FAQs

Is this cap suitable for children?

This cap is designed with a large diameter for adults. It may be too loose for children.

Can I use this cap in a chlorine pool?

Yes, but ensure you rinse it with fresh water immediately after use to prevent chlorine from breaking down the latex.

Will this cap keep my hair completely dry?

While the cap is highly effective at containing hair and keeping most of it dry, no swimming cap is 100% waterproof. Some water may seep in depending on the fit.

Does this cap contain latex?

Yes, this product is made entirely from latex. If you have a latex allergy, this product should not be used.

Why are there bubbles on the surface of the cap?

The air-filled bubbles are a functional design feature intended to provide extra insulation, keeping your head warmer in cooler water.

Troubleshooting

The cap is difficult to put on over long hair.

Ensure hair is tied in a low, flat bun. Using a small amount of water on your hair before putting the cap on can also help it slide into place more easily.

Cap keeps slipping off during swimming.

Check that there is no hair trapped under the seal near the forehead. Ensure the cap is pulled down low enough to cover the ears.

Latex is becoming sticky or tacky.

Rinse the cap thoroughly and dry it completely. You may apply a small amount of non-scented talcum powder to restore a smooth surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your latex swim cap, follow these care steps after every swim: 1. Rinse the cap thoroughly with fresh, cool water to remove all chlorine or salt residue. 2. Air dry the cap away from direct sunlight, which can cause the latex to crack or lose elasticity over time. 3. Avoid contact with sharp objects like hair clips or long fingernails when putting the cap on, as latex is prone to tearing. 4. If the cap becomes tacky over time, a light dusting of talcum powder can help preserve the material. Store the cap in a cool, dark, and dry place when not in use.
