Hilph Migraine Headache Ice Cap for Chemotherapy – Soft, Skin-Friendly, Adjustable Cold & Heat Therapy Cap with 4 Reusable Gel Packs for Scalp Sensitivity, Chronic Headaches, Migraine Relief

I get migraines almost daily. I’ve tried multiple hats and this is my favorite! I’m going to buy another one. It has the longest cold retention, adjustable tightness, I can cover my eyes or leave them uncovered, move it down onto my neck more, and it’s soft. It’s also got a little weight to it so the counter-pressure actually helps my migraines more. Another plus, it’s one of the cheaper ones. Hope this helps.

Uses 4 gel cold packs. The better the cold packs the cooler your head. The included gel packs are sufficient to keep you head cool for about an hour.

Stays cold but does not form to head.

Feels great for minute. Then heats back up to body temp. Putting in the fridge keeps it cold longer but to cold to wear unless you want a brain freeze!Might be better as a heat mask or heat for belly.Compression is nice.

I had doubts about this because it sounds ridiculous and looks even more ridiculous but yet, it's actually kind of amazing. Does it cure my migraine? No. Does it smush my glasses farther into my face causing different pain? Yes. Does it cut down on migraine pain and make me feel much better, much quicker? YES! I try to avoid migraine meds at work because I deal with a lot of data entry and so have to be sharp- can't have a lot of brain fog. I pop this puppy on and it drastically cuts down on the pain without taking meds that linger and make me doopey. I bought a second- one to keep at work and one to keep at home. The only downside is that, when migraines wake me up in the middle of the night, I have to make the choice to either tough it out and not get out of bed or get out of bed and potentially keep myself up after the migraine stops. I don't usually get out of bed, but it's pretty tempting.

It has some weight, because there are ice packs, but it’s not too much and feels comfortable. The gentle cooling helps and I can even lay in it and fall asleep without issue. At times when a migraine is intolerable, this is what has helped me get through the pain. I love that I can adjust the openings to secure it, remove ice packs if there is a place that I don’t need or want them at the time. It’s an awesome product for what it is designed to do and I am so glad I tried it!

This product was a big bummer. I bought it because of all the special features it had that others didn't (especially for the price point), but in my opinion, why do a product different if you can't do it right? The hat isn't snug enough, it's too thick which I feel doesn't allow the cold to seep in well enough, the top part barely even touches the top of my head, it only stays cold for about 10 minutes, and the eye section rests just under your eyes it should go to your cheek bones. I'll still keep it as a back up. Great potential, poor execution :(

I had hoped that it would apply pressure to the face, and that I could tighten it with the strap if I needed to. Instead, it was very loose and stretchy. Even if it could be tightened more, it would just stretch without applying any pressure.
