If you wear wave caps or durags then you know what I'm talking about. How do y'all keep your forehead smooth?

You gotta use some of that cooking oil spray right onto your forehead breh :manny: Your problem is you've got too much friction between the wave cap and your forehead which is causing uncomfortable chafing/irritation. A few others have been playing around with vaseline, graphite, and various other substances in order to alleviate these kind of problems but the KEY is to get it taken care of early so your forehead doesn't end up looking like Troy McClure. I would recommend you go down to your local hardware store and experiment with a few of the solvents or lubricants that they stock and see what works for you, maybe bring your wave cap along and check each substance and it's friction modifiers. I have some literature that I can send you if you require any further assistance :salute:

Either get a Tsurag or put a napkin between were you wrap around you forehead.

That's how I use to do it.
I toss n turn when I sleep:dame:
So napkins, towels, n shyt just make it easier for my wave cap to come off while I'm sleeping

Nah I was the same, you don't sleep harder than me I'm for sure fam. Just tie the durag tight after you put a napkin or two under it or just get one that has velcrow like the TSUrag.

Don't tie it so tight :gucci:


yeah you dont need to be cinching it around your forehead. most durags have those broad ass tails for a reason, if you flatten them out around your forehead then it wont cinch and make a tight binding cord around your head. you can still get it tight, its just flat around the front and you wont have the lines. most good wave caps have that quarter inch border thats stretchy rather too to prevent lines and shyt. i probably didnt explain it well, its easier to show.
