For our hair, nighttime can be a complicated stage. If you don't yet benefit from the silk pillowcase from Emily's Pillow, you can opt for the Silk Night Cap from Emily's Pillow.
This cap will bring many benefits to your hair, which are not negligible. Silk is essential for the well-being of your hair due to its softness.
There are some pillowcase materials that do not provide any benefit. Certain materials damage the quality and cuticle of the hair. It is therefore important to know the different materials of pillowcases, and to be able to opt for the silk night cap.
The different materials
1 - Cotton
Cotton is a widely used material, but that's not why it has a role to play.
What are the disadvantages of cotton?
This material absorbs sebum and over time, the friction of the cotton against the hair weakens the strands, and makes the hydration more susceptible to breakage, hence hair loss. This material does not contain amino acids, so the hair will be very dry after a night spent on a cotton pillowcase.
2 - Wool:
Wool is a material that lasts over time. It is composed of natural keratin which also makes up our hair and nails and which we tolerate very well. It is a material that lasts over time and remains comfortable for many years.
What are the disadvantages of wool?
Wool can shrink when exposed to high heat or become deformed when washed. It can expand or shrink. Many people find wool itchy, and are very sensitive to it.
Many people with long hair will often find that lying on a wool pillowcase at night will cause tangled hair. This can be very difficult to style and the hair usually ends up damaged.
Wool should generally be washed in cold water, by hand or on a delicate cycle, and it should be hung to dry naturally.
3 – Linen
It is a thermo-regulating textile, which will reduce the feeling of heat in summer. Linen is also a textile that causes few allergies, it is said to be anti-allergic. It is a healthy and natural material that is solid.
What are the disadvantages of linen?
Linen is a little rough, and some don't find it soft enough. It is often mixed with a little cotton to soften. Linen is also a material that wrinkles very easily.
4 - Bamboo
Bamboo is a very soft material. It is also a very good material for hair that has undergone treatments, hair regrowth, or even wearing a wig.
What are the disadvantages of bamboo?
Bamboo having many advantages, it still has some disadvantages. Firstly, it will not withstand washing at high temperatures or tumble drying, so this material will not stay soft for long. Your cotton cap will get rougher and rougher with each wash, which isn't very pleasant when your scalp is very dry or sensitive.
