Fabric Swim Cap for Adults and Big Kids

Product Information

If you like swimming without a cap we would suggest that you rinse your hair in the shower before you swim and rinse well after with shampoo and use a conditioner to help repair any damage from chlorine. If you swim regularly then we advise that you use a deep conditioning treatment once a week as well. In the present day swimcap.com has expanded into the niche printing, customising and personalising of swim caps, water bottles and sportswear apparel within several sectors of the sports and leisurewear market (schools, colleges, grassroots and professional academies), and our ideology of offering a bespoke and quality service manufactured in the UK is still at the forefront of everything we do.

When choosing the right swim hat, consider in what conditions you’ll be swimming. If you’re visiting a regular swimming pool, a standard swimming hat made out of silicone, latex or lycra will do the job. On the other hand, you might want to consider a neoprene cap for the added insulation in open water to deal with colder temperatures. A. No, unfortunately not. Swim caps are not designed to keep your hair dry but to reduce drag and for hygiene reasons. However, silicone caps or wearing two caps together with a silicone one on top, does create quite a good seal to prevent a lot of water seeping in. If you are swimming without putting your head in the water then a swim cap will protect your hair from splashes and will probably stay dry but if you swim with your head below the water line, water will seep into the cap because there is not a watertight seal. Hygiene: People who swim without a cap lose hair in the pool and this ends up floating in the water and clogging up the filters.Swimming caps are not just made for competitive swimmers but are highly beneficial for all sorts of pool users. If you want to keep your hair drier than it would be otherwise, perhaps because you are trying to get a few lengths in during your lunch break, they can be very helpful. Swimcap.com was formed in 1980, with a vision to significantly improve the level of service that existed in the sportswear industry. The early business model focused on creating client specific swimwear solely manufactured in the UK. A. There are long hair caps available from suppliers like Speedo and Zoggs which give a roomier fit to accommodate long hair. Bubble caps are also a good choice for longer hair and larger heads, although these do create warmth, so if you are a performance swimmer they may be too warm for you.

Swimming caps are a popular accessory to go with your swimsuit for those frequenting their local pool.To make you more streamlined in the water: If you swim competitively, speed is very important and your hair will cause water drag, which slows you down. A swimming cap will reduce water drag and keep your hair out of your face so that you can see as you swim. To protect your hair from the damaging effects of chlorine: Whilst your hair will still get wet, caps will prevent your hair from becoming saturated with the chlorinated water in the pool which can damage your hair.
