Excelente producto.

had 8 treatments of chemotherapy taxol. Used these cold caps as directed. AMAZING!!!!Taxol has a 95% rate of losing hair... I did not lose my hair and I think it was these cold caps.highly highly recomment

I love this product. It fits perfectly. It's a cold cap for midraines and chemo therapy to prevent hair loss.Great value.

I disliked that you can use it for only 30 minutes.I used it for chemotherapy.

As a 70 year old I'm still suffering from hot flashes. I have a wide assortment of ice packs, but this cap goes straight to the source, my scalp! It's easy to put on and remove as desired and will fit a variety of sizes. I will be using this frequently. Thank you!

I bought 2 of those for my wife undertaking a chemo treatment in the hope she would not loose her hair to no avail. First, they must be kept in the fridge only before use, we usually put them in the fridge 2 days before so the cold reaches deep in the gel but they reach room temperature within 15-20 minutes while treatment lasts for 30 to 90 minutes. Rotating them by putting the warm one in the cooler does not really help since you must wear that 30 minutes prior, then during and 30 minutes after the infusion. In the end, the wife lost her hair anyway. It may be useful for headache relief, I don't know. They are heavy but comfortable though! Please remove the mention about the chemo therapy statement in the product description, it is misleading.

I noticed "Frequently Returned Item" in product reviews, same as cooling gloves and socks.I would like to make fellow patients Awareness to practice purchasing Cooluli Portable Cooler. Can even plug into usb.

I bought these as a cheaper but still quality alternative for doing cold capping for chemo.Tldr; while I didn't get the product in the mail fast enough for my first chemo round and to NOT lose my hair (packaging NEEDS to change), once received the product helped my scalp health enough to grow my hair back while I'm still doing the chemo that lost it. My oncologist is impressed. Pics are after 13 weeks.BUY EARLY. WATCH SHIPPING LIKE A HAWK:The biggest warning for buyers is to get the caps before you start chemo early enough for a reorder and don't delay. Because my package was massively delayed and never came in I just waited to call like they ask you to, but my problem is once I called it was past the delivery time frame to get a reshipment even on an expedited basis ( although I had one of my calls tell me it wasn't, but it was). So order early, and if delayed call BEFORE the cut off for getting a reshipment so you can order again.I think the problem is that when orders are fulfilled for multiple hats, they place them in a bag still for delivery and not a solid box. The hats flop around in the bag and the bag catches on something, rips and the product gets lost. I know this because the second delivery (the first I never received) had tons of plastic tape wrapped around it after a big rip. Luckily no product was lost on second delivery, but it was a near thing.The packaging for multiple hat deliveries NEEDS. TO. CHANGE.It should be in a more secure box!I told the Amazon customer service manager I buy these to NOT look like Jeff Bezos. No offence to him, he does rock his bald head.SIZING:The product itself is superb. Just make sure you buy the right size. If you need frozen booties or gloves too, you can get a single hat in a pack as well, so that can be a good way to verify your size with an order of 1 as well. My batch order somehow ended up one size up, they still functioned ok for me but it flopped down into my eyes.Even with it lower on my head, I have still lost my eyebrows. :)YOUR KIT:* A buddy/helper to do switches if you are too tired, and/or iced up on hands and feet and especially if the cooler can't be in the same room for space restrictions* 1 larger rolling cooler (save your back!!!)* 3-4 bags of ice (we kept putting the ice back in the bags they came in after each use and reused as much as we could to save on money)* Nitrile gardening gloves for your helper to be comfy rooting through the icy cooler* Large easy open/close ziplock bags* Small cheap spray bottle for water* Gentle, good quality conditioner* Amazon basics heated blanket* Bag to carry non cooler things* a hammer - when reusing ice you may need to break it apart if it got melty before refreezing. Bonus frustration release moment because you're going to another chemo. :)OUR METHOD:1) I bought 6 hats to rotate every 13 minutes or sooner, we rotating back to the first hat it was generally cool2) freeze in bags the night before chemo in freezer3) Hour before leaving, layer the hats and/or other freezing packs in the ice in the cooler4) Put the first hat on 15 min before - spray water on roots, apply conditioner to roots - the goal here is to increase conductivity of the cold.6) Check in and get to chemo7) Bundle up the rest of your body in the cozy electric blanket.8) Have your helper rebag and switch the hats up every 13 minutes or, if they start to feel too warm. Check that the hair is still damp/moist and if not reapply water/conditioner.9) Helper needs to bag and put the last hat back in the cooler to refreeze.TIPS/NOTES:* Bag the hats inside out, it refreezes the inside of the hat more effectively where it contacts your scalp.* Another review did 10 min and 8 hats, it worked for me for 13 and 6, but I found that was pushing it. They can get warm.* The hats are easy to walk around in and comfortable.* You need to check that your skin/short hair hasn't gotten dry and respray if you only used water (which I did when my hair was only a buzz cut).* The hat freezing material was similar to the older elastoplast gloves provided by my hospital. Not as thick, but very effective.* Not having the right size of hat was only slightly annoying, but I do have a thin spot up top where the sections join. Likely from my slightly too large size. Small fit good and I'm 21 1/4" Medium was a bit big and rested on my ears. I would order smaller if you're borderline and not sure, the hats can stretch a bit.* The Amazon basics blanket was godsend to keep me warm when all my extremities were freezing, highly recommend getting it too.* For my treatment, I put the first hat on 15 minutes before and left on for 15 minutes after.* It didn't save my eybrows/eyelashes.COST:My overall cost was under 500 for everything: I got a good price on the hats, a rolling cooler off Craigslist, 5 hats here, 1 from the kit, 4 bags of ice periodically refreshed, cheap nitrile gloves and spray bottle. The amazon basics electric blanket was a gift.PRODUCT EVAL:The product was comfortable, amazing and was an easy slip on and slip off, I tried the other hat that has 6 gel packs, bulky, and it didn't work( lost my hair) and was challenging to put on and off stuffing gel packs in. By comparison, this had thin material that conducted the cold way better, similar to hospital provided materials, just not as thick, and no individual gel pack prep. The freezing material was better than the liquid gel packs too.CONCLUSION:I had great success with this product going through my chemo and will keep and continue to use it for any future chemos.I can't tell you it will save your hair from your first dose, but my oncologist is quite complementary of the hair I have growing back and that in her experience it's unusual to have this much grown back while still undergoing my chemo. She even encouraged me to write this review. The nurses were surprised at my chemo today as well.Best of health and luck in your treatment!
