Sexy Showercaps

Ignoring firstly the mixed metaphor that is the title of this post, let me begin by singing the praises of showercaps.

Yeah, they don't look too nice, it's true, but they are really handy for a few reasons. And they come in all sorts of types and varieties, from the clingfilm freebies you get in hotels, right up to glamorous ribbon-bedecked satin affairs for lounging ladies, thus satisfying the accessory whore in me.

Now, what applications can we possibly put shower caps to?

In the shower
Yup, the reason for which they were invented - protecting your hair from water and suds as you shower. I tend to find them to be fairly ineffective in this regard. A design flaw?

For deep conditioning treatments
This is what I use my own personal Shrek shower cap for. It's green, and it has little Shrek ears on it. It's also deeply attractive and adds to my feminine allure approximately 145%. It is great in one regard though - I slather on conditioner, fix my Shrek-cap on top and let it all cook away for an hour or two. It works!

For luxurious bathing
For this, our Shrek and clingfilm friends just will not do. I recommend you get yourself a Bombay Duck or Benefit Bathina Bathing Cap, as seen to the left. It actually would be a shame to get these beauties wet, they're gorgeous, particularly Bathina. I'm hoping that someone (i.e. my boyfriend) reads this and gets it for me for Christmas.
