I sliced a memory foam pillow to half thickness with a single edge razor and put it in the same case as a firm pillow. It’s stiff as fuck for the first week or 2, but hoo boy is it the best pillow I’ve ever had. My wife kept stealing my pillow, so she got the other half of the foam pillow
You gotta game the system man. One big good pillow and one lil bitch pillow. You will sleep like a king
I have a single oversized pillow, it’s the best.
I suffered for so long and then finally caved and bought a custom-fit pillow for side sleeping. Literally had to go to a physio to measure the space between my neck and the end of my shoulder. It was some of the best $200 I have ever spent, I cannot recommend it enough.
What does a pillow like that look like? Got a pic?
It’s one of these bad boys. Mine is specifically for side sleeping but they have back sleeper ones too.
My problem is I sleep on all sides at any given moment. Never finding true comfort
Weed gummies help with that
Eh not exactly
What if you do both?
I’m not super sure but I think they just give you a different size that’s better fitted for in between. Mine is just a tad bit too tall if I sleep on my back, but I had requested a side sleeper only.
How back sleeper pillow differ?
There is more space between your head and the ground when you are on your side
On your back you want a gradual increase in height from your shoulders up
I too wish for the secret knowledge
wdym two is perfect
That’s why you don’t buy all your pillows from the same supplier.
Fking hell, I knew it!
I use three like a fucking king
Rookie numbers! I unironically use 7 pillows. 3 for the head, 1 for my back (so I can sleep on my side and lean against the wall), 1 between my legs, and 2 to sandwich my feet into.
Holy shit, after years of trying to convince my wife to join Reddit it turns out you were here on Lemmy all along.
3 is a king, 7 is a fucking deity
When I stay in a hotel I take all four pillows and make use of them. I should steal the guest room pillows at home.
I figured it out. I bought a fancy $100 pillow that a certain hotel uses which is fucking bliss. Underneath that I have the flattest most useless “idea” of a pillow I’ve had for years. Combined it is the perfect amount of pillow. I can’t recommend enough purchasing a high quality pillow though, it’s a game changer for real.
$100 for a pillow? hell naw
Buy once cry once
What’s your pillow brand?
I have a big ass square pillow that I can fold over at my own leasure
Where do I uh… I mean what would you call uh… can I just…
What I need is a pillow that is very soft and conformal on the bottom, with a kind of rigid foamy part on top. I sleep on my side with my arm under my head and I need a pillow that molds to my arm but keeps it separate from my head so I don’t pinch my sclipula.
Buy a blowup doll and inflate it juuuuust right.
“ my opponent has gone too far!”
“ my opponent hasn’t gone too far enough!”
Damned 5 cent titanium taxes.
I have a scaleable pillow that you can put more or less layers into. :D
I have a feather pillow that completely collapses under the weight of my head. I guess I just need the essence of a pillow.
That type is ideal for back sleepers!
Almost as if people arent identical copies of each other and have their own requirements :D
more or less layers
for me its usually less too tho
I read a story that once the US air force tried designing a pilot seat based on the average of the measurements of all their pilots and ended with something that was uncomfortable to all of them.
Also, memory foam pillows.
Never using anything else.
Do you have a link? Regular pillows are too thick for my head when lying on my back and it hurts my neck. I instead use a folded blanket so I can customize the thickness.
Found it, buts its a german only site that only ships to a few european countries. https://www.dormabell.de/produkte/kopfkissen_dormabell-active
I got the 40x80cm “nature” version which is merino wool, but they also got fiber and down versions with the same concept. Im sure there are other companies with similar products.
Thanks!
Its was a smallish local german producer iirc and its sheeps wool based. I can check later tho, maybe they have an online shop.
Shredded foam, pretty much any kind, with a zippered end for adjusting. Toss it in the dryer on cool for 10m when it loses it’s floof.
This is the answer. Shredded memory foam 4 lyfe
The real play is to get a soft fluffy pillow that you can adjust by moving the fluff around. I can virtually flatten it if my neck is bugging me, or stuff a bunch in one side for side sleeping. Mine is a sealy and I don’t think I’ll use a different brand again.
They got 2 packs at Costco.
