Now, let’s delve into why sleeping on a silk pillowcase truly works wonders for curly hair and conquers the frizz.
Do Curly Hair Types Need a Silk Pillowcase?
Firstly, let’s understand why your curly hair might require extra care at night. Coily, curly, and wavy locks have a harder time retaining moisture. Due to the textured or long hair shaft, it becomes challenging for sebum – the natural oil produced by our scalps to moisturise and protect our skin – to travel from root to tip, resulting in dryness and split ends.
Enter the silk pillowcase for hair – not only does it keep your curls in check, but it also enhances the appearance of your skin.
How Your Pillowcase Affects Your Hair
Those deceptively smooth cotton pillowcases are wreaking havoc on your precious locks. Why, you ask?
Even the finest 1,000-thread count Egyptian cotton can deplete your hair’s moisture, causing it to become dry and roughening the cuticle, which ultimately leads to breakage.
Think of it as sandpaper rubbing against your curls, waves, and coils throughout the night.
Are Silk Pillowcases Beneficial for Hair?
Silk, once reserved for the elite, has been used for thousands of years in various applications, from clothing to linens to fishing lines. Revered for its ethereal shimmering beauty, it is also known for its strength (even stronger than steel), odor resistance, anti-dust mite properties, anti-aging benefits, and temperature regulation.
But what does this mean for your hair? Silk, being a protein-based fiber, acts as a natural moisturiser, absorbing less moisture and eliminating frizz. Its smooth surface prevents the fabric from tugging at your hair, unlike cotton.
Less friction plus more moisture equals reduced breakage and smoother, sleeker hair.
Moreover, silk is breathable and temperature regulating. If you often find yourself flipping your pillow to find the refreshing cool side at night, a silk pillowcase offers blissful relief from nocturnal overheating.
Do Silk Pillowcases Benefit the Skin?
Absolutely! The advantages of silk pillowcases extend beyond hair care.
Your cotton pillowcase, in fact, counteracts the efforts you put into your nighttime skincare routine. All the carefully applied moisturizers, serums, and oils get absorbed by the fabric overnight, precisely when your skin is at its thirstiest and most receptive to these products. Sleeping on silk enables better absorption of the ingredients in your nighttime regimen.
So, silk pillowcases not only benefit your hair but also keep your skin hydrated, crease-free, and radiantly glowing. They even contribute to reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
That’s not all. Silk is naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic, making it an ideal choice for individuals prone to irritation.
