Review: Keeps Hair Dry with Modifications - I have medium length wavy hair and swim daily. I have tried many swim caps to keep my hair dry!! While no swim cap is capable of keeping hair 100% dry, here is the routine and products that I have found to keep my hair 85% dry. The 2nd photo is of my hair is right after swimming breastroke and freestyle laps doing flip turns, swimming underwater to 12 feet deep, and floating on my back. Only the back and edges above my ears are slightly damp. TYR Long Hair Swim Cap Sync Hair Guard & Ear Guard Headband Speedo Vanquisher 2.0 Swim Goggles Cut strip of an exercise resistance band I put my hair up in a high bun that sits right behind my forehead. Then I flip my head upside down and put the TYR cap on with the letters in the front. I ensure that the cap is fully over my ears and hair. Next, I put the Sync hair guard over the TYR cap with the words right side up in the front. I make sure it overlaps the swim cap by about a cm on all sides. Finally, I tie the resistance band strip like a headband over both, making sure it is tied under my ears. The goggles go over everything. Since this pair is small they seal even though the cap is close to my eyes. After swimming I rub a half teaspoon of ascorbic acid powder between my hands and over the wet parts of my hair to neutralize the chlorine instead of getting my hair more wet by rising. This is the active ingredient in expensive swim products, but much cheaper to buy on it's own. I then apply leave in conditioner to the damp areas.
Review: Works well as an addition to a swim cap! - I purchased this headband as a “addition” to my swim cap. I am not really a true lap swimmer, but I wanted to start somewhere and the one thing holding me back was my hair. I have thick long hair and once it is wet, it takes forever to dry so I decided to purchase this item along with an extra large swim cap that was made for long, thick hair. The headband works well with the swim cap but there are a few things to remember to do in order to get the least amount of leakage: 1. Make sure you follow the directions on the package. 2. It is fine to put your hair in a ponytail on top of your head to get stray hairs out of the way. 3. I found it helpful to invert my head upside down and then pull the band over my head and ears. It took some time for me to get the routine down but it keeps the top of my head pretty dry. The nape of my neck gets a little wet as the band will “creep” up, but I don’t have sopping wet hair. I can deal with a little dampness. Like most reviews of other products of this kind, there isn’t a perfect seal or waterproof product that will keep your head 100% dry. Again I am not the serious lap swimmer where I am doing flip turns and racing in the water. I leisurely do a few laps, switch to a different stroke, and then come back to lap swimming. I do not know how this band would react when doing lengthy laps, backstrokes, or flip turns. One other thing I should mention is that it is pretty tight around your head and ears so if you are uncomfortable to tightness around your face and head you may not care for this item.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this be good to wear under my normal swim cap and keep it from sliding off in the water?**
A: Yes it does help I have done both but I use it under my cap and over it. My purpose is mostly to keep the water from leaking through the cap to keep my hair dry.

**Q: Will this keep my inner ears completely dry?! Nothing worse than swimmers ear, right?**
A: No.This significantly reduces the water but does not completely keep water out. I use a swimming cap over this and I  still get a small amount of water seeping under both the cap and ear guard.  I have used several types of swimming caps and still get seepage.I do love the band as it is very comfortable, would not buy any other brand.

**Q: Is this small enough for school age children**
A: It would fit my granddaughters age 5 and 7.

**Q: Can I use this for my 6 year old daughter**
A: In my opinion, it would be too large for a six year old.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keeps the water out of my ears
*by I***S on January 2, 2024*

I put it on first, then my Speedo swim cap, then my goggles. Worked great with no need for ear plugs. However, when I put goggles on first, then the band and swim cap, my goggles leaked. If you have an ear disease, you would still need to put something in your ears. Sometimes when I swim, a drop or 2 of water get in, and sometimes my ears are totally dry. You have to fiddle a bit at first to get the best fit. Too low and it puts too much pressure on my head. Too high and it doesn't cover my ears. Just right is easy once you know how.
