As a combination back- and side-sleeper, I’ve been considering trying to strap foam blocks to the side of my head so I can always get the right amount of support regardless of position.
Exactly what I’m looking for! I’ld like back sleeping but with a slightly tilted, side supported head. Lean head all the way = neck pain. Head straight = can’t fall asleep. I’ve tried stuff with backsleeping+ side support for leaning the head, but the extra pillow on the head side isn’t strong enough (doesn’t last) and it all gets too hot around the head.
This fails to mention how he made it so that the side you’re laying on is never the cool side.
I don’t get how people use so many pillows. I like a single, somewhat flat pillow. Anything too fluffy or more than one pillow is just way too tall and would make my neck bend. Do you multi-pillow people sleep partially sitting up or something? I sleep on my side or stomach.
You sleep on your side and stomach and use the same amount of pillow for both?? Stomach definitely needs the least amount of cushion, except for people who use no pillow I guess. And side sleeping has an entire shoulder’s width of support to make up for. Totally different positions, you need an arsenal of pillows to really dial in the ergonomics.
I sleep on my side and a thin pillow would make my head bend down. I need a thick pillow for my neck to be straight. Shredded memory foam gang whazzup
Side sleep, I want neutral neck angle
Sometimes i do as it helps with my hearburn
Me with three pillows just for my neck anyway:

I have two pillows stuffed in one pillowcase. Double pillow. 2-in1 comfort and self defense.
I just wonder how they make one side colder than the other.
Idk man, I just have a good pillow that’s big AF so that when I’m sideways it fits well and when I look up it compresses.
If you need more space maybe buy a bigger or a sturdier one (so you compress it less)
Replace “inventor” with “Hilton” and you have a home run

Buckwheat pillow, holds it’s shape well and you can flatten it out or bring it back together to adjust the thickness, big downside though you kind of have to mold your head into it when you go to bed, really just boils down to adjusting the thickness, laying on it, and rocking your head back and forth on it a couple times to shape it. They dont fold well but I feel they don’t need to.
1 pillow for your head, 1 pillow for your chest. Perfect sleep.
I make a nice gentle curved slope with three pillows. Layering them offset to each other, with the back one being both the thickest and close to being vertical and the front one, also the thinnest being closer to horizontal.
My head probably isn’t even over the first pillow, but it allows the getting two to be at a more comfy angle.
I got one of those Purple Pillows. Felt like an ass spending $100 on a pillow, but I was flush and my neck hurt.
It’s great on the bottom and seems like it’ll last the rest of my life. Doesn’t crush or absorb smells, water hose will clean it off.
OTOH, it’s too low for a single pillow, but I still dig it.
I’m fascinated as to why “not absorbing smells” and the ability to be hosed down were major selling points to you.
LOL, ya got me.
Seriously, washing pillows often jacks them up into scrunched up balls. Also, ever smelled a pillow after it gets old? Not much you can do to renew it. A rubber pillow isn’t going to have issues like cloth. Just change the pillow case regularly.
Years ago my husband bought a random pillow from Amazon. I liked it so much I also bought one, but I guess it was a different manufacturer and I hated it. He’s not fussy so we swapped, and I swear to god this is the best pillow I’ve ever used. It was like $23 and the link is broken now.
