Best Swimcap Ever!

ring review TYR Lycra Swim Cap Black

TYR Lycra Swim Cap Black

First, lycra caps are not for keeping your hair dry or water out of your ears. Lycra caps are designed to keep your hair out of your face (if your hair is that long) and out of other swimmers' mouths. Lycra caps are generally comfortable to wear and do not pull your hair when you put them on or take them off. I began wearing caps in the old days when most pools required caps to protect the filter system. Compared to Speedo lycra cap, the Tyr is slightly larger, the fabric is slightly heavier weight, and the sewing is slightly more robust. Together that means I prefer the Tyr by quite a bit. But if your head is very small, the Speedo may be a better fit. Remember to rinse the cap after each swim and it will last a lot longer but no lycra caps will last more than a few months (you will need at least 2 to get through a long summer season of daily swims).

  2. Good fit, nice quality, great price! Helpful by itself but especially good under a latex or silicone cap for protecting hair and easier to wear or remove without tearing or pulling hair.

  3. Lycra is like a fabric material and does not grab the hair. I am really happy with this product. Will never buy the silicone and latex caps.

  4. I bought 5 of these - 3 for my swim team kids, and 2 for another family's kids. What a difference! They had such a hard time putting on their standard swim caps (made of latex) as it pulled their hair, snapped, etc. The lycra is so comfortable. All five kids love it and are going to great lengths to take good care of these. They can put the lycra caps on and take them off at will without any complaints. The kids are 11, 10, 9, 7, and 5. Fits them all. The only possible drawback is that it doesn't keep water out of the ears, which my 5YO wishes.

  5. Much nicer than silicone caps, which don't keep my long hair dry anyway.
    Wet your hair, and put some ordinary conditioner in BEFORE swimming if you want to protect your hair.
    No swim cap can keep the chlorine out anyway.

    My TYR cap has lasted more than a year so far

  6. I have always hated swim caps, however, this makes them easier to put on and easier to tolerate. After putting on this cap, I am able to put on a large silicone swim cap without pulling my hair (or wanting to pull my hair out!) Thanks to the other reviewer who suggested doing this for her long hair.

  7. I love this swim cap. I love it so much, I'm re-ordering it after having lost mine. As I think most people realize, this cap is not intended to keep your hair dry, nor is any cap. Its intent is to keep your hair out of your face while you swim, and protect from the chlorine in the water. This does a great job on both of those issues. It goes on easily and stays put the whole time I'm in the water. I've tried other caps like the View Swim Cap View Swim Cap Silicone Rubber. Those are a pain to get on, pull my hair and continually creep off my head while I'm swimming. Those type of caps function better as a shower cap. In contrast the TYR Lycra swim cap fits like a dream, and doesn't pull my hair out, or give me a headache while I'm wearing it. Highly recommended!

  8. I bought this to wear UNDER another cap, so it works fine for those purposes. If I put this lycra cap on prior to my silicone cap, my hair doesn't get pulled and it makes putting the silicone cap on easier. I have a large head with long hair, so I need a larger cap and this one works great. Have a Speedo of the same variety and it's just too small. Pulls off very easily.
