Who will be able to fit into a swim cap?

Most adults should be able to use latex and silicone swimcaps. Both materials are very stretchy and should accommodate most adult headsizes. Children as young as 4 years old should also be able to wear these swimcaps, as young children are uncomfortable swim caps that fit too snugly ontheir heads.

What is the best way to put on a swim cap?

The best way to put a cap on is to hold it by the sidesand bend your head down. Start putting the cap on at the forehead and work iton down to the nape of your neck. Swimmers with really long hair can put theirhair into a bun on the top of their head, to keep the hair dry and secureinside the swim cap. If the wearer has very long or thick hair, the “bunmethod” may not work, as the swim cap will not fit tightly over the head. Ifthis is the case the swim cap wearer put their cap on half way and then twistup the rest and tuck it up inside as evenly and as far into the cap aspossible.
