### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by 5***N on 14 July 2019*

I spent 7 days snorkeling in the South Pacific. The water temperature was 82, but the sun was intense. This good provided excellent UV protection without any effect on my body temperature. It was comfortable, especially keeping my very long hair from tangling with my mask. I love it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***N on 9 April 2023*

I have an extra large head and it works really well. The flared out base stays underneath my rash guard easily and definitely protects my head from torching sun and jellyfish among other seaweed and garbage floating on the surface of the water. Definitely worth the money and good quality stitching. You don't need sunscreen wearing this hood.
