I ordered mine form aliexpress, but the seller is gone

I really enjoy it tho, I have it for about 8 months already and they still fit well

I have this turban from Damiano Collection on Etsy (US). It has an elastic with adjustable length and has stayed on me perfectly. I don't have anything to compare it to, but I am an enthusiastic sleeper (often wake up sideways in the bed, somehow....) with fine and slippery hair and this one has only come off once in the 2.5 months I have been using it. And the slippery side is on the inside, too! The only thing I can't speak to is room for lots of hair, as my hair is only CBL and is straight/fine/thin. It would work for at least quadruple my amount of hair with my head size, but that is obviously much less than many LHCers!

oh I like the adjustable band part, does that help with the staying on? anything ever tight enough to stay on my head leaves marks on my forehead, I hate it

This sleep cap is the only one I've been able to keep on all night. It has a wide elastic band too, so I don't wake up with elastic marks on my forehead.

It does stay on me but I have a teeny little mark on my forehead in the morning. I have bangs and it goes away within 5 minutes so it doesn't bother me, but I don't want to promise no marks at all. It would seem that adjustability must help both staying on and marks because you can find the happy middle ground for you, but I'm no expert! This is my first cap, so perhaps everything would stay on me despite the enthusiastic sleeping.

I am using this silk sleep cap and I love it. It stays on my head and there is no elastic on the front so it doesn't mess up my bangs. It also isn't overly tight. I have another that is too tight, leaves marks, and hurts my ears. I got my silk cap in mauve and it's a lovely color. I sleep with 2 braids and tuck the braids in underneath. Sometimes, if I wash my hair at night, it is still damp when I go to bed. In that case I do not braid but just tuck my hair carefully inside the cap. My hair is smooth and not tangled when I remove the cap in the morning. It is also one of the most affordable 100% silk caps I have found.

I've been using satin, but I'm fond of Prince Hair Company on Etsy. The back has a bit of elastic at the nape and they have a tie that is either stretchy or also satin. I have one of each and they're both great. My head is a bit smaller than the opening, but I just fold it in when I tie everything and that works just fine.

Thank you, just looked at this and really like the look of it, maybe have to give it a try! I actually bought one from lilysilk and was disappointed with it, sadly didn't stay on.

Thanks, these look beautiful I'll take a look at them as well.
