The opposing inner surfaces of the support are curved to form a keyhole shaped space between the support sections sized to permit the neck rest to comfortable fit around a person's neck without feeling yoked. The top surfaces and bottom surfaces of said support sections are preferably flat with rounded, the top surface of the pillow portion is higher than the top surfaces of the support sections and is curved to fit comfortable against the nape of the users neck. A flocking material is applied to the exterior surfaces of the neck rest.
