We do various kinds of hair care every day when we are awake, but we also sleep for a long time. How can we care for our hair while sleeping? The secret is a pillowcase or nightcap. Pillowcases or nightcaps keep touching our hair while we sleep. We recommend a silk pillowcase or nightcap.
Absorbent
During sleep, our hair is exposed to pillowcases for extended periods of time. Therefore, if you want to have beautiful and healthy hair, you must choose a suitable pillowcase. Silk pillowcases are a great choice for us because of their moisture-wicking properties. Silk can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp. The silk pillowcase will provide you with a comfortable sleep and keep your hair looking longer as the silk absorbs moisture from your hair.
Natural Protein
The natural protein in silk has a very similar structure to the keratin in hair and has a high affinity for hair. It can penetrate into the cortex of human hair to nourish and repair damage and increase the elasticity of hair to a certain extent. Softness, making hair smoother and shiny.
Hypoallergenic
Cotton’s rough texture is known to cause breakage, tangles, mattress and frizz in your hair. However, silk pillowcases made of perfectly smooth fibers will not cause mechanical irritation to your hair. What's more, silk contains many of the same amino acids found in the human body, which can help reduce hair damage, such as split ends.
Chemical Free
Silk is produced from silkworms raised in a controlled environment with no chemical exposure. In contrast, many fabrics on the market, such as cotton, are produced from chemically intensive crops. So, sleep on a silk pillowcase and your hair will be healthier and happier.
