Water Gear Bubble Swim Cap - Ideal for Long Hair and Women's Swimming - Will Keep Long Hair Dry and Secure While Still Providing a Comfortable Fit - Shave Time Off Your Lap - Large Purple

What's the sense of wearing a swim cap if your hair still gets wet? I don't get it. I have a Big head and this cap does fit.

Ok so if you swim (and I mean SWIM for real) you know that NO cap will keep water out. It just doesn't work that way. If you are swimming with your head always above water, or doing water aerobics, or water walking then of course this (or any other cap) will keep your hair dry.I bought this because I have colored hair. Before I head to the pool I smear conditional all through it to help keep the color. But then the caps slip off my head as I swim! I got this one for the chin strap hoping it will stay on. Well, it does stay on just fine. But I felt kind of claustrophobic or something. If you've ever tried swimming in a triathlon wetsuit you know the feeling. I will keep using it for swims where I am doing long stretches of swimming without stopping. If I am pausing to switch up drills I'll wear a normal one because I am pausing and I can pull the capo back on.Oh--and this rubber is thick, so in a hot pool like my gym has then it makes me overheat. So it is up to you if you need this style or not!

If you have a large head, this cap is for you! I ended up using a rubber band to "gather up" some of the cap so it wouldn't come down over my eyes or rub the back of my neck. They should have these in "large" and "small" ADULT sizes, because "one size does NOT fit all!"

I haven’t tried it in the pool yet but I think it’ll work as well as any of them do.

I wear this cap for my daily laps in the backyard pool. The reason I wear a cap is to protect my scalp from the effects of chlorine. I didn’t wear one last season and I had significant hair loss by the time summer was over. This cap does let water in around the back and the sides of my face, even with the strap in place, which is to be expected with any swim cap. But it keeps my scalp dry. It does the job and it’s flexible — easy to put on and take off.

I love this cap - I struggled with Speedo and TYR caps because they were so tight and and pulled my hair, and required constant adjustment. In a .75 mile swim I never tugged this one once. I liked the bouancy. I have a fairly big head and it fit well.WIth an ear band underneath, it kept my hair dryer than any other cap has, although it did still get damp on the ends.I don't think the chin strap will last long - the end broke off when I tried to tighten it the first time. Tightening it is not easy - I wish it has a button or something. I snapped it on my eyeballs the first time I put it on. The strap is the only reason I gave it 4 stars- otherwise it would be 5.

It does not keep water out 100% but if I tighten it, I manage to keep most of the water out... I coat my hair in conditioner and then put the cap on. This manages to protect my hair from what water does seep in.It’s not perfect but this is the best cap I have come across...Update: that was my initial evaluation.It’s now been 18 days and after only 12 days of use... today I noticed the leakage was worse. When I went to check the fit, I realized the rubber seal around the edge had begun to tear free... I’m very disappointed.

I was hoping for this cap to be more durable than the $10 swim caps I get at the pool.I used this cap once. I got a large because I have thick full hair. It fit perfectly underneath. I also put a second swim cap under, just for security, and my hair was just a little bit wet after my 1-hour swim (laps).On the second day, the cap ripped... I had decided to keep the strap snapped on because I read the reviews that the buckle part tends to break. I only put a bit of tension on the strap and the cap ripped. For almost $35 CAD, and having to wait almost a week for my order, I'm disappointed.I will also add that the cap is discoloured, looking faded in some spots. It doesn't really show in the pic I uploaded.Had the cap for less than a week and I'll be returning it.And so, the hunt for the almost-perfect-cap continues...

This cap is the best one I have tried so far. Although it doesn't fully protect the hair from getting wet, I would say your hair only gets 30% wet which is very good compared to other caps I have tried.

I love it very comfy, the best thing is my hair not wet I have long hair have to tie it up the cap fit well
