Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 When Grady recieved his Hanger Cranial Band the fit seemed to be great but Grady had chaffing on his forehead so we had to take the helmet off for a while. When his face looked better I put the band back on and it did it again, we tried to baby powder and all that stuff but nothing worked until we finally realized that whatever the band is made out of might be too harsh for his skin so I cut a T-Shirt to fit the inside front of the band. IT WORKED... Well, when I called Hanger they had been checking all different ways to help this problem but when I told them what I had done they said it was a great idea and they ordered Shear Ban. This was cut and pasted inside of Grady's helmet and it is made of a smoother material. He has had this on now for 3 weeks and is doing great. So, Hanger Band parents... ASK FOR SHEAR BAN... Why this is not put on it in the first place, I do not know. Grady 7 months-Brachio-Hanger Band 6 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I agree! At Cranial Tech, it's called mole skin and it's like magic! I think the reason they don't make it standard its that it's sticky on the back and that would make for a mess when shaving the inside - and it has to be replaced each visit and can't be cleaned with alcohol.Everyone should know about this option though - thanks for sharing!
