Don't use a fan when you have one on. People who worked in a factory in our town were given the neck coolers one summer by management.....there was no AC just fans. Too many people were getting rashes and stiff necks so they had to stop using them.

it's called "soil release"...you can find it in the garden stores...it is mixed with soil to hold water during dry seasons. Why not try rice??? It gets cold in the freezer and is just as refreshing...no wet hanging around your neck!

They are called water polymer crystals. You can find them online at www.The ArtisticShop.com. Hope this helps.

The ones at Hobby Lobby are huge. They are not what you use in the neck scarves. They swell up so big so they can support your flower stems. Too big to use in the neck scarves. Sorry, but I don't recommend them.
