Review (5/5): While It IS A Little Tight...
I have used this bonnet several times for deep conditioning my naturally curly hair.
Yes, I rinsed it in water and laid it on a towel to dry before first use. No big deal. I wrapped it in a towel and put it in the microwave for two to three 30-second blasts before using it the first time.
It worked like a dream.
Maybe I just have a big ol’ head, but that elastic band made me feel like it was trying to force the brains out of my head. I’m hoping the elastic will loosen up after some more use, but all in all? It works as described and my curls have never looked better after deep conditioning!
