GellwhuUnisex Cotton Beanies Soft Sleep Cap for Hairloss Cancer Chemo 3 - Pack

They are pretty good to sleep in
I lost my hair to chemo, so I bought these beanies not to be stylish but to keep my head warm at night when I sleepThese do the job. They fit the size of your head well. The material isn't the softest and after only having them for a month they don't hold up very well washing, aren't getting any softer and are getting those peeling balls already. I wear them at night to keep my head warm when I sleep, but if anyone else had those hot flashes from chemo like I do and you have to wash these babies one a week, they aren't gonna hold up long and instead of getting softer, the peeling from washing are making them more uncomfortable. For never before bald head is amazing how sensitive your scalp is!Personally I would like a more fitted style as they, I guess, are supposed to look trendy with condom like resevior tip on top, but for the purposes I am using them for I'd rather have a more fitted style that I don't need to fold up over my forehead and ears.If you are shopping for bald chemo head beanies here my suggestions from the 3 styles I have purchsed from Amazon :1. These ones you are reading the review for probably the best of the 3 stores I purchased for sleeping, wish they were softer and more fitting. But warmth and thickness wise they are great for sleeping. And price wise $15 for set of 3 is good.#2. I bought a heavier type, with a scrunched outer material design and fleece like inner material that also had that condom resevior tip design and is give them 3 stars too. I wear them in my office because my office is freezing like artic tundra and I needed a really warm beanie for that. They are bulky and not attractive nor is the fleece a good soft quality but they do the job with warmth. In my opinion these make you LOOK like a chemo patient though because they are bigger and bulkier and even when I roll them up of my ears and forehead they cube what little bit of eyebrows I have left, and I don't like that. Because they have different material on the inside as the outside, if you roll them up it looks weird, but I don't like that resevior tip thing hanging off the back of my head and if you don't roll them tightly to your head they don't stay on as well. But very good choice for cold offices or if you live in a cold area (in in San Diego so I don't need these outside of my office). I bought those on Amazon for $15 for a two pack.#3. The softest ones on my head are the ones with the built in scarves, that material is INSANELY soft, like your favorite pajamas! The style with the scarf is a bit too much for sleeping. Buy those to wear out, they have like 40 color and design options, for your head perfectly and you can wear the scarf part tired in a knot with scarf laying over your shoulder, tired in a bow with scarf down your back, or tied in a knit like a turban around the front of your head, I don't recommend the last style because it takes away from the beauty of the design print and color. They are the most expensive of the scarves I bought on Amazon but worth the $15a piece price!I am so looking for a simple, snug fitting solid color beanie in a super soft material, so if anyone has found those here in Amazon can ya please respond to this review!Thanks and how my review helped anyone else looking for chemo beanies!

So soft for a sore head!
I wore these everyday for a year while I received treatment. They are super soft and a medium weight so I didn't sweat but I stayed a comfortable temperature. The colors are great, my daughter ordered them all for me. They do droop in the back as pictured which I liked. I didn't want a fitted beanie as my "go to" head covers. If you are ordering these you may need some well wishes!! Good luck be strong, it does get better. These are also a great gift for someone who has been recently diagnosed, my daughter got them for me and I was super grateful.

So comfortable!
As with any chemo patient, loss of hair is one of the things you dread. I bought these and other much more expensive head covers before the hair went. I have others that are much cuter but these are the ones I wear daily. All the others are ok for short time wear but these are so soft and light that you forget you are wearing them.

Great for CPAP wearers, too!
CPAP user here. Someone in a group told me about these beanies when I asked about how to prevent my hair from breaking off from the straps. These are perfect! And they are long enough that I can pull them down over my cheeks and tuck under the straps. Which helps with the red marks on the cheeks in the mornings. An added benefit? I can pull the front down over my eyes and still be able to sleep when the hubby wants to watch TV in bed now and then.

perfect hat for chemo
very nice hats to cover my bald chemo head. fabric is not to thin and not to thick. nice and stretchy and stays on very well. I accidentally dried them on hot and happily they came out like new. I recommend them especially if you don't like anything on your head. most hats ,headbands ,ect .give me a headache. I forget I have these on. and the price is definitely right. cute colors too. God bless all that need these.

Love them!
I love these hats! I'm growing my hair back from chemo and it's starting to get warmer out, so I wanted something lighter that I didn't have to wrap around my head like a scarf. They can still get a little warm, but they're extremely soft and comfortable! I also have ears that stick out so I like having extra room in my caps, otherwise they get pushed against my head and they hurt. I've bought some other hats and turbans that are too tight and I can't wear them all day. These have lots of room and I could wear them 24/7. They're a great price, I love the colors, and they're extremely comfortable, so I would highly recommend them!

Super comfortable!!
I'm so happy to have found these slouchy cotton beanies. They are perfect for covering hair loss due to chemo. They are super soft on the scalp. I also like that they are perfect for Florida. It's warm enough to wear in our winter climate, but doesn't produce a lot of heat on the scalp like the knitted winter caps. This is a super soft cotton that comes in many different colors. The price is very reasonable for a packet of 3. The light purple one is my favorite. I've received compliments when wearing it. It appears to be a genuine Gellwhu product since I received it sealed in their branded bag. I'm not familiar with the brand name. All I know is that it's very comfortable. It also feels light on the head (doesn't weigh down). It can also be adjusted to be more fitted by rolling it up, or you can let it be extra slouchy (like it's supposed to be). The only negative thing I can say is that it took a while to receive them. It did come at the expected delivery time. I guess you can say that it was quick considering that it's shipped directly from China. Just don't count on getting it in a few days if you are a Prime member. I will be ordering more colors soon.

Great as sleep masks
I got these to use for sleeping, as I need a very dark environment. These caps are stretchy and roomy enough that I can pull it down on my nose and not feel crushed. The elastic on the traditional night masks bothers my ears. The cotton fabric is heavy enough to block light but not too warm.
