Shower Cap : Help Please !

Post by northernbloke »

Hi All

I would like to buy my first Shower cap to play with. But after a long time making my mind up I ordered a pack of 3 which LOOKED nice and thick and seemed to be made of PVC like a rain mac would be. I was disgusted when they arrived from CHINA !! They were thinner than plastic shopping bags and were total rubbish !

It seems difficult looking on the net, to make out which shower caps are made of Nylon (yuk) and which are made of the thicker PVC ? As I say I am looking for the type that are made with that nice PVC that ladies PVC Rainmacs are made of..the sort which give off that lovely warm PVC aroma.

Can anyone IN THE UK, please tell me where I could buy one from ? Ideally I would prefer Amazon as a supplier but I cant seem to find the sort I want on there. I dont have paypal and dont want it, so ebay is a no-go area. And I certainly dont want to order one from CHINA again..lol.

Can anyone help ?

Thanks
Derek

pvc-u-like.com are the only ones I can think of. I'm sure they can take debit or credit cards. I have ordered 2 from them and they make 2 different sizes.

Totally agree with Raincoatboy. Go to PVC-U-LIKE for best quality. Not the cheapest but you will save money not buying rubbish that only gets thrown away. I am guessing the chinese shower caps are the sort they give away free in hotels. Also please support small businesses that care and stop making Jeff Bezzos an even bigger trillionaire by treating his workers like shite and replacing them with robots wherever he can.

The ones we use on PVC Dreams shoots all come from pvc-u-like and they are made from 'raincoat' pvc rather than the thin diaposable polythene ones. As raincoatboy says they do a regular size and an extra large size - also you can choose what material you want.

Hi Jellyman and PVC Dreams

Thank you both for your help. Yes..exactly as you said, the Chinese ones were like a thin polythene throw away shower cap...rubbish !

Will check out PVC U like as its exactly as you say..the material I am looking for is the same as the PVC Mac material..nice and smelly !

Thanks Again
