- DESIGNED WITH YOU IN MIND. Designed especially for wheelchair users who rely on their headrest for support some or all of the time. When your head rests on your wheelchair’s headrest, it can cause friction — which often leads to discomfort and hair loss. The GlideWear Headrest Cover protects your head and scalp from damage-causing friction.
- GET LASTING PROTECTION from hair loss, scalp damage, pain, irritation, abrasion, skin breakdown, and discomfort caused by friction between your head and your wheelchair’s headrest.
- COMFORT AND QUALITY. Silk-like, breathable fabric prevents moisture and heat buildup against the head. Patented technology reduces friction and protects scalp and hair. Made with pride in the USA from 5% nylon / 15% spandex (latex-free).
- DURABLE AND MACHINE WASHABLE. High-quality GlideWear Headrest Covers are made in the USA — and made to last. They are easy to care for. Just toss them in the wash with your other laundry.
- FITS MOST HEADRESTS. Two size options available to fit most 8″ and 10″ headrest models (Comfort Company, Stealth, Ottobock, Whitmyer Biomechanix). Large size measures 10 inches x 6 inches. Small size measures 8 inches x 6 inches.
