Graduation day is supposed to be exciting — not stressful. But for anyone with curls, coils, braids, or locs, the traditional graduation cap can be a real struggle. If you’ve ever tried to make pull a graduation cap over natural hair, you know the frustration is real. 🎓
At C.A.P Creations, we created Grad Cap Remix® to fix that. It’s the first headband insert designed to make your graduation cap actually fit — without crushing your curls, messing up your style, or sitting awkwardly on top of your head.
Why Graduation Caps Don’t Fit Natural Hair
The traditional cap design hasn’t changed in decades. It’s built to fit flat hair — not the texture, volume, and beauty of natural styles. When you add braids, twists, or a silk press, pulling the cap around your head just doesn’t work. The result? Tightness, slipping, or worse… flattening your style before you even walk the stage.
