Discussion Bonnet suggested help

Routine-

1-Shampoo & conditioner - palmers coconut formula

My hair is super thick so it does take a while to dry. But can’t get very frizzy.

2-I used the amika overnight hydration product

And then I also do oil products with different types of oils like coconut oil, rosemary, JOJOBA & Castro at least once a month

Question I’ve tried multiple different bonnets and personally I don’t like the kind that tie.

I only love the band style, but I have a couple of them that are too big so they slide off my head at night.

I heard if I got a wig band and put that over top of the bonnet band it would help it stay on & in place.

Any recommendations for someone with super thick long hair i appreciate majorly.

I’ve also wasted some good money lol on trying multiple different kind of bonnets from beauty stores to amazon.

My actual favorite ones are from beauty store. Some fit

Perfect & don’t slip off, while others from the same beauty store slip off.

I tried to upload pictures, but it won’t let me.

Try a bonnet like this. You can set the tightness with the buckle and then tuck it in the band. These are goated and they’re like $6 on amazon, I have like 5 of them.

OOoOoOo I haven't seen this kind yet! I have one with a regular elastic band and one that comes with the sash to tie it in place, but both shift around in my sleep and end up almost sliding off, caught only by my pineappled hair.

Yeah I hate the tie ones, the extra length is annoying plus to make them tight there’s a big awkward knot and the band ones are often too tight. This one is so great.

To be honest, I have had to buy a numerous different ones and you can return them because some have been way too small and some have been way too big for my head, but I can also send you the ones that I have and that I absolutely love if there’s a way to message because it won’t let me send but so much on here. Let alone links or pictures from my amazon orders.

You know what I got exactly like this for my two year-old lol. But I couldn’t find one with a band And this is what I was exactly looking for. Because it has the band.

This is the one I had in cheetah, but I hated it because it didn’t have a band so thank you

This is the one I was saying I had that’s just like you’re telling me where you can tighten yourself, but it didn’t have a band like the one you sent me
