How do you keep it on all night? Anyone here with experience? Do you wear it so that it covers your ears? Do you secure it with grips?! I wore one for the first time last night to try to detangle, and YES I’ve woken up without matted area at the back of my head. But it slipped off in the night and I was rummaging around looking for it in the dark!

I like to pull mine right the way down and use it as both a sleep cap and an eye mask 😀

Ha, that’s brilliant! And does it stay on that way?!

@SocksAndTheCity that's a great idea!

Silk / satin pillowcase ?

I used to wear a silk eye mask with it and the elastic of the mask keep the silk turban in place. Or failing that, it kept the turban hanging off the elastic at the back of my head so it was easy to find lol.

I never realised how much I must wriggle around at night until I tried silk turbans. I also find that the elastic in the turban starts to go and they get looser and looser. I tried a few but it happened with all of them. Now I've swapped to using a HUGE silk eye mask from Drowsy that also protects most of my hair too. And it doesn't move or need elastic!

It almost always does - occasionally I wake up without it on but I suspect I've probably been too hot and taken it off myself when I'm asleep.

Mine isn't a proper silk one either, it's the satin lined long beanie type with a fair bit of space at the back (I have a lot of hair) so there's plenty to pull down :)

The Silke ones stay on me. The other brands I've tried, not so much!
