The constant head bobbing and waking up due to uncomfortable positions are common issues faced by travelers. Enter the "Travel Pillow Alternative Stops Head Bobbing," a revolutionary head strap designed to provide ultimate head and neck support during upright travel, be it on airplanes or car rides. Compact, comfortable, and efficient, this strap is an excellent solution for those looking to secure their head position and enhance travel comfort. ### Advantages 1. **Prevents Head Bobbing**: Unlike traditional travel pillows, this head strap effectively prevents heads from falling forward, reducing sleep interruptions. 2. **Versatile Setup**: It can be configured in multiple ways, either over the forehead, eyes, or chin, allowing customization based on personal comfort and headrest positioning. 3. **Compact and Portable**: The strap rolls up small, making it incredibly easy to pack without taking up much space in your luggage. 4. **Soft and Cushioned**: With a thickly padded section, it offers softness and comfort that makes sleeping on a plane or in a car much more pleasant. 5. **Easy to Adjust**: Despite initial setup being a bit cumbersome, once adjusted, it maintains the head's stability effectively even on longer flights. 6. **Enhances Use of Pillows**: It complements other travel pillows by providing frontal support, allowing you to use side pillows for lateral head stability. 7. **Lightweight**: Barely adds weight to your carry-on, making it easy to bring along on any trip. 8. **Flexible Use**: Can be used across seats, making it versatile for different travel settings beyond just airplanes. 9. **Improved Design for Reclining Seats**: Works exceptionally well with seats that recline, enhancing comfort during flights. 10. **Minimized Neck Pain**: By keeping the head in place, it reduces neck strain, providing a more comfortable sleep experience. ### Disadvantages 1. **Initial Setup is Tricky**: Setting the strap up can be challenging, especially on crowded flights or without assistance. 2. **May Not Fit All Seats**: Some users find difficulty using it on certain airplane seat designs, particularly without adjustable headrests. 3. **Limited Adjustment on Some Seats**: Once secured, adjusting the strap can be difficult without removing it completely. 4. **Potential Imprint Marks**: Depending on usage, some users have reported texture imprints on the skin, though these can be mitigated by flipping the strap. 5. **Not Universally Comfortable**: The strap may not work well for everyone, particularly if used incorrectly or not tightened adequately. 6. **Can Block Entertainment Screens**: When wrapped around some headrests, it may obscure the backseat monitors. 7. **Requires Frequent Adjustments**: Especially when first used, adjustment periods may be longer until users find the optimal positioning. 8. **Less Effective Without Additional Support**: Optimal for use with other travel pillows to provide complete head support. 9. **May Not Suit All Face Size and Shape**: Although adjustable, its fit could vary depending on individual head sizes and shapes. 10. **Solo Travelers May Face Difficulties Setting Up**: Solo travelers might struggle with the initial setup without any help. ### Conclusion The Travel Pillow Alternative Head Strap presents a simple yet effective solution for those seeking to improve their travel sleeping experience by keeping their head stable. While it has its set of challenges, particularly in initial setup and compatibility variations, its benefits far outweigh the downsides for many users who have found unprecedented comfort and ease in using it. This innovative product stands out as a valuable accessory for frequent travelers. ### FAQ 1. **Can this strap be used with any type of seat?** - It works best with seats that have adjustable headrests and sufficient space between the headrest and seatback. 2. **Is the strap comfortable for long flights?** - Yes, it is designed to be cushioned and soft, ensuring comfort over extended periods. 3. **Can I use it without a travel pillow?** - Yes, it can be used without additional pillows, though many find combining it with side-support pillows enhances comfort. 4. **How compact is the strap for packing?** - The strap can be rolled up to a compact size, approximately 3 inches, making it easy to carry. 5. **Does it fit all head sizes?** - It is adjustable and fits a range of head sizes, although some people may require extra adjustments for an ideal fit. 6. **Is the strap suitable for children?** - While adjustable, the suitability for children depends on their size and comfort preference. 7. **Can this product block out light as a sleep mask does?** - It can be positioned over the eyes to help block out light, but for full coverage, it is best paired with a dedicated sleep mask. 8. **How do I clean the head strap?** - It is recommended to hand wash or spot clean the strap to maintain its integrity and comfort padding. 9. **Does the strap leave marks on the face?** - Depending on the strap’s tightness and position, it might leave temporary marks, mitigated by using the softer side against the skin. 10. **Is it recommended for use outside of planes?** - Yes, it can be used in cars, buses, and trains, offering similar head and neck support across various modes of transport.

Title: Simple and works perfectly
Content: Tried every travel pillow.. inc all the weird shaped ones.. all have the same problem: they don't keep your head from falling forward, so you always wake up - and that sudden fall forward is what wakes you up, and you're usually in pain from having your neck bent forward. This simple device attaches to the front of the headrest (most planes have semi-detached headrests mounted to the front of the seat so you do not have to put the strap around the back of the seat itself into the person behind you's space), and it keeps your head from falling forward. Voila. Sleeping soundly upright on a plane. Here're details of what worked for me: This is great for domestic flights where you can't recline (either because the seat doesn't actually recline, or because the space between seats is so tight that it's simply awful of you to recline and crush the person behind you.) I used it on two 13 hour Etihad flights. Those seats actually reclined, like you know how all airplane seats used to actually recline 30 years ago before they started trying to use flights as human-to-sardine converters. And this device works even more beautifully on seats that actually recline. The strap is long so you can configure it however you want- it works if you have it over your forehead, covering your eyes, or even down on your chin itself. It also can be attached by coming down over the top of the headrest, or coming up from below the headrest. It depends on your height. Shorter ppl might find attaching it from the top better. I found it better to put the strap in from the bottom of the headrest and then run it upwards so that the cushy part hangs over the top. (Should've taken a photo because that might make no sense without a visual.) Make sure you really lift off the headrest and get the strap secured in there otherwise it'll just keep slipping out. Don't worry- nobody's fingers ever go in those spaces so they're not icky or anything. The only downside to this is that once it's secured inside the headrest the adjustable part is inaccessible, so you have to adjust, insert, try, and repeat as many times as necessary to get the correct length for your comfort. For a 5+ hour flight spending 5 to 10 minutes getting it right is sooooo worth being able to sleep. It would be an improvement on the design if the adjustment buckles were closer to the front or closer to the cushy part. If your headrest has wings, you don't need a pillow if you make the strap tight enough. I used a regular generic u-shaped travel pillow positioned in front of my neck (not from the back because those pillows are always too fat behind my neck) and wrapping around the sides of my neck- that kept my head from moving sideways, and the strap kept my head upright. It's necessary to have side support with this thing (or with any pillow) so that your neck stays straight, but of course every other pillow in the market provides side support, and then you combine with this strap for the front support. The whole thing is soft and squishy and rolls up really tiny taking up maybe 3 inches of space or so, so bringing it along with your pillow is easy. I was really worried that I'd have to keep this strap really tight on my head for it to work, and I'd end up with a headache, but I kept the strap a little looser than I thought I'd need it, and the straps are stretchy so there's give, and I adjusted the length so that my head was able to move forward/backward maybe half an inch or so, and that's nowhere near enough for my head to "fall" or have any sudden movement, or to wake me up. And it was perfect- didn't squeeze my head or cause any discomfort. And the padded section is very thickly padded, so extra soft and extremely comfortable. The padded section is also very long so there was never any concern about my head ending up resting against the strap itself- the padding goes allll the way around front and sides of your head. Also, if you're sideways in the seat, leaning against the window, with your legs stretched out across the other 2 seats (which is pretty typical for passengers on emptier long haul flights), this strap works as well to keep your head against the seat, even though you're positioned sideways. After spending the 5 mins at the beginning finding the correct length i needed, the only issue I had was that I actually was able to sleep for hours, and comfortably on the plane ride, which meant I didn't get up and move around as much as I should have, so circulation became an issue. But really, that's only an issue because this device worked really well. This device - just a simple ordinary cushy strap - makes all those other complicated devices laughable. The simplest solution is always the best.
Title: Best airplane sleep
Content: This thing worked ! I bought it for an overnight flight to southeast asia and used it multiple times. I was able to just hook it over the adjustable headrest and honestly got close to 7/8 hours of sleep. Used a cheap neck pillow from Temu and my regular sleep mask, then this would just hold my head in place so I could sleep without being moved around. I ended up flipping it backwards because the texture left an imprint on my forehead, but the other side was velvety soft so no issues there. I looked ridiculous but who cares ? I was sleeping while my husband suffered on a redeye. Plus it is so small and easy to pack. Definitely keeping this and bringing it on all long flights from now on.
Title: No more bobble head! Sleep is awesome!
Content: Omg!! This is the best purchase ever! I can never sleep on a plane because my head is wobbling all around. Well not anymore. Just finished a 4 hour daytime flight and tried it out. I was so comfortable I was dozing off in the daytime! It took a minute to figure it out...I was worried when I looked at the Pics that I would have to wrap it around my seat and the person behind me would be mad...nope. The little headrest, curl the sides around and push the strap in behind it. Its a small little gap on Delta but it worked perfectly. You cant be looking all around because it really does hold your head in place. You can even put it across your eyes for light blackout. I am not dreading my 19 hour flight to Australia as much now. I do think I'd love to combine it with a neck pillow just for coziness. But if I had to pick one, you can defend sleep with this and no neck pillow. The little pouch is perfect. So easy to store, no origami project, and I used a caribeaner to hang it right on my backpack. Best ever!!!
Title: Tricky in tight spaces
Content: Overall, the seat sleeper was ok. Once I got it set up, it helped me sleep a bit and helped keep my neck from breaking on the plane. But, I found it challenging to get it set up on my airplane seat. My most recent trip, I flew American Airlines in the regular cabin and I was in the middle seat both flights. First, it was difficult to put it around the headrest while sitting (and I'm young and pretty flexible). Then, once I got it around my headrest, it was hard to get my head in it without the entire thing coming off the headrest. Maybe I was doing it wrong, but it was not easy to use. If you had someone with you to help you get it set up, maybe it could work better. But, if you're traveling alone, it might not work the best. Once I finally got it all set up and my head inside it, I thought it was really great and comfortable. I'm just not sure if I will use it again on an airplane. It's a fantastic idea and helped with sleeping upright, but its really hard to use.
Title: Game changer!
Content: My daughter first suggested this for us to get for our trip to Europe. We had a nine hour flight. I’ve tried the pillows before and I feel like my Neck is not supported. This eye mask connects to the back of the seat. I use this to keep the light out and keep my head from bobbing around. It worked very well and I got quite a few hours of sleep! Several people on the plane asked us where we bought this. I would definitely recommend it. It is easily adjustable for different head sizes. It also has two different sides that touch your face/eyes. There’s a soft side and then there is a fluffy side that is also soft.
Title: What am I doing wrong?
Content: I bought one for my husband and one for myself. I took them out of the packaging and I washed them Immediately before packing them in my carry-on. My husband had no interest in even trying to use it. I tried multiple times on our long flight overseas to get it to work and multiple times on the long flight home. And then I gave up. I could not get it to stay on the small adjustable head support. If I had put it completely around the headrest, it would’ve blocked the monitor screen for the person sitting behind me. If you are traveling in a car/bus/train/etc. that does not have seats like an airplane with monitors on the back of your headrest, I suppose it might be easier to use. But I could not figure out how to make it work.

Content: I've used this everytime I fly now, what a great simple invention, comfortable and stops that roll forward waking you up from sleep
Title: Works well
Content: Made sleep on the plane much more comfortable. I prefer to use this on my forehead in combination with a more substantial eye mask that leaves room for my eyelashes.
Title: Simple and works perfectly
Content: Tried every travel pillow.. inc all the weird shaped ones.. all have the same problem: they don't keep your head from falling forward, so you always wake up - and that sudden fall forward is what wakes you up, and you're usually in pain from having your neck bent forward. This simple device attaches to the front of the headrest (most planes have semi-detached headrests mounted to the front of the seat so you do not have to put the strap around the back of the seat itself into the person behind you's space), and it keeps your head from falling forward. Voila. Sleeping soundly upright on a plane. Here're details of what worked for me: This is great for domestic flights where you can't recline (either because the seat doesn't actually recline, or because the space between seats is so tight that it's simply awful of you to recline and crush the person behind you.) I used it on two 13 hour Etihad flights. Those seats actually reclined, like you know how all airplane seats used to actually recline 30 years ago before they started trying to use flights as human-to-sardine converters. And this device works even more beautifully on seats that actually recline. The strap is long so you can configure it however you want- it works if you have it over your forehead, covering your eyes, or even down on your chin itself. It also can be attached by coming down over the top of the headrest, or coming up from below the headrest. It depends on your height. Shorter ppl might find attaching it from the top better. I found it better to put the strap in from the bottom of the headrest and then run it upwards so that the cushy part hangs over the top. (Should've taken a photo because that might make no sense without a visual.) Make sure you really lift off the headrest and get the strap secured in there otherwise it'll just keep slipping out. Don't worry- nobody's fingers ever go in those spaces so they're not icky or anything. The only downside to this is that once it's secured inside the headrest the adjustable part is inaccessible, so you have to adjust, insert, try, and repeat as many times as necessary to get the correct length for your comfort. For a 5+ hour flight spending 5 to 10 minutes getting it right is sooooo worth being able to sleep. It would be an improvement on the design if the adjustment buckles were closer to the front or closer to the cushy part. If your headrest has wings, you don't need a pillow if you make the strap tight enough. I used a regular generic u-shaped travel pillow positioned in front of my neck (not from the back because those pillows are always too fat behind my neck) and wrapping around the sides of my neck- that kept my head from moving sideways, and the strap kept my head upright. It's necessary to have side support with this thing (or with any pillow) so that your neck stays straight, but of course every other pillow in the market provides side support, and then you combine with this strap for the front support. The whole thing is soft and squishy and rolls up really tiny taking up maybe 3 inches of space or so, so bringing it along with your pillow is easy. I was really worried that I'd have to keep this strap really tight on my head for it to work, and I'd end up with a headache, but I kept the strap a little looser than I thought I'd need it, and the straps are stretchy so there's give, and I adjusted the length so that my head was able to move forward/backward maybe half an inch or so, and that's nowhere near enough for my head to "fall" or have any sudden movement, or to wake me up. And it was perfect- didn't squeeze my head or cause any discomfort. And the padded section is very thickly padded, so extra soft and extremely comfortable. The padded section is also very long so there was never any concern about my head ending up resting against the strap itself- the padding goes allll the way around front and sides of your head. Also, if you're sideways in the seat, leaning against the window, with your legs stretched out across the other 2 seats (which is pretty typical for passengers on emptier long haul flights), this strap works as well to keep your head against the seat, even though you're positioned sideways. After spending the 5 mins at the beginning finding the correct length i needed, the only issue I had was that I actually was able to sleep for hours, and comfortably on the plane ride, which meant I didn't get up and move around as much as I should have, so circulation became an issue. But really, that's only an issue because this device worked really well. This device - just a simple ordinary cushy strap - makes all those other complicated devices laughable. The simplest solution is always the best.
Title: Best airplane sleep
Content: This thing worked ! I bought it for an overnight flight to southeast asia and used it multiple times. I was able to just hook it over the adjustable headrest and honestly got close to 7/8 hours of sleep. Used a cheap neck pillow from Temu and my regular sleep mask, then this would just hold my head in place so I could sleep without being moved around. I ended up flipping it backwards because the texture left an imprint on my forehead, but the other side was velvety soft so no issues there. I looked ridiculous but who cares ? I was sleeping while my husband suffered on a redeye. Plus it is so small and easy to pack. Definitely keeping this and bringing it on all long flights from now on.
Title: No more bobble head! Sleep is awesome!
Content: Omg!! This is the best purchase ever! I can never sleep on a plane because my head is wobbling all around. Well not anymore. Just finished a 4 hour daytime flight and tried it out. I was so comfortable I was dozing off in the daytime! It took a minute to figure it out...I was worried when I looked at the Pics that I would have to wrap it around my seat and the person behind me would be mad...nope. The little headrest, curl the sides around and push the strap in behind it. Its a small little gap on Delta but it worked perfectly. You cant be looking all around because it really does hold your head in place. You can even put it across your eyes for light blackout. I am not dreading my 19 hour flight to Australia as much now. I do think I'd love to combine it with a neck pillow just for coziness. But if I had to pick one, you can defend sleep with this and no neck pillow. The little pouch is perfect. So easy to store, no origami project, and I used a caribeaner to hang it right on my backpack. Best ever!!!
Title: Tricky in tight spaces
Content: Overall, the seat sleeper was ok. Once I got it set up, it helped me sleep a bit and helped keep my neck from breaking on the plane. But, I found it challenging to get it set up on my airplane seat. My most recent trip, I flew American Airlines in the regular cabin and I was in the middle seat both flights. First, it was difficult to put it around the headrest while sitting (and I'm young and pretty flexible). Then, once I got it around my headrest, it was hard to get my head in it without the entire thing coming off the headrest. Maybe I was doing it wrong, but it was not easy to use. If you had someone with you to help you get it set up, maybe it could work better. But, if you're traveling alone, it might not work the best. Once I finally got it all set up and my head inside it, I thought it was really great and comfortable. I'm just not sure if I will use it again on an airplane. It's a fantastic idea and helped with sleeping upright, but its really hard to use.
Title: Game changer!
Content: My daughter first suggested this for us to get for our trip to Europe. We had a nine hour flight. I’ve tried the pillows before and I feel like my Neck is not supported. This eye mask connects to the back of the seat. I use this to keep the light out and keep my head from bobbing around. It worked very well and I got quite a few hours of sleep! Several people on the plane asked us where we bought this. I would definitely recommend it. It is easily adjustable for different head sizes. It also has two different sides that touch your face/eyes. There’s a soft side and then there is a fluffy side that is also soft.
Title: What am I doing wrong?
Content: I bought one for my husband and one for myself. I took them out of the packaging and I washed them Immediately before packing them in my carry-on. My husband had no interest in even trying to use it. I tried multiple times on our long flight overseas to get it to work and multiple times on the long flight home. And then I gave up. I could not get it to stay on the small adjustable head support. If I had put it completely around the headrest, it would’ve blocked the monitor screen for the person sitting behind me. If you are traveling in a car/bus/train/etc. that does not have seats like an airplane with monitors on the back of your headrest, I suppose it might be easier to use. But I could not figure out how to make it work.

Content: Omg!! This is the best purchase ever! I can never sleep on a plane because my head is wobbling all around. Well not anymore. Just finished a 4 hour daytime flight and tried it out. I was so comfortable I was dozing off in the daytime! It took a minute to figure it out...I was worried when I looked at the Pics that I would have to wrap it around my seat and the person behind me would be mad...nope. The little headrest, curl the sides around and push the strap in behind it. Its a small little gap on Delta but it worked perfectly. You cant be looking all around because it really does hold your head in place. You can even put it across your eyes for light blackout. I am not dreading my 19 hour flight to Australia as much now. I do think I'd love to combine it with a neck pillow just for coziness. But if I had to pick one, you can defend sleep with this and no neck pillow. The little pouch is perfect. So easy to store, no origami project, and I used a caribeaner to hang it right on my backpack. Best ever!!!
Title: Tricky in tight spaces
Content: Overall, the seat sleeper was ok. Once I got it set up, it helped me sleep a bit and helped keep my neck from breaking on the plane. But, I found it challenging to get it set up on my airplane seat. My most recent trip, I flew American Airlines in the regular cabin and I was in the middle seat both flights. First, it was difficult to put it around the headrest while sitting (and I'm young and pretty flexible). Then, once I got it around my headrest, it was hard to get my head in it without the entire thing coming off the headrest. Maybe I was doing it wrong, but it was not easy to use. If you had someone with you to help you get it set up, maybe it could work better. But, if you're traveling alone, it might not work the best. Once I finally got it all set up and my head inside it, I thought it was really great and comfortable. I'm just not sure if I will use it again on an airplane. It's a fantastic idea and helped with sleeping upright, but its really hard to use.
Title: Game changer!
Content: My daughter first suggested this for us to get for our trip to Europe. We had a nine hour flight. I’ve tried the pillows before and I feel like my Neck is not supported. This eye mask connects to the back of the seat. I use this to keep the light out and keep my head from bobbing around. It worked very well and I got quite a few hours of sleep! Several people on the plane asked us where we bought this. I would definitely recommend it. It is easily adjustable for different head sizes. It also has two different sides that touch your face/eyes. There’s a soft side and then there is a fluffy side that is also soft.
Title: What am I doing wrong?
Content: I bought one for my husband and one for myself. I took them out of the packaging and I washed them Immediately before packing them in my carry-on. My husband had no interest in even trying to use it. I tried multiple times on our long flight overseas to get it to work and multiple times on the long flight home. And then I gave up. I could not get it to stay on the small adjustable head support. If I had put it completely around the headrest, it would’ve blocked the monitor screen for the person sitting behind me. If you are traveling in a car/bus/train/etc. that does not have seats like an airplane with monitors on the back of your headrest, I suppose it might be easier to use. But I could not figure out how to make it work.

Title: Simple and works perfectly
Content: Tried every travel pillow.. inc all the weird shaped ones.. all have the same problem: they don't keep your head from falling forward, so you always wake up - and that sudden fall forward is what wakes you up, and you're usually in pain from having your neck bent forward. This simple device attaches to the front of the headrest (most planes have semi-detached headrests mounted to the front of the seat so you do not have to put the strap around the back of the seat itself into the person behind you's space), and it keeps your head from falling forward. Voila. Sleeping soundly upright on a plane. Here're details of what worked for me: This is great for domestic flights where you can't recline (either because the seat doesn't actually recline, or because the space between seats is so tight that it's simply awful of you to recline and crush the person behind you.) I used it on two 13 hour Etihad flights. Those seats actually reclined, like you know how all airplane seats used to actually recline 30 years ago before they started trying to use flights as human-to-sardine converters. And this device works even more beautifully on seats that actually recline. The strap is long so you can configure it however you want- it works if you have it over your forehead, covering your eyes, or even down on your chin itself. It also can be attached by coming down over the top of the headrest, or coming up from below the headrest. It depends on your height. Shorter ppl might find attaching it from the top better. I found it better to put the strap in from the bottom of the headrest and then run it upwards so that the cushy part hangs over the top. (Should've taken a photo because that might make no sense without a visual.) Make sure you really lift off the headrest and get the strap secured in there otherwise it'll just keep slipping out. Don't worry- nobody's fingers ever go in those spaces so they're not icky or anything. The only downside to this is that once it's secured inside the headrest the adjustable part is inaccessible, so you have to adjust, insert, try, and repeat as many times as necessary to get the correct length for your comfort. For a 5+ hour flight spending 5 to 10 minutes getting it right is sooooo worth being able to sleep. It would be an improvement on the design if the adjustment buckles were closer to the front or closer to the cushy part. If your headrest has wings, you don't need a pillow if you make the strap tight enough. I used a regular generic u-shaped travel pillow positioned in front of my neck (not from the back because those pillows are always too fat behind my neck) and wrapping around the sides of my neck- that kept my head from moving sideways, and the strap kept my head upright. It's necessary to have side support with this thing (or with any pillow) so that your neck stays straight, but of course every other pillow in the market provides side support, and then you combine with this strap for the front support. The whole thing is soft and squishy and rolls up really tiny taking up maybe 3 inches of space or so, so bringing it along with your pillow is easy. I was really worried that I'd have to keep this strap really tight on my head for it to work, and I'd end up with a headache, but I kept the strap a little looser than I thought I'd need it, and the straps are stretchy so there's give, and I adjusted the length so that my head was able to move forward/backward maybe half an inch or so, and that's nowhere near enough for my head to "fall" or have any sudden movement, or to wake me up. And it was perfect- didn't squeeze my head or cause any discomfort. And the padded section is very thickly padded, so extra soft and extremely comfortable. The padded section is also very long so there was never any concern about my head ending up resting against the strap itself- the padding goes allll the way around front and sides of your head. Also, if you're sideways in the seat, leaning against the window, with your legs stretched out across the other 2 seats (which is pretty typical for passengers on emptier long haul flights), this strap works as well to keep your head against the seat, even though you're positioned sideways. After spending the 5 mins at the beginning finding the correct length i needed, the only issue I had was that I actually was able to sleep for hours, and comfortably on the plane ride, which meant I didn't get up and move around as much as I should have, so circulation became an issue. But really, that's only an issue because this device worked really well. This device - just a simple ordinary cushy strap - makes all those other complicated devices laughable. The simplest solution is always the best.
Title: Best airplane sleep
Content: This thing worked ! I bought it for an overnight flight to southeast asia and used it multiple times. I was able to just hook it over the adjustable headrest and honestly got close to 7/8 hours of sleep. Used a cheap neck pillow from Temu and my regular sleep mask, then this would just hold my head in place so I could sleep without being moved around. I ended up flipping it backwards because the texture left an imprint on my forehead, but the other side was velvety soft so no issues there. I looked ridiculous but who cares ? I was sleeping while my husband suffered on a redeye. Plus it is so small and easy to pack. Definitely keeping this and bringing it on all long flights from now on.

I found it better to put the strap in from the bottom of the headrest and then run it upwards so that the cushy part hangs over the top. (Should've taken a photo because that might make no sense without a visual.) Make sure you really lift off the headrest and get the strap secured in there otherwise it'll just keep slipping out. Don't worry- nobody's fingers ever go in those spaces so they're not icky or anything. The only downside to this is that once it's secured inside the headrest the adjustable part is inaccessible, so you have to adjust, insert, try, and repeat as many times as necessary to get the correct length for your comfort. For a 5+ hour flight spending 5 to 10 minutes getting it right is sooooo worth being able to sleep. It would be an improvement on the design if the adjustment buckles were closer to the front or closer to the cushy part. If your headrest has wings, you don't need a pillow if you make the strap tight enough. I used a regular generic u-shaped travel pillow positioned in front of my neck (not from the back because those pillows are always too fat behind my neck) and wrapping around the sides of my neck- that kept my head from moving sideways, and the strap kept my head upright. It's necessary to have side support with this thing (or with any pillow) so that your neck stays straight, but of course every other pillow in the market provides side support, and then you combine with this strap for the front support. The whole thing is soft and squishy and rolls up really tiny taking up maybe 3 inches of space or so, so bringing it along with your pillow is easy. I was really worried that I'd have to keep this strap really tight on my head for it to work, and I'd end up with a headache, but I kept the strap a little looser than I thought I'd need it, and the straps are stretchy so there's give, and I adjusted the length so that my head was able to move forward/backward maybe half an inch or so, and that's nowhere near enough for my head to "fall" or have any sudden movement, or to wake me up. And it was perfect- didn't squeeze my head or cause any discomfort. And the padded section is very thickly padded, so extra soft and extremely comfortable. The padded section is also very long so there was never any concern about my head ending up resting against the strap itself- the padding goes allll the way around front and sides of your head. Also, if you're sideways in the seat, leaning against the window, with your legs stretched out across the other 2 seats (which is pretty typical for passengers on emptier long haul flights), this strap works as well to keep your head against the seat, even though you're positioned sideways. After spending the 5 mins at the beginning finding the correct length i needed, the only issue I had was that I actually was able to sleep for hours, and comfortably on the plane ride, which meant I didn't get up and move around as much as I should have, so circulation became an issue. But really, that's only an issue because this device worked really well. This device - just a simple ordinary cushy strap - makes all those other complicated devices laughable. The simplest solution is always the best.
Title: Best airplane sleep
Content: This thing worked ! I bought it for an overnight flight to southeast asia and used it multiple times. I was able to just hook it over the adjustable headrest and honestly got close to 7/8 hours of sleep. Used a cheap neck pillow from Temu and my regular sleep mask, then this would just hold my head in place so I could sleep without being moved around. I ended up flipping it backwards because the texture left an imprint on my forehead, but the other side was velvety soft so no issues there. I looked ridiculous but who cares ? I was sleeping while my husband suffered on a redeye. Plus it is so small and easy to pack. Definitely keeping this and bringing it on all long flights from now on.
Title: No more bobble head! Sleep is awesome!
Content: Omg!! This is the best purchase ever! I can never sleep on a plane because my head is wobbling all around. Well not anymore. Just finished a 4 hour daytime flight and tried it out. I was so comfortable I was dozing off in the daytime! It took a minute to figure it out...I was worried when I looked at the Pics that I would have to wrap it around my seat and the person behind me would be mad...nope. The little headrest, curl the sides around and push the strap in behind it. Its a small little gap on Delta but it worked perfectly. You cant be looking all around because it really does hold your head in place. You can even put it across your eyes for light blackout. I am not dreading my 19 hour flight to Australia as much now. I do think I'd love to combine it with a neck pillow just for coziness. But if I had to pick one, you can defend sleep with this and no neck pillow. The little pouch is perfect. So easy to store, no origami project, and I used a caribeaner to hang it right on my backpack. Best ever!!!
Title: Tricky in tight spaces
Content: Overall, the seat sleeper was ok. Once I got it set up, it helped me sleep a bit and helped keep my neck from breaking on the plane. But, I found it challenging to get it set up on my airplane seat. My most recent trip, I flew American Airlines in the regular cabin and I was in the middle seat both flights. First, it was difficult to put it around the headrest while sitting (and I'm young and pretty flexible). Then, once I got it around my headrest, it was hard to get my head in it without the entire thing coming off the headrest. Maybe I was doing it wrong, but it was not easy to use. If you had someone with you to help you get it set up, maybe it could work better. But, if you're traveling alone, it might not work the best. Once I finally got it all set up and my head inside it, I thought it was really great and comfortable. I'm just not sure if I will use it again on an airplane. It's a fantastic idea and helped with sleeping upright, but its really hard to use.
Title: Game changer!
Content: My daughter first suggested this for us to get for our trip to Europe. We had a nine hour flight. I’ve tried the pillows before and I feel like my Neck is not supported. This eye mask connects to the back of the seat. I use this to keep the light out and keep my head from bobbing around. It worked very well and I got quite a few hours of sleep! Several people on the plane asked us where we bought this. I would definitely recommend it. It is easily adjustable for different head sizes. It also has two different sides that touch your face/eyes. There’s a soft side and then there is a fluffy side that is also soft.
Title: What am I doing wrong?
Content: I bought one for my husband and one for myself. I took them out of the packaging and I washed them Immediately before packing them in my carry-on. My husband had no interest in even trying to use it. I tried multiple times on our long flight overseas to get it to work and multiple times on the long flight home. And then I gave up. I could not get it to stay on the small adjustable head support. If I had put it completely around the headrest, it would’ve blocked the monitor screen for the person sitting behind me. If you are traveling in a car/bus/train/etc. that does not have seats like an airplane with monitors on the back of your headrest, I suppose it might be easier to use. But I could not figure out how to make it work.
Title: Great
Content: Works
Title: Comfort
Content: Not had chance to use this yet but hopefully it will be good to use on long flights
Title: A great travelling aid for flying
Content: I've used this everytime I fly now, what a great simple invention, comfortable and stops that roll forward waking you up from sleep
Title: Works well
Content: Made sleep on the plane much more comfortable. I prefer to use this on my forehead in combination with a more substantial eye mask that leaves room for my eyelashes.
Title: Simple and works perfectly
Content: Tried every travel pillow.. inc all the weird shaped ones.. all have the same problem: they don't keep your head from falling forward, so you always wake up - and that sudden fall forward is what wakes you up, and you're usually in pain from having your neck bent forward. This simple device attaches to the front of the headrest (most planes have semi-detached headrests mounted to the front of the seat so you do not have to put the strap around the back of the seat itself into the person behind you's space), and it keeps your head from falling forward. Voila. Sleeping soundly upright on a plane. Here're details of what worked for me: This is great for domestic flights where you can't recline (either because the seat doesn't actually recline, or because the space between seats is so tight that it's simply awful of you to recline and crush the person behind you.) I used it on two 13 hour Etihad flights. Those seats actually reclined, like you know how all airplane seats used to actually recline 30 years ago before they started trying to use flights as human-to-sardine converters. And this device works even more beautifully on seats that actually recline. The strap is long so you can configure it however you want- it works if you have it over your forehead, covering your eyes, or even down on your chin itself. It also can be attached by coming down over the top of the headrest, or coming up from below the headrest. It depends on your height. Shorter ppl might find attaching it from the top better.
