Do silk caps help preserve your hairstyle overnight?

Sleep in a satin bonnet to preserve your hairstyle overnight


Do you frequently struggle with split ends, bedhead, or breakage in your hair? Making the move to a Silk Hair Wrap for sleeping could be the easiest way to solve the problem. 


Introducing the Silk Hair Wrap 


We are thrilled to present our newest offering, the 100% Silk Hair Wrap! This product is the newest addition to our Silk Haircare Collection, and it will help you have happier, healthier hair!


Most of us still use cotton pillowcases for sleeping, and as cotton is a more abrasive material than silk, it tends to create more friction on hair, which increases the likelihood of breakage and tangling. Therefore, haircare professionals often recommend using a silk pillowcase to minimize friction against hair, which lowers the risk of split ends and hair breakage.


Silk hair wraps aren't as well-known as silk scrunchies, hair ties, and heatless curlers, but they're just as effective at naturally caring for your hair while you sleep, as the silk pillowcase trend has been increasing in recent years. One simple way to take care of your hair while you sleep is to use a silk hair wrap. This is a great alternative to a silk pillowcase if you're still on the fence about purchasing one.


Everything you need to know about our newest Silk Hair Wrap for sleeping is available right here. We go over the various advantages of using a silk hair wrap for your hair and address any doubts you might have about sleeping with one.


The tradition of Silk Hair Wraps for Sleeping


Across many cultures, there is a long-standing custom of sleeping with a silk hair wrap that offers numerous health benefits to hair. Silk hair wraps—also known as "head wraps" or "head ties"—have long been used in many African and Afro-Caribbean cultures to shield curly hair from breakage and damage over night. More lately, the silk hair wrap has become more and more well-liked in all cultures as a method of overnight frizz and damage protection for hair.


Silk hair wraps: what are they?


A silk wrap, bonnet, or turban is a head covering made of pure silk that is intended to shield your hair from weather-related damage. Nighttime use of a silk hair wrap can preserve your locks from damage and frizz by acting as a protective barrier while you slept.


The latest addition to our collection, the Silk Hair Wrap, is crafted from the finest 100% mulberry silk, which is renowned for its numerous hair benefits. Because we utilize 22 momme silk, a luxury thickness, in our double-sided silk hair turban, your hair will be extremely silky and protected from damage while you sleep. 


Silk vs. satin hair wrap - why to use a 100% silk hair wrap?


The greatest hair wraps made of silk are those that are 100% silk since they provide a number of advantages that are exclusive to natural silk. Prior to making a purchase, be sure a silk turban or hair wrap is made of real silk and is double-sided, meaning that the inside layer that comes into contact with your hair is made of 100% silk.


What are Silk Hair Wrap benefits?


The various advantages that silk hair wraps provide for your hair overnight have led to numerous requests for us to introduce a silk hair wrap, sometimes referred to as a silk bonnet or a silk turban for hair.


Benefits of silk hair wraps include:


Protection Against breaking: The silky texture makes hair less prone to breaking and tangling by reducing friction against it. Over time, this also aids in encouraging hair development because abrasive materials—like your pillowcase—don't harm hair.


Moisture Retention: Silk preserves the natural oils in your hair, unlike cotton or other materials. Compared to other materials like cotton, silk's inherent fibers allow it to naturally retain more moisture, keeping your hair nourished and healthy throughout the night.


Diminished Frizz: Reducing friction significantly lowers the likelihood of waking up with frizzy hair, which is especially advantageous if you use a silk hair wrap for curly hair.


Temperature Control: Silk has a built-in temperature regulator that keeps your scalp from being overly hot or cold.


Decrease the amount of hair products required: You can use fewer additional products to maintain the health of your hair by combining a natural haircare tool to minimize frizz and enhance hair health!


Make sure your Silk Hair Wrap is made from 100% real silk! Real silk is used to create the best silk hair wraps because it is a naturally breathable material that is essential for long-term benefits and better hair health. Your hair won't benefit from wearing synthetic materials every night in the same way as it would from pure silk.


How to wear a Silk Hair Wrap?


It's easy to put on a silk hair wrap, and you can make it fit your hair type and length:


  • You can leave your hair down or style it in a loose bun or ponytail, whichever you like better. In addition to keeping it from getting tangled, this makes it easy to fit under the wrap.
  • You can change the size and shape of our Silk Hair Wrap to fit any hair type. Wrap it around the back of your head so that the front edge is just above your face.
  • Slowly tuck all of your hair into the silk hat, making changes as you go to make sure it covers all of your hair.
  • Carefully take off the silk hat in the morning or whenever you want to. Start from the front and pull it backwards. 

How to wash your Silk Hair Wrap?


Care is required when handling our Silk Hair Wrap due to the delicate nature of the fabric, which is crafted from 100% pure mulberry silk. Like with all of our other 100% silk products, we advise routinely hand-washing your silk hair wrap with a mild detergent at room temperature.
