Pillow Talk: Let’s Discuss Our Favorite Pillows and Why

Searching for the perfect pillow? Rest your little head, we come with options! 

We are asked all the time what pillow we recommend. People are commonly met with their favorite answer- it depends. What one person LOVES will make another flop in irritation until 2am. However, we DO have two that we like and commonly suggest. Why do we suggest them? Well, the Coop Pillow (see below) allows you to fill the pillow to your specific requirements and preferences. The Tri-Core Pillow (also see below) on the other hand, works wonderfully for those of us that tend to flip flop from our back to our side… back to our back and then to our other side. 

Three simple steps to determine if a pillow is right for you:

  1. It keeps your head parallel to the bed when laying on your side.

  2. It keeps the head in a neutral position when laying on your back (not flexed forward).

  3. You don’t wake up with neck stiffness (crazy, we know).

When it comes to the process of switching to a new pillow, we liken it to breaking in a new pair of shoes. WORK into it. It might be a little “off” for a few weeks to even up to a little over a couple weeks. Just know that if you consistently wake up with headaches and neck pain, your pillow is likely not the best fit for you!

1. Coop Pillow

The Coop Pillow is the perfect solution for the sleeper who has shopped around for the right fit and just hasn’t been able to find their perfect match. It comes pre-stuffed, but they also supply you with additional stuffing on the side. We love this because it’s completely customizable!

2. Tri-Core pillow: 

Firm pillow

Gentle pillow 

Rest your head on this and do it comfortably laying on your side OR back! This is fantastically designed to support your head while laying on your back. It cradles the neck into a neutral C-Shape when lying face up and then when you turn over to your side… “voila” it’s there to support you!
