Using this bizarre sleeping hood probably feels like sleeping with your head in a paper bag. From Mitsubishi Paper Mills Ltd., the Dome sleep hood is designed to work like a sleep mask, except instead of just covering your eyes, it engulfs your entire face. The pouch like structure is fairly simplistic, like a soft paper pita to fit your head in.The open slit at the bottom would allow for air to get in and out, as would the puckered area near the nose.
The non-woven fabric's paper bag effect makes the product perfect for sleeping in public. If you plan on getting on a long flight or could face lengthy delays or layovers while in transit, the sleeping hood could be worth investing in. The printed designs also help make you look good, while you could be drooling in dreamland.
