When was the last time you traveled? It's been a while, right? For me too, my friend. So I can vaguely remember trying to catch some z's on the plane and feeling rather uncomfortable. Even the travel pillow doesn't seem to help.
But wait, there's a good chance we've been using that pillow the wrong way. You've got to check this out.
I'm the kind of person who likes to move a lot, so planes make me feel restricted, and my legs start to hurt.
Even when I use a travel pillow, my head seems to just bop from side to side. What am I doing wrong? Well, as it turns out, it could be my pillow.
A man recently posted on TikTok, and his video pretty much went viral. He claims that the travel pillow shouldn't go at the back of your head. Instead, you should place it in the front.
Apparently, by flipping the pillow the other way, you can rest your head forward. Which, of course, can result in you getting some actual sleep on the plane.
Wow! This fact could have saved me from so much unnecessary tiredness.
I guess I'm not the only one who didn't know about this, ha, ha! I wish somebody would have informed me about this. Shouldn't the company making these pillows enclose a pamphlet or something like that?
I guess we can all look uncool together from now on, ha, ha! I say, who cares as long as it's more comfortable. Am I right?
Hmm, that makes total sense to me. I'm only 5'3, so that's why it feels even more uncomfortable to have the pillow at the back of the neck. Duly noted — I give this advice two thumbs up!
If you tilt the pillow slightly, you can rest your head on it even better. Apparently, it's really comfy this way. I have to try that next time I do travel. Now this pillow won't seem so useless, hee-hee.
Or did you discover it just as I did? Are you willing to try it? I mean, why not? You might look a bit silly and get strange looks, but you'll be the one in on the joke.
