There are fabulous products on the market, they're called dual shades, and they have two layers, one being a blackout layer and one being a light filtering. So if you don't want to keep it at all times, but definitely need it super dark and blackout to sleep, that's the best. One of the best ways to do that is by multi-layering. If you're going for one layer, use room darkening, use blackout fabric on your window treatment, use outside mount, so there's no what's called light bleed on either side of the window.

QuestionHow do I stop light from coming in on the sides and top of blackout curtains?Community AnswerI use a curtain rod that is curved on the ends. It's cheap but it works. That way I can pull the curtain around the sides and prevent the light from coming in there. The only way I found to keep light from coming out of the top is to use black poster board on my windows, then blinds, then my blackout curtains.
