Swim Caps

Does anyone know the difference between silicone and latex swim caps? Does one work better than the other? Are there better caps to use for practice and for meets? Which kind of caps do you prefer to use?

    I've tried to go silicone (I have a very pretty Speedo silicone composite cap) but it just didn't work out. It just didn't stretch enough. Actually, Speedo latex doesn't fit me right either. Tyr latex fit comfortably enough (I have long, thick hair so I need something with a little more give in order to get it all stuffed up in there.) I have to wear a cap or else my hair is a nightmare!
