Paging any sleep bonnet users!

I'm after a sleep bonnet/turban type affair, partially to protect my curls (curly/wavy, just past my shoulder hair) and partially because I think I'm reacting to the last dye/treatment that was used on my hair and I'm trying to avoid contact.with the skin of my neck and chest.

I have a large-ish head and don't want to flatten my curls - can anyone recommend a bonnet/turban, ideally silk, that will have enough room and isn't too tight? I like the look of this delightful Golden Girls number but can't really tell how much room it would give me - it has measurements but I don't know how much give it would have:

I got my silk one from m and s, really good price too.

I too have an M & S silk bonnet/turban (with free silk scrunchie). I find it fits well, and not too tight, but my hair (waist length) doesn't fit in easily, so I don't wear that for bed very often now.

I have a Cantu bonnet with band, which has more room for my hair, but I stretched the band out as otherwise it leaves a band mark on my forehead! I have a couple of similar non brand bonnets, too. All satin-type fabric rather than silk, though, but they work fine for me.

I like the look of the bonnet in your link, adjustable 53-58 cm. It looks like it has more room for hair than the M & S bonnet. You could stretch the elastic, if it's snug, but then run the risk of it coming off during the night, which I find the turban-style bonnets more prone to.

Thanks both 😃 I hadn't realised M&S did one actually. I quite like the look of the Only Curls one, although it's satin rather than silk, but only £16 because of it:

The SilkUp and Silke London ones look lovely but they're pricey...
