Why use a sauna cap? Many sauna bathers ask themselves this question. A sauna cap protects the hair from drying out, keeps the head cool in the heat of the sauna and makes your sauna experience more pleasant. Here we explain why it is an important part of the sauna ritual.
A sauna cap is a hat made of wool, linen or other natural materials that is used in the sauna to protect the head and hair from overheating. When the temperature rises in the sauna, the head is the most exposed area. With a sauna cap, you can maintain a more even body temperature and stay in the sauna longer without discomfort.
