Spring sleepiness, summer fatigue, autumn naps, and winter hibernation, people cannot do without sleep 24 hours a day throughout the year. However, not everyone can have a good sleeping experience - during lunch break in the office, I want to take a nap, but without a pillow, my neck is prone to stiff neck and my hands are easily numb; when I am on a business trip, traveling by plane or train, I want to take a nap, but my head cannot be comfortably placed, and sometimes I drool when I fall asleep without feeling...
You may ask, why not use a U-shaped pillow? But a good neck pillow is really hard to come by! Either the front end is empty and cannot really fit the neck, and it cannot be supported at all, so there is no difference between wearing it and not wearing it; or the U-shaped pillow is too hard, and it often squeezes the neck when leaning against the chair back, and wearing it makes the neck more uncomfortable.
The core mission of the U-shaped pillow is to protect the cervical spine and relieve the pressure on the cervical spine, but not all U-shaped pillows can complete its "mission". To put it simply, many headrests that look like U-shaped pillows cannot play the role that a U-shaped pillow should play.
So, how should you choose a U-shaped pillow that suits you? Let's take a look at how to choose a U-shaped pillow!
First, choose the internal filling material. The internal filling material determines the support of the pillow.
Air filling is the most basic model. The biggest advantage is that it is easy to carry, but the disadvantage is that the inflation process is laborious. In addition, the inflatable pillow is not breathable, and friends who sweat a lot probably won't like it; granular and tubular fillings, the fillings are light, breathable, and easy to clean, but the support is much weaker; memory foam U-shaped pillows have strong support, are soft and comfortable, and can fit different neck shapes. Although they are breathable and moisture-absorbent, they are difficult to clean, and they are large in size and difficult to fold and store.
Of course, the latex pillow is currently widely recognized by consumers. Its internal filling is a natural latex core, which is gentle and skin-friendly, antibacterial and anti-mite, super elastic, and full of support.
Secondly, it is the pillow fabric. If the filling determines 80% of the sleeping experience, then the remaining 20% depends on the texture of the pillowcase. After all, this is the material that directly contacts the neck and even the cheek, so it cannot be neglected!
Traditional pure cotton fabrics, soft flannel, durable nylon, and some special fabrics developed independently, everyone can choose according to their preferences!
