Headache Hat Halo - Migraine Relief Cap Long Lasting Cooling Ice Pack Mask - Cold Compress Head Wrap for Tension, Stress & Hangover Natural Cooling Therapy

Wow, it only took me 12 years to learn about these migraine caps / wraps but it is very helpful. While it doesn't stop my migraine completely, the combination of cold and pressure on my forehead is fantastic. This isn't so much of a "cap" but more of a wrap (approximately 6" by 30") or so that I've frozen and wrapped around my head above my eyes. This product consists of the wrap and has prefilled pockets that have a liquid that freezes and can be placed around my head as needed. The pressure almost helps me more than just the frozen benefit but the cold lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours and feels incredible. Great for any migraineur who has tried almost all types of relief.

These Headache Hat brand wraps are the absolute best and long-lasting migraine ice hats I've found. I have 24/7 pain after nerve damage from having shingles on my head. As a result, I have to wear ice hats/wraps all day. I've bought so many from different brands, and these are hands down the best.

My daughter suffers from daily migraines so I purchased the Headache Hat for her in 2020. To say this has been a godsend is an understatement. It is truly the only thing that makes her feel better on a daily basis. The "hat" is made of 3 rows of "ice cubes"-which are fluid filled plastic pillows(my description) that turn solid when placed in the freezer. The hat itself wraps around your head and can be adjusted for tightness by a piece of velcro. I do recommend buying the cloth sleeve that covers it as the hat is a little too cold without it.For some reason, it never occurred to me to purchase a second one, but I decided to get another one so she could swap out the first when it gets warm. She says it typically stays cold for about 1 1/2 hours. I've read some people flip it over to the other side to use it even longer.My daughter loved the first one immediately. There was no breaking in time. This new one was a bit tighter and just not as comfortable for her to use. I thought that maybe it needed to stretch a bit, but was still irritated that it wasn't like the original. I decided to go the theheadache.com website to see if maybe I should order directly from the site. The owner, Sherri, answered me almost immediately. I cannot say enough great things about the response I received! Sherri was so responsive and just wanted to make everything right. She expressed that she wished people would reach out to her directly to see if she can resolve any problems they may have. She also explained that these hats are made by sewers and not machines so there can be a small margin of error in the sizing, but typically the standard size is 22-23 inches and the XL size is 24-25 inches and they do stretch little over time. I measured the original and sent her a picture comparing the two. I ended up returning the original hat and purchased from her site directly. There are also other items for sale on her website. There is still a little adjustment to the new hat, but overall, my daughter is very pleased to have a second one available when she needs it. Regardless if you purchase on Amazon or from her website, I advise reaching out to her directly if you are not happy with your purchase. There is an option on Amazon to do that when you start the return process. Excellent customer service!

POSITIVE: This head pack is awesome at staying cold! It stayed cold for 2 hours! My other ice packs last 20 minutes, tops, and they are not as cold as this ice pack. I also like the coverage around the sides of the temples and head, because most head packs don’t include those. I also love that once it gets warmer you can flip it inside out to get more cold ice. Great for migraines!NEGATIVE: The ice squares that are throughout the pack become big rock cubes that put pressure all around the head in an uncomfortable way. There is no possible way of laying down with this head pack on because it feels like I’m laying down on a bunch of rocks.DECISION: I will definitely keep this ice pack because it stays cold for so much longer than any other pack I’ve ever tried. I use it almost every night when I read before bed and use it as my day pack when I am up and about. Then I will switch to gel or something softer when I lay down for rest/sleep. Definitely recommend for migraine sufferers!
