I came to wear these little caps fulltime a couple years ago when my hair loss from a scarring alopecia became more noticable than I liked. Some people wear them for chemo caps. Some choose to wear them on bad hair days. How about a home spa day? What are you thinking of using them for?
Prints allow you to show a little more personality and may be more suited to casual wear. My I try to coordinate with whatever color I am wearing each day. When working, I stuck with solid colors, but, you do whatever makes you happy!
The wig headform shown in the pictures is standard size. Having worn these for a while, I prefer looser styles, that do not fit tight around the ears--which for me hurts. But, I don't like too loose a fit where I feel a stiff wind is going to blown it off and maybe surprise someone with a "peep show" of my bald head. I show a little ear because I wear earrings 24/7 and it makes me feel more girly. Some people choose to cover their ears completely. All fabrics are soft so they feel nice on bald heads.
I audition the fabrics for hot weather versus cold weather, so I will let you know if they seem to work better for cold weather than hot. Nothing is perfect for warm weather, I sweat in all of them when I am working! But some cool off quicker due to "tissue" weight fabric which I prefer in the heat.
My preferred design right now is made with one seam which will be the back of your headgear. Other designs with two seams, I prefer to wear with the seams at the ears. I will make a note where necessary about the seams.

Most of the basics I do not have fabric content as I was not thinking anything other than the material stretch was important. As I update my fabrics, I will add to this section. So far most fabrics are knit, jersey and have some combination of cotten, spandex and/or polyester.
Pink Coral Animal--90% Polyester, 10% Spandex
Earthy Geometric--90% Polyester, 10% Spandex
Orange Multi fabric is tissue weight...sogreat in warm weather.
Black with Yellow Flowers is a heavier knit, so better when it is cooler.
Rust Scales is just a bit heavier...so better when it is cooler.
Sage Big Floral is just a bit heavier...so better when it is cooler.
Pink Coral Animal is tissue weight, so great for summer
Earthy Geometric is heavier, so great in winter or in the air conditioning!
