"The secret edge over everyone is always gonna be your sleep and it's gonna be your recovery."

Andy Elliot Professional Trainer

"It's definitely had a positive impact on not needing as much caffeine in my life!"

Michael S. Satisfied Customer

"When I wear it, I get much better sleep. And that's validated by an Oura Ring, a Sleep8, and a wearable (like an Apple Watch). I get, personally, better deep sleep and more time in deep sleep when I wear mouth tape."

Dr. Geoffrey Trenkle Oral Surgeon; Founder LACENTA

"It really doesn't hurt and the flexibility is great! Since I don't mouth breathe anymore, I sleep a lot better."

Adrienne J. Satisfied Customer

Frequently asked questions

Our bodies have instincts that wake us up if breathing becomes uncomfortable due to congestion. It’s a lot smarter than we give it credit for! Mouth breathing causes the blood vessels in the nose to trigger mucus production and swelling; nasal breathing helps to combat that. Hostage Tape is also porous, so air can pass through if needed. If you’re hesitant, practice with the tape + nose strips during the day to get used to nasal breathing, then wear it all night when you can (nasally) breathe comfortably!

Hostage Tape is CPAP-compatible, and many use it in conjunction with their nasal mask. Far more comfortable than a chin strap, it is often used to fix the "air leak" (through the open mouth) associated with CPAP machines.

We always recommend that everyone evaluate their own needs and seek the treatment that is best for them. It’s not for everyone, but Hostage Tape has been a great solution for many with mild OSA.  To maintain an open airway, the tongue should rest at the roof of the mouth. When you mouth breathe, the tongue is likely to be on the floor of the mouth and more likely to fall into the back of the throat. Hostage Tape promotes nasal breathing, which in turn helps keep the tongue in the correct position. If you require a CPAP, we recommend using Hostage Tape in conjunction with a nasal mask.

Ask your partner instead of us. The bottom line is that snoring and irritability from lack of sleep are major contributors to arguments. We can help with some of that.

By sealing your lips, you are forced to breathe through your nose. This promotes better, more peaceful sleep for both you -and- your partner.

Absolutely, yes. It’s not for everyone, but what many people don't know is that practicing nasal breathing can help your nose function better. Over time, consistent nasal breathing can dilate your airways and reduce congestion in general. Many folks with allergies have experienced a positive difference when using Hostage Tape. The addition of Hostage Nose Strips can be beneficial as well, widening the airway and helping with nasal breathing when it normally feels uncomfortable. Practice during the day first, then wear through the night when nasal breathing feels natural.

You -can- use Hostage Tape if you have a deviated septum, however mouth tape may not be the solution for everyone. We always recommend "practicing" to make sure mouth tape will work for you. It may not. Some use Hostage Tape + Hostage Nose Strips during the day until they feel comfortable using it through the night. Hostage Nose Strips are intended to widen the airway and help increase airflow for easier nasal breathing. We have users that have seen a difference in their deviated septum after using Hostage Tape.

Are you kidding me? Countless badass ladies use Hostage Tape every night to reap the tremendous benefits of nasal breathing during sleep. Check out our reviews to hear directly from some of the awesome women in the Hostage Tape Army.
