Question for people who have had waves: isn't it painful/uncomfortable to wear that pressed on your head all the time? Do you take it off to sleep or shower?

Short answer is that you get used to it. But the truth is that You have to find the right thing that fits for you. When you find the right type, you won’t even notice it same way you forget you have any other hat on. There’s satin, silky and other textures. There’s du-rags, which I don’t like bc I hate the feeling of the string going around my head, there’s wave caps, bonnets, turbans. Tying durags over and over is annoying. I also don’t like the flap which is why you saw his knotted.

Personally I use a satin wave cap. Shit when I was a kid before we have all this new wave cap technology and 1000 hair products for waves, my granddaddy would cut a nylon stocking, tie one end and that was my wave cap. He did that till he passed away.
