SOUL CAP - Large Swimming Cap for Long Hair - Designed for Long Hair, Dreadlocks, Weaves, Hair Extensions, Braids, Curls & Afros - Women & Men - Silicone

10/10. Bought one for myself to test, loved it, then got my mom one a couple days later. I bought this because I love swimming but hate the time it takes to dry my hair afterward. Didn’t trust the other brands and was so happy to find one that catered to Black/POC women and our hair. It’s stylish for a swim cap.I used this cap every day for about 3 weeks (chlorinated pool, ocean, and saltwater pool), each time fully submerging my head and swimming regularly. I have butt-length medium box braids which all fit comfortably inside the cap with room to spare. I wrapped the braids around my head then put the cap on - I also wore with my hair in a bun a couple times under the cap but it wasn’t my favorite. I appreciated the tight band (it wasn’t painful) because it kept the cap secure. I recommend measuring the circumference of your head and going by that, you definitely want the band to be 1-2 inches smaller. It’s very durable and I didn’t experience any tearing or other malfunction. It does get warm in the cap, sometimes sweat from inside the cap feels like water seeping in but it isn’t.Tips: pull cap down completely over your ears and about 1-2 inches below hairline for a watertight seal. Make sure your skin is clean and dry without make-up, sweat, hair product runoff, etc. otherwise the band will slip. I found that sweat from inside the cap did NOT cause slippage IF you put the cap on before that startsI also use this in the shower and for deep conditioning. It’s easy to wash and dries quickly.9.5.25 update: I’ve been using this cap about once a month since I bought it. It’s been to hot springs, saltwater pools, chlorinated pools, the ocean, the bay, um basically all types of water. I’ve had plenty of hairstyles too. Still doing laps, diving, floating, playing around. Still no issues! My mom’s has not been used as much - maybe once every 6 months or so - and hers is fine too. We still recommend!For the deep conditioning I forgot to say you can use a regular plastic bag first then put the cap on over it. I usually do it that way bc it gets slippery but not every time. I’ve used my hooded dryer a few times with no issues… it just gets too hot for me. The cap alone is enough.

I got me and my husband these swim caps and it makes swimming SO much easier to do for fitness because I can actually go for a 30 min swim and not then spend 2 hours showering and restyling and drying my hair. Really pleased with it. I've been able to swim 3 times this week without the rigamarole of my curly hair styling routine. And since my husband now has longer hair than me and still wont use a hair dryer it makes it so much easier to get him out to the pool too so we both get our exercise.I got large, he got extra large, I'm on the fence if I should've gone with medium, but my hair is on the shorter side for me right now so large will probably be perfect for as my hair grows out. I will mention it doesn't keep us bone dry, we both get dampness at the nape, but we wear our hair up in a high bun on top of our heads so the bulk of our hair stays nice and dry ( I notice the water mainly gets in when I swim butterfly though which is my most vigorous stoke, if I only swim breast or freestyle I can keep my hair entirely dry)I'm experimenting with google strap placement to get a perfect seal for my more vigorous swim strokes, today I did one loop of the googles down around the base of the cap and one up high above my bun and that did REALLY well just mildly damp at the nape after 5 laps butterfly. I bet this works perfect for you if you mainly wanna hang out in the pool with like splashing kids and paddle around a bit. my husband and I are ex swim team lap swimmers so flip turns vigorous swimming etc. and it's been great for keeping the bulk of our hair dry.

I wish there was a silk clothe on the inside, it would make the hair easier to manage. Besides that its very spacious and does keep the water out so, good product!

To my black and brown girlies , this is a must buy . I brought a medium for my natural hair and a large for my protective styles . This cap actually keeps your hair from getting wet ! I used the medium cap and its has just the right amount space for my thick hair ! I went under water at least 10 times and my hair was completely dried ! It’s so easy to put on , just make sure you put it over your ears for extra protection.

The SOUL CAP has revolutionized my swimming experience! As someone with long hair, finding a cap that accommodates my locks was a constant struggle until I discovered this gem. The design is thoughtful and practical, easily accommodating long hair, dreadlocks, weaves, extensions, braids, curls, and afros. The silicone material is both durable and comfortable, ensuring a secure fit without pulling or discomfort. Finally, I can enjoy swimming without the worry of it fitting my hair. This cap not only does the job but does it with style. It's a game-changer for anyone with long hair who loves to swim. Highly recommended for this fitting on your hair but you will get wet.

Before I purchased the Soul Cap I read many testimonies about it. When I received my cap I started using it for my swim and AquaFit classes and I was truly amazed. I have thick medium length hair and the medium cap fits great. My hair got wet a little around the perimeter of my hair but the rest of my hair stayed dry. This is an amazing swim cap and I have been telling all my friends and classmates about it. I plan to order about 5 more caps, one more for me and 4 others for my closest friends. I'm glad someone created a swim cap to keep "water lovers" hair dry while enjoying the water. Thank you for this product.

I was really disappointed (to the point of tears) that this cap didn’t work. I chose my size based on the photos and recommendations. I tried the cap on twice to make sure the fit looked right. I did a test run in the shower and everything was fine. I followed the instructions/tips to make sure the seal was intact, no air bubbles, etc. I got into the pool and could feel the water seeping in. The inside of my cap was very wet when I took it off and my braids were really damaged. I spent 9 hours getting my braids done and it was so disappointing for all of that time & money to go to waste.

Excellent quality and truly long-hair friendly!Finding a swimming cap that actually fits can be tough, but this one is perfect. The texture and overall quality are absolutely extra great. I have very long hair, and it all fits under the cap easily and comfortably without feeling too tight. The sizing is spot on. Five stars!

Compré esta gorra, porque mi cabello en ese momento era muy largo y me cubrió muy bien

I'm happy to found this large swim cap, ordered a large for long hair, it fitted well with excess room at the back though. With this big design felt comfortably covering ears & forehead without feeling too snap tight.

Die Badekappe lässt sich einfach aufziehen und beherbergt gut und sicher lange dicke Haare. Bis auf die Ränder hält sie auch dicht und drückt nicht. Sie hat ein angenehmes Tragegefühl (soweit man das bei Badekappen überhaupt sagen kann).

Extremely useful, keep my hair and braids dry mostly. Part of the hair on the back of the head around the neck get damp sometimes but overall better than any other cap I have used before. I strongly recommend

Necesitaba un gorro que no me diera dolor de cabeza por lo apretado . Tengo pelo largo y me dio comodidad y amplitud , me gustó muchoGracias !!!
