If you're looking for a cap that will hold pretty long hair, this might be the one for you. I found it spacious enough for mine (lots of below-shoulder hair), but it does NOT keep the water out. My hair wasn't as soaked as if I hadn't worn anything, but it was fairly wet, not just damp. I'd like to find one for long hair that has the ribs on the inside edges, which seem to keep out water better (like windshield wiper blades), but haven't found any in a cap that's large enough for my volume of hair.

I have long hair down to my waist and this cap fits me great. I ordered two other speedo caps that don't fit any of us here - long hair or no, and they seem too small so I'm wondering if they are defects. This one fits perfect, keeps my hair dry, and I have very long hair. If chlorine ruins your hair, get this.

It's been years since I wore a swim cap, but I'm pleased with this one. The edges of my hair get wet, but not the bulk of it, which I put up in a ponytail and then cover with the cap. Doesn't pull my hair.

I have mid-back-length hair that is very thick, and most swim caps just pop off my head. This one actually covers my entire head, forehead to nape (including ears) and has plenty of room for my hair.

It stayed on during my whole workout in the pool, and it's easy to put on and take off. Since there's no elastic band (like lycra caps have), it didn't leave a red line on my forehead. Basically, it's everything I'd want in a swim cap.

Some reviewers are interested in whether it keeps your hair dry, and the answer is that it mostly keeps water off your hair (I use a swim cap to avoid chlorine damage) but I wouldn't trust anything short of a magical force field to keep hair totally dry.

I really didn't think I could get a swim cap that kept my hair dry but this cap changed my mind! This cap keeps all my shoulder length hair dry. It is easy to put on and doesn't pull my hair in the process. The outside of the cap dries very quickly so it never goes into my gym bag wet. It is very durable and I do not worry about ripping it while putting it on or taking it off. It is a great cap at a great price.

I have very long and thick dreadlocks and could never find a swimcap that fits; this one is perfect. Covers all of my hair, isn't tight or uncomfortable and keeps the water out

Based on other reviews i was not expecting this to be waterproof, but if put on right it does keep most of my hair dry and more importantly my ears dry! I was even planning to buy ear-plugs ..good thing i decided to try out the cap first. No issues putting it on and does not feel too tight either.

I bought this for my wife, who is a casual swimmer. She has long hair, about to her lower back, and between the two of us we just couldn't get this swim cap to fit over her long hair; it was just too small. Perhaps by "Longer hair" they mean shoulder length hair. We were both disappointed.

I've been on the lookout for a good cap that offered better coverage for my medium length, thick hair. This really isn't it. It works as well as the average size, which is to say that it keeps about 75% of my hair dry. I'm not sure what qualifies this cap as "long hair" specific. Feels like it's on snugly, but doesn't do the job. I'm using it until I find something better.

I was really surprised by this head cap. I wear my hair in locks and was really skeptical about whether this would be able to accommodate my hair especially when they are up. I stayed about 2 hours in the ocean and at least 90% of my hair was dry. It started slipping off in the front and my hair line got wet but that was it. I will order another one as back up.
