Your Questions, Answered:

What can I wear to keep my head warm at night after losing my hair?
A soft sleep cap like the Ocean Merino. A bare head gets cold quickly at night and the chills can wake you. The Ocean Merino keeps you warm and snug without being heavy, so it is gentle enough to sleep in every night.

What is the best sleep cap for a sensitive scalp?
Something soft and breathable, with no tight seams and no elastic band. That is how the Ocean Merino is made, so there is nothing pressing or rubbing where your scalp feels tender.

Do people wear caps to sleep in during hair loss?
Yes, lots of women do. A cap keeps a bare head warm, soothes a sensitive scalp against the pillow and helps you feel less naked at night.

Is merino wool good for a sensitive scalp?
Yes, merino wool is naturally soft, breathable and odour resistant, which makes it gentle on a sensitive scalp. The Ocean Merino keeps you warm at night without the itch you get from coarser wool.

Is headwear subsidised in NZ?
Yes. Kaus is a Ministry of Health / Te Whatu Ora approved supplier, so if you qualify for the hair loss subsidy we can claim on your behalf. Easy as that.
