What are the benefits of sleeping on a silk pillowcase?

Silk provides an exceptionally smooth sleeping surface that creates less friction against your hair and skin than many conventional pillowcase fabrics.

People often choose silk pillowcases as part of their nighttime hair and skincare routines because the smooth surface can help reduce friction against hair, minimize tangling and feel gentle against facial skin. Silk is also lightweight and breathable, making it a comfortable choice throughout the year.

What does 22 momme silk mean?

Momme, often abbreviated as "mm," is a measurement traditionally used to describe the weight and density of silk fabric.

Generally, a higher momme indicates a denser silk fabric. Our pillowcases are made from 22 momme silk, providing a luxurious weight while maintaining the smoothness and breathability associated with silk.

Are Slumber Wellness pillowcases satin or real silk?

They are real mulberry silk, not polyester satin.

Silk and satin are not interchangeable terms. Silk refers to a natural fibre, while satin refers to a type of weave and can be manufactured using several different fibres, including polyester.

When shopping for a pillowcase, checking the actual fibre content is important if you're specifically looking for genuine silk.

Why are silk pillowcases more expensive than cotton pillowcases?

Genuine mulberry silk is a premium natural material, and producing high-quality silk fabric is considerably different from manufacturing conventional cotton or synthetic pillowcases.

Slumber Wellness was created to make quality silk pillowcases more affordable in Canada without sacrificing the specifications we consider important.

Why are Slumber Wellness silk pillowcases more affordable than some luxury brands?

Our goal is to offer quality silk at an accessible price rather than relying on a large luxury-brand markup.

We focus on the product itself: **22 momme, mulberry silk, thoughtful construction and simple packaging. This allows Canadians to experience genuine silk without necessarily paying luxury-brand prices.

Are silk pillowcases good for your hair?

Silk's smooth surface creates less friction against your hair as you move during the night.
For this reason, silk pillowcases have become popular with people looking to reduce overnight friction, tangling and frizz as part of their haircare routine.

Results naturally vary depending on hair type, products and individual sleeping habits.

Can a silk pillowcase help reduce hair breakage?

Because silk provides a smoother sleeping surface, it can reduce some of the friction and pulling your hair experiences against your pillowcase.

A silk pillowcase isn't a treatment for hair loss or damaged hair, but reducing unnecessary overnight friction can make it a useful addition to a haircare routine.

Are silk pillowcases good for curly hair?

They can be particularly appealing for curly, textured or frizz-prone hair because the smooth surface creates less friction than many conventional fabrics.

A silk pillowcase can complement other nighttime haircare practices designed to preserve curls and reduce tangling.

Are silk pillowcases good for your skin?

Silk provides an exceptionally smooth surface against your face.

It is also less absorbent than some conventional pillowcase materials, making silk popular with people who don't want their pillowcase absorbing as much moisture from their skin and nighttime skincare products.

Can silk pillowcases prevent wrinkles?

A silk pillowcase should not be considered a treatment or prevention method for wrinkles. However, silk creates a smooth sleeping surface with less friction and pulling against the skin than many rougher fabrics. This is one reason silk pillowcases have become popular as part of beauty and skincare routines.

Can silk pillowcases help with acne?

A silk pillowcase is not an acne treatment, and we don't recommend treating it as one.

Its smooth texture can feel gentle against sensitive facial skin and creates less friction than some fabrics. Regardless of pillowcase material, regular washing is important for keeping the surface that touches your face clean.

Are silk pillowcases suitable for sensitive skin?

Many customers choose silk because of its smooth and gentle texture.

Individual sensitivities and skin conditions vary, however. If you have a diagnosed skin condition or specific allergy, consult an appropriate healthcare professional about materials suitable for your needs.

Yes, provided you select an appropriate pillowcase size.

Yes, with extra care.

Place your silk pillowcase inside a mesh laundry bag to help protect it from pulling, stretching and contact with rougher items.

We recommend washing silk separately from heavy garments, towels, items with zippers and other materials that could snag the fabric.

We recommend air drying your silk pillowcase rather than tumble drying it.

Lay it flat or line dry according to its care instructions and keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight.

Can I use bleach on my silk pillowcase?

No. Do not use chlorine bleach on silk.

Harsh cleaning products can damage the delicate silk fibres and affect the appearance and feel of the fabric.

Can I iron my silk pillowcase?

Silk wrinkles will often relax naturally after washing and use, so ironing usually isn't necessary.

If ironing is required, follow the product's care label and use a low-temperature setting suitable for silk. Avoid excessive heat.

How often should I wash my silk pillowcase?

How frequently you wash a pillowcase depends on personal preference, skincare products, hair products and sleeping habits.

Many people wash their pillowcases approximately once a week. If you use substantial nighttime skincare or hair products, you may prefer to wash yours more frequently.

Proper washing and handling will help maintain the silk's smooth finish.

How can I make my silk pillowcase last longer?

Treat silk as a delicate fabric.
