly shaped and didn’t fit snugly on my head. Tying tighter choked me and it still didn’t fit properly. Also, neither cap got hot enough nor stayed hot. Will not get another one that uses gel or electricity. In all honesty I had basically given up on finding anything and had resorted to occasionally using a heated, moist towel wrap or conditioning at the hairdresser alongside a cut. But recently, a friend had told me about using flaxseed or rice as a filler for heating caps. Had also seen it on Pinterest. I was still skeptical but decided to try the Glow by Day Conditioning Cap. I cannot express how surprised and satisfied I am with my purchase: 1. the flaxseed-linseed filler heats quickly and evenly, 2. seeds are natural so no concerns about gel chemicals, 3. the cap is amply-sized, 4. It’s well-made with a strong elastic edge and quality fabric, 5. feels very comfortable, like a ski cap or hat, 6. you can move about the house and almost forget you’re wearing it, 7. It also looks good. You could probably even go out with it on and not raise eyes! There really are no cons except no plastic cap is included. But you can purchase inexpensive packages of disposable caps or get a thicker, washable one. I have very long, bleached hair and am 50+ so I need frequent hair conditioning to keep it looking good. I also have a large head lol so if you’re small-headed with short, cropped hair, the cap may not fit as well. I’ve used it twice now with my regular post-shampoo conditioner and only for 15 minutes b/c I’ve been in a rush. My blond hair has come out truly shiny, smooth, no split ends and easy to style. Can’t imagine it being any better with a deeper conditioning product and capped for 30+ minutes. A 100% winner.

Works like expected and fits comfortably

I adore this little cap. I can use it anytime, it is the right temperature for just long enough to provide excellent results. I have dry, curly hair. It requires deep conditioning regularly. A heat cap is the best way to achieve that. With the electric heat cap, washing and conditioning my hair was such a chore. You’re stuck sitting and can’t do anything other than read or listen to headphones because your ears are covered. Now all I have to do is wait the 70 seconds it takes to warm this cap up. It’s a multitasker’s dream!As someone who’s used the electric heating cap for decades, I was reluctant to switch to this type of product. Having gone through two electric caps over the years, however, I didn’t want to invest any more money in a product that was becoming poorly made with each generation but was nevertheless becoming more expensive. This is a product that delivers far more than what you pay for!

When I first got this I was taken back but the size. I for sure thought there’s no way this is going to fit over all this hair! I gave it a hot anyway. After applying the conditioner and plastic cap I warmed it up in the microwave per instructions in 30 sec intervals until it reached my desired temp. (TIP: a small cup of water in the microwave while warming it helps keep it moist). It actually fit over my head- I have a big head and LOTS of coils hair- I loved how warm and comforting it was. My only issue was that the warmth lasted only about 15 min so I had to reheat. Overall this is a good alternative for when you’re short on time or don’t want to be attached to a cord or outlet. Will def keep for those busy wash days!

Love this thing. I’ve ordered some in the past and they’re too tight for my head and very heavy. This one was generally light weight and fits all head sizes. You need to buy plastic caps to wear under it but it does a good job deep conditioning your hair. I usually wash, apply growth oil and hair mayonnaise, put on my cap, and hang out for 30 mins while I use a face mask. Then hop in the shower and rinse everything off!My hair is getting really long and healthy and I definitely see a difference since I started applying heat to my hair masks. Way easier than the inflatable hair helmet my mom used hahahaha

I love this cap! I heat for 1 min, flip it inside out and heat an additional minute. When I first put it on, it's pretty hot, but not uncomfortable; however, you'll want to adjust how long you microwave based upon trial and error. It does not squeeze my head and I can walk around while my conditioner melts into my tresses. Would definitely recommend!

I am extremely satisfied with this heat cap. I have a hooded soft bonnet dryer, and although it worked great for deep conditioning my hair, it was very loud. I live in an apartment, so you can see where my problem lies. With this heat cap, there is no noise, the warming time is quick, and I can be mobile. With the hooded dryer, I had to sit in one spot and was not able to move, but with the heat cap, I can go anywhere I want. I would recommend this for anyone who is looking for an alternate route to deep condition their hair, without all the fuss. I would definitely buy this product again.
