Why Your Pillowcase Is Ruining Your Hair (And What I Switched To)

Cotton pillowcases create friction against your hair every night for eight hours. Silk eliminates that friction. The damage from cotton is slow, cumulative, and by the time you notice it, it has been happening for years.

1. Less frizz in the morning. Not zero — but significantly less. The difference is noticeable within the first week.
2. Your blowout lasts longer. The style you set the night before holds instead of getting destroyed while you sleep.
3. Less breakage over time. This one takes longer to see but it is the one that matters most.
4. Your skin will also thank you. Silk does not absorb your skincare the way cotton does. What you put on your face at night actually stays on your face.
