This is a question that finds the answer to personal preferences, experts say, but what a good part of the study agrees with is that the pillow should be as high and as low as the head and neck to be fully supported and comfortable in the chosen sleeping position.

While people who sleep on their backs and on the one hand need higher pillows, because they provide support for the head and neck in such positions.
