    I sliced a memory foam pillow to half thickness with a single edge razor and put it in the same case as a firm pillow. It’s stiff as fuck for the first week or 2, but hoo boy is it the best pillow I’ve ever had. My wife kept stealing my pillow, so she got the other half of the foam pillow

    I have a single oversized pillow, it’s the best.

    You gotta game the system man. One big good pillow and one lil bitch pillow. You will sleep like a king

    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 I need is a pillow that is very soft and conformal on the bottom, with a kind of rigid foamy part on top. I sleep on my side with my arm under my head and I need a pillow that molds to my arm but keeps it separate from my head so I don’t pinch my sclipula.

    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.

    The real play is to get a soft fluffy pillow that you can adjust by moving the fluff around. I can virtually flatten it if my neck is bugging me, or stuff a bunch in one side for side sleeping. Mine is a sealy and I don’t think I’ll use a different brand again.

    They got 2 packs at Costco.

    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.

      I have a feather pillow that completely collapses under the weight of my head. I guess I just need the essence of a pillow.

          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.

      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.
