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.
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.
Holy shit, after years of trying to convince my wife to join Reddit it turns out you were here on Lemmy all along.
“ 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
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!
I have a feather pillow that completely collapses under the weight of my head. I guess I just need the essence of a pillow.
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.
That type is ideal for back sleepers!
Also, memory foam pillows.
Never using anything else.
I found out that those boxy memory foam pillows under a fairly flat “normal” pillow is basically perfect for me
2 pillow connoisseur here, it’s not perfect but it’s def better than being a 1 pillow andy.
You just need the right pillow. Personally i find couch throw pillows to be way better than bed pillows
Ew. I’ve never met a couch throw pillow I’d allow in my bed.
It’s the same thing as a bed pillow, just feels slightly different
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?
Replace bed with hammock, no need for pillow
Even in a hammock I use a very small camping pillow - the Snoozy from Wise Owl - but I sleep on my side, I can’t fall asleep on my back. When I first tried hammock camping I was up almost 72 hrs straight trying to fall asleep on my back. But I just curl up my legs and sleep like a baby now.
I use a “cube” memory foam pillow with a cooling side. It’s the best thing I’ve ever bought
pillows are perfect, and I’m tired of people complaining about them!
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
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?
I too wish for the secret knowledge
It’s one of these bad boys. Mine is specifically for side sleeping but they have back sleeper ones too.
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.
Why does that cost so much? It’s just a different shape it can’t cost that much more to make than a normal pillow lol
The material is significantly better than other memory foam pillows of similar shape that I’ve had, but I suspect part of it is the gimmick too of like a medically approved custom sized pillow. I’ve had it for about a year now though and unlike other memory foam ones I’ve had, it’s kept its shape very well and is still as comfortable as when I first got it.
My problem is I sleep on all sides at any given moment. Never finding true comfort
Weed gummies help with that
Eh not exactly
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 use a regular pillow and a body pillow
My body is the pillow.
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…
That’s why you don’t buy all your pillows from the same supplier.
Fking hell, I knew it!
