Prince Hair Company Fit Guide

Find Your Best Fit

Choose by hair length and fullness—not guesswork. The right bonnet should feel secure, comfortable, and roomy enough for your style.

Start with your hair, not only your head size. Our adjustable ties help customize the fit around your head. Your bonnet size determines how much room your hair has inside the cap.

Small

Cap measurement: approximately 32–33.5 cm

Best for shoulder-length or shorter hair and styles that sit closer to the head.

  • Short curls, bobs and silk presses
  • Cornrows and low-volume protective styles
  • Fine to medium hair density
  • Anyone who prefers less extra room in the cap

Large

Cap measurement: approximately 38.5–40 cm

Best for thicker, fuller or longer hair that needs more room without being compressed.

  • Thick curls and high-density natural hair
  • Shoulder to mid-back hair
  • Braids, twists, locs and rollers
  • Full styles that need comfortable volume

Long

Designed for extended protective styles

Best for braids, twists or locs that extend from mid-back toward the waist.

  • Long box braids and knotless braids
  • Long locs and twists
  • Styles that bunch inside a standard bonnet
  • Length protection with less folding and stuffing

Choose the fit that feels like you

Original Stretch Tie

Best when you want the most control over snugness. Soft stretch ties let you adjust the tension instead of relying on a tight elastic band.

Adjustable No-Tie

Best when you prefer a secure fit without tying. The adjustable wide band can also be easier to position around other nighttime headwear.

Ruffle Bonnet

Best when you prefer a classic slip-on style with a soft ruffle band and no ties to adjust.

Long Bonnet

Best when you need room for length rather than added width. It helps long protective styles lie more naturally overnight.

How your bonnet should fit

  • The band rests comfortably along your hairline without painful pressure.
  • Your hair fits fully inside without being tightly packed or flattened.
  • The ties feel secure, but you do not need to pull them as tight as possible.
  • The bonnet stays in place while still feeling comfortable at your temples and edges.

Fit questions, answered

Will a Large bonnet stay on better?

Not necessarily. The ties control how securely the bonnet fits around your head. The cap size controls how much room your hair has inside.

Which size should I choose for braids?

Choose Large for shorter or medium-length braids. Choose Long when your braids extend from mid-back toward the waist or feel crowded in a standard cap.

I have short but very thick hair. Which size is best?

Large is usually the better choice when fullness or density requires more room, even when your hair is not especially long.

Should I tie the stretch ties very tightly?

No. Adjust them only until the bonnet feels comfortably secure. Overtightening can create unnecessary pressure around the hairline and temples.
