IceBeanieMigraine Relief Cap, As Seen on Shark Tank, Soft & Stretchy Gel Tension Headache Relief Cap, Extended Cooling Hangover Ice Hat, Odorless Cold Head Ice Pack Wrap, Headache Hat Migraine Mask

As someone who struggles with debilitating migraines, I’ve tried everything—medications, essential oils, blackout curtains, you name it. But nothing has brought me the instant, soothing relief like the IceBeanie Migraine Relief Cap. This product has truly changed my life.The moment I put it on, I felt the cool, calming effect begin to work. The 360° full-head and eye coverage is genius—every part of my head that usually throbs during a migraine is covered, including my temples, forehead, and even my eyes. The Proprietary Gel-Tech stays cold longer than any ice pack I’ve used before, giving me the time I need to relax and ride out the pain without constantly getting up to refreeze.It’s incredibly soft, stretchy, and comfortable, which is important when you’re hypersensitive to everything during a migraine. I can even pull it over my eyes to block out the light and get full-face relief—total game changer.What really sets the IceBeanie apart is the dual therapy feature. I’ve used it cold for migraines and hot for tension headaches or neck stiffness, and it works wonders both ways. Plus, it’s lightweight, portable, and doesn’t have any weird odors—perfect for taking with me when I travel or need relief at work.I also appreciate that it’s form-fitting and stays in place, even if I move around or fall asleep with it on. I never feel like I have to constantly readjust it, which makes a huge difference when all I want is to rest.If you suffer from migraines, headaches, hangovers, or even just stress tension—do yourself a favor and get this cap. I honestly don’t know how I managed before discovering the IceBeanie. It’s not just a product—it’s peace of mind.

I bought the IceBeanie after seeing positive reviews, and I’m honestly so glad I did. I suffer from migraines and tension headaches, and this has become my go-to remedy. The beanie fits snugly but comfortably on my head, covering my forehead, temples, and back of the neck all at once.The gel inserts get cold quickly in the freezer and stay cold for a decent amount of time—about 20 to 30 minutes of cooling relief, which is perfect for most of my flare-ups. I love that it’s hands-free, so I can still relax, lie down, or even walk around without having to hold anything in place.The material is soft and stretchy, and the stitching feels high quality. It doesn’t feel bulky, and it’s not overly cold to the point of discomfort—just very soothing. It’s also been great for reducing puffiness or cooling down after workouts or hot days.If you’re looking for a natural, non-medicinal way to deal with headaches, migraines, or even sinus pressure, this is 100% worth trying. Highly recommend!

In 2004 I developed a headache that never went away. Every hour of every day (and night), the only thing that varied was how bad it was. It was a focused pain covering the entire top of my head, like a crushing weight. The only relief I found was ice packs, and getting them to stay where I needed always annoyed me over the years, and what do I do about the tension headache in my temples or forehead that develop because of the pain on the top of my head? The icepack couldn't cover it all. This IceBeanie CAN and is absolutely *perfect*, even if it's a bit too large since I don't want it to cover my eyes and my ears, but I can just roll that part up! Over the decades of doctors throwing everything they could at my Mystery Headache, the only thing that has really helped has been Botox injections and ice, and this IceBeanie is the perfect application of that ice in the best way possible.

Update: Customer service did send me a replacement, although it took a while-- after I sent them the pictures shown here, and they had agreed to replace the beanie, and confirmed my shipping address on October 12, I had to contact them again on October 29 as I still had not received the replacement. At that time they seemed to indicate that they hadn't yet "initiated" a replacement... I received the replacement beanie a couple days later. Regarding the leakage, I was told "Sometimes during Amazon shipping the product can become compromised and damaged." I'm not sure if that's accurate/possible, but they were willing to work with me to ensure my customer satisfaction.Having used the original beanie (with substituted ice packs for broken top pack as I previously mentioned, below) for 12 chemo rounds now (30 mins or less per time), I find the stitching has come undone along one seam- easy fix, but this product still needs some tweaking for that and with the ice packs. I do like how the beanie fabric stretches to better enable you to get it on when it's frozen/rigid, and to keep the cold close to the scalp, though the seams may need greater reinforcement to ensure longevity of use. It would also be good if the pockets for the ice packs had a Velcro closure rather than just slightly overlapping fabric (I tried to show this barely 1 cm overlap in picture) as the fabric is floppy and after removing and then replacing the packs while the beanie is inside out, it doesn't hold them in well when inverting it to then put the beanie in the freezer.An option for a beanie without the ponytail/back of head gap in coverage would also be good, and not just for chemo use-- when I get a migraine it is often caused by/related to the muscles at the base of my skull and icing there helps me. Turning the beanie around doesn't work so great because then the Velcro closure part is pressing into your forehead. The ice packs, once frozen, are very hard/non-pliable so some of them freeze in wonky positions when placing the cap in freezer folded in half, so they're not very comfortable if a part isn't flat and is pressing against your head... I really like the IceKaps brand gel packs because they are much more pliable when frozen, so I almost think using those in the beanie is better than what comes with it currently (at least for my purposes with cold-capping trying to get whole head cold).Overall, I think I would still have purchased the IceBeanie as the fabric is more pliable and the product is less expensive than the IceKaps, but for my purposes I have used both and each gets the job done ok with some improvisation- if you can afford the IceKaps, I'd lean towards them for cold-capping because of the colder ice packs. I have also used the NEWGO migraine hat- reviewed that product separately on Amazon, too. I still have not had any hair loss, and have 4 more chemo treatments with different drugs, so I am hoping to continue that good fortune! 🤞Original review:I bought this with several other cold cap products (e.g. including 3 of the IceKaps brand) to use in rotation for "cold-capping" during my weekly chemotherapy infusion treatments to try and prevent/reduce hair loss from the drug Taxol, which is commonly used for breast cancer treatments. Well, so far I've had virtually no hair loss beyond usual shedding, which is great, BUT, when I went to replace the non-frozen gel packs in their hat pockets in preparation for next week's treatment (after letting all the packs and hat melt/dry out from my treatment earlier this week) I found one of the packs had two holes from which gel was leaking out. :( And the holes weren't directly on seams which I find is usually how ice packs (though usually much older/more used!) deteriorate/break/leak; the holes looked as if the plastic had cracked while it was frozen; not sure how else it would have happened as it's not like they were under pressure or poked, roughly handled, etc? I've only used the beanie 6 times, wearing it for less than 30 minutes each time, and while it works great in general, it is very disappointing to find part of it is now unusable/ needing to be replaced with an alternative cold pack though finding a long narrow pack is not an easy task- fortunately, the IceKap has such packs for its use and I was able to purchase spare packs for that product separately-- not so with the ice beanie, at least not that I could find. While half the price of the IceKap, it appears the ice beanie isn't as durable. And I had to add an ice pack to the back ponytail area (wearing it under the ice beanie) since for my purposes I don't want a large portion of my head without ice coverage) but had to do the same with the IceKaps due to similar structures.I contacted customer service and am hoping to get a replacement pack; also hoping no more packs leak! I'm barely halfway through my treatments! I will update if I hear back from customer service and they hold true to their 100% guarantee (despite their website saying they can't refund/replace products 30+ days after purchase, just like Amazon.
