Kind of like a thin, transparent shower cap? Maybe try an old ladies salon?

Although I'm not sure why you'd want one!

Mmmm, I see your point! But, unless you've got short permed hair surely it'll just give you 'hat hair'?

I've seen them at the local post office. They sort of sit high on the hair rather than squashing the 'do'.

I got one at my hospital shop, while waiting for an appointment. I think you might also be able to get one in a chemist.

Do you mean these My gran was never without one in her bag!!

They are like head scarfs aren't they. I think my gran had one.

We once went to benidorm and it rained so she made a hat out of a plastic bag so that her hair wouldn't get wet . I was 13 at the time and was so . God rest her

Scarves? Scarfs?

Passion Killers. That's what my granny called hers!
