To me they both give great results and, as far as comfort is concerned you wold have to wear both and make your decision this would apply to results also. Different things work for different ppl.

With a du-rag you can set your tightness with the knot for your comfort
or if your a sound sleeper (u dont move around when you sleep) and you dont like the lines the du-rag gives you wave cap is beter

When i first started out i used wave-cap under my du-rag cause my hair was nappy but when i trained it..it became softso now i just durag but its up to you


Also... a topic was already made about this we shoud make a page of all the topics already made so we dont waste time and have room for fresh and new topic

DURAG KEEPS UR HAIR STILL UNLIKE A WAVES CAP WHICH SLIDES OFF AND MOVES AROUND.

MY WAVES FADED EVERYTIME I USED A WAVES CAP.

How do you all take care of your durags, or wave caps? 

Do you just buy a new one after a week or so? 

Or wash it after a certain amount of days?

I have about 2 weeks worth of durags so I might wear it a couple times and throw it in with the laundry since i wash clothes every 2 weeks.Wave caps I just wash in the sink with some shampoo but I always rinse them before I put them on so they arent usually that dirty. I only buy new durags to replace 1 i might have thrown out if it looked extremely worn, I buy wave caps when mine arent tight nemore.

Alright thanks!  Right now I have about 3 wave caps and 1 durag.  Which do you all think I should stock up more on, durags or wcaps?  I just started trying to get waves, and I've been wearing wave caps to sleep. 

I'm using the DREAM brand, and it hugs pretty good while I sleep.

I wear a wave cap and du-rag together, best of both worlds. plus the wave cap keeps lines off my forehaed. I only buy extra wave caps cause my du-rag never really touches my hair.

I WOULD SAY THE SPARTAN WAVE CAP SMOOTH FITTED CAUSE ITS COMFORTABLE I USE BOTH A DU-RAG AND STOCKG CAP ON AT THE SAME TIME I PUT THE CAP ON FIRST THEN PUT ON DA DU-RAG WAT THIS DOES IS THAT THE CAP HOLDS DOWN THE TOP THEN THAT DU-RAG LAYS DOWN DOES SIDES ITS GREAT FOR SLEEPING
