Why choose a silk bonnet?
- Less friction: Silk reduces wear and hair breakage during the night.
- Retains moisture in your hair: Unlike cotton, which absorbs moisture, silk helps keep your hair hydrated.
- Hypoallergenic and temperature-regulating: Perfect for sensitive scalps and comfortable all year round.
What does “22 momme” mulberry silk mean?
“Momme” is a measure of silk’s weight and quality. 22 momme indicates a thick, luxurious, and durable quality. Mulberry silk is also the finest type of silk on the market - ideal for both skin and hair.
How to choose the right silk bonnet
- Size: Choose a spacious model, especially if you have curly, thick, or long hair.
- Closure: Elastic or ties? Tie closures are more flexible, while elastic is easy and quick.
- Material: Choose 100% mulberry silk in 22 momme - it delivers the best results night after night.
User tips and hacks
- Use the “pineapple” method: Make a loose bun on top of your head and place your bonnet over it to preserve volume and curls.
- Gently shake out your hair in the morning and add a little moisture - then you are ready for the day!
- Washing & care: Hand wash in cold water and air-dry to preserve the silk’s shine and durability.
Step 1: Put all your hair into the bonnet and adjust the soft ties.
Cross the ties at the back of your head and pull them tight for a more secure fit.
Step 2: Bring the long ties around to your face and tie a cute bow or knot at your forehead
Step 3: And now you are ready for bed - enjoy your sleep with the non-slip silk bonnet!
