And while we're always up for a good scare, there's one place we'd prefer not to encounter any frights: the mirror. So, if you wake up giving "bad witch"-tangles, frizz, and your hair looking like you've been out there flying high on your broomstick overnight-we're coming to the rescue. Read on to learn how our silk pillowcases can tame the horror on your head and leave you with healthy, hydrated, manageable tresses that are absolutely bewitching.

The Curse of Your Cotton Pillowcase

You may not know it, but your favorite cotton pillowcase is likely the mystery culprit behind your scary hair situation. Why? Because plant-based cotton is naturally absorbent and pulls moisture away from your hair, acting like a reverse conditioner. On top of that, cotton causes damage from friction; even the finest cotton contains tiny fibers that pull and tug at your tresses, which leads to frizz, tangles, bedhead, and hair breakage.

So, what's a good witch like you to do? Ditch your cotton pillowcase and switch to silk.

The Magic of Silk Pillowcases: Beautiful Hair and Beyond

Like a powerful potion for perfect hair, the trick of sleeping on a silk pillowcase has been handed down by beauty experts for decades. In recent years, the magic of silk has gone mainstream. A pure silk pillowcase delivers a beautiful sleep experience like nothing else:

Friction-Free Sleep: The soft, gentle surface of a silk pillowcase means that your hair won't get pulled tugged, or tangled, as often happens with a cotton pillowcase. Your hair glides across the surface, preventing tangles, bedhead, frizz, and breakage.

Locks in Moisture: Like your hair itself, silk fabric is protein-based. Rather than pulling moisture away, silk is a hydrating environment that nourishes hair and helps it retain natural moisture.

A Style Saver: A natural silk pillowcase can preserve your hairstyle-whether it's a blowout, pricey extensions, or elaborate edges-while you sleep. Silk also minimizes the damage from color and chemical treatments by helping hair retain its natural oils and fighting breakage.

Pampers Your Hair: No matter your hair type, the soft surface of silk means less trauma and stress on your locks. Whether you're battling frizzy hair; protecting straight hair from breakage and split ends; managing thin, fragile hair; or encouraging regrowth after hair loss, a pure silk pillowcase is the perfect protective environment for your tresses.

And there's more reason to be enchanted by a silk pillowcase: all those benefits of sleeping on silk translate directly to your skin as well. The friction-free surface of a silk pillowcase helps prevent sleep creases and wrinkles while keeping delicate facial skin naturally hydrated. Silk is also hypoallergenic, hygienic, and gentle on sensitive skin. It even regulates temperature to keep you comfortable in any conditions. Of course, silk is also the pinnacle of luxury, delivering a soft, lustrous feel that is unmatched by any other fabric.

Mulberry Park Silk is your best source for high-quality silk pillowcases at fair and affordable prices. We are committed to providing the best silk pillowcase and the very best value for your silk dollar:
  • All of our silk pillowcases are 100 percent pure silk and made from the highest quality silk on the market (Grade 6A) in a lustrous charmeuse weave. (Note: With the rising popularity of silk pillowcases, some unscrupulous merchants are representing satin pillowcases as genuine silk. Silk and satin are not the same. Real silk is a natural, protein-based fiber, while a satin pillowcase is a synthetic fabric made from petroleum-based nylon or polyester. Learn how to tell the difference between genuine silk and synthetic satin).
  • We offer a range of momme weights-19, 22 (our best seller), and 30 momme-in a wide palette of designer colors, including shades that coordinate with our popular silk sheet sets. Learn more about choosing the best momme weight pillowcase for your needs and budget.

  • Silk is naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to allergens, mold, and dust mites. Mulberry Park Silks has taken an additional step for safety. All of our products are independently certified under OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 as safe from harmful chemicals.
