My head measures 24 inches around. Can anybody recommend a shower cap that might fit? Most are so tight that they creep up and leave an inch or more of hair exposed.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

@vermint If you don't intend to put your head directly under the water, what about wrapping your hair/head in a microfiber turbie twist towel, to keep it up and out of the way?

I have a bigger noggin, too, I just buy a bunch of processing caps from the local beauty supply. Very cheap. I like that they're light weight and don't weigh my hair down. Of course, being more fragile than a traditional shower cap, I avoid getting my head wet.

Do a search in Walmart, Target and Walgreens.  I know when I was looking I was in Walgreens and they had a variety of caps.

@vermint  Your best bet is to take a trip to your local beauty supply store as @BlueFinch previously suggested.

Buy a box of those small wastebasket (like for bedroom trash) plastic bags.  Cut one down to size - shake open and use that as a cap.....secured with couple of clips.  Won't compress or mess your hair-do.

 

Easy & cheap & you have basket liners

Re: Shower Cap for Big Head?!

@vermint @hi, I have a big head and I use rollers...I get mine at Sally's beauty supply. It has an adjustable ring on the top. Works like a charm! Good luck !

@NonametodaySo do I.    I use a "childs" shower cap.  They come in several sizes.  I asked the sales person which size I should get.  I wear a medium in a childs shower cap.  Fits perfectly.  Get them from the beauty supply store.
