1. Less Hair Damage and Frizz
The benefits of sleeping on a silk pillowcase are most pronounced for hair, experts say, because the smooth surface reduces friction and thus breakage.Certain fabrics, like cotton sheets can catch the cuticle layer of hair, which is bumpy and shingled. The friction lifts and tears these layers, causing damage and worsening any existing damage. Sleeping on silk helps prevent this friction, especially if you toss and turn a lot and if you have curly hair, which needs extra TLC. Curly hair should always be on a silk pillowcase. This hair type naturally has porosity issues because the cuticle stands up off of the hair strand where the wave pattern is its strongest. “You want to be extra sure that you are being gentle with that hair. Hair products that are high in pH, such as chemical straighteners, dyes, perms, and some shampoos, can also swell the cuticle and cause it to work like Velcro against a pillowcase. A silk pillowcase would help.
2. More Moisture Maintained
There is some evidence that when compared to typical cotton pillowcases, less moisture is absorbed with a silk pillowcase. These benefits are more pronounced for hair, especially curly and textured hair. Curly or natural hair doesn’t retain as much moisture as straight hair and is more prone to breakage. Cotton tends to absorb moisture, so it’ll sap what little moisture is in your hair overnight. The same goes for your skin. In a third-party lab test, the silk pillowcase compared its product to cotton pillowcases and the results showed that the silk absorbed significantly less face cream than the cotton.
3. Fewer Facial Wrinkles and Creases
The theory is that silk’s slippery surface reduces friction on the skin, and thus reduces the facial wrinkles and morning creases that other fabrics might cause when you sleep on your side or face. The friction can be decreased by sleeping on silk’s smoother surface. Silk creates 43 percent less friction, on average, than cotton.
