Hi guys,
I've got a bald head and got some minor sunburns during my last dives in sunny regions. Therefore, I ordered several dive hoods for my next trip to find a fitting one.
My problem is: all size L hoods are too tight and feel uncomfortable. Even after a couple of minutes it feels like I'll get a headache.XL hoods feel good and fit easily - maybe too easily? While the diving hood closes well on my face and lies gently on my ears, it is very loose on my neck and even leaves some space above my skullcap.
What are the disadvantages of slightly too loose hoods? Will air get trapped inside and make my head float?If it matters: The material for the hood I would like to keep is 90 % Neoprene and 10 % Nylon
I'm glad for any advice / tips
Thanks!
Edit: Thank you very much for your answers, guys!
