Humidity has met its match.
I love that I can modify the fit in the version I have, but depending on what you'll be using it for, you can opt for the one without drawstrings. I use it to sleep so I prefer it to be tighter at night and loose in the day — if that's the case for you then the cap with strings for $29.95 will be perfect for you. But if you'll only be using it for the cold and humidity, then you can get the original, elastic-band design for $19.99. No matter which version you get, they are all lined with high-quality satin.
Most hats are made from cotton which dries out your hair because it absorbs any natural oils or products that you've put on. Plus, it can tug at your strands which will only make it frizzier — which is why this satin option is so great!
If you're not a fan of the beanie look or looking for something less snug, they have turbans, hair bands, other hat styles, and silk pillowcases so you can give your skin the five-star treatment, too.
(Psst, if you're loving The Slap Cap just as much as I do, you should also check out another small Black-woman owned business called Kin. They sell clothing, accessories, hair styling products, and bedding lined with super soft satin.)
Promising review: "I love this cap! It feels soft on the outside and cozy and luxurious inside. It’s a great cap to sleep in or go out. I wore this cap after freshly washing my natural hair and braiding twists and it kept my head warm overnight and remained on my head throughout the night. I wish I could have bought a couple more." —Bon Bon
Promising review: "Not sure why I never got one before. My hair looks pretty much the same as before I put on the cap; even after a sweaty workout! I have washed it and used it as a sleeping cap as well. The elastic in the headband is firm, but not uncomfortable. The hat itself is technically a slouch hat so could also be worn outdoors during the cooler months for warmth or to preserve the hairstyle before arriving to a destination." —Amri Gray
Promising review: "I love love LOVE this cap! I simply cannot wait to order more in every single color! It slides right off my hair without any snagging. I tried sleeping with it recently and my hair was perfect in the morning, I just ran a quick brush over it. This will be my winter cap from now on, NO MORE SNAGGING!" —Veronique Prezeau
