Why choose a silk pillowcase?
Silk is an all-natural fiber; unlike cotton or synthetic fibers, silk has unique properties of softness and lightness, which make it an exceptional material for hair and skin care.
-
Protection against hair breakage and loss
Cotton has a grippy weave that pulls on your roots and hair strands as you move. This constant friction of hair against a cotton pillow can cause breakage and, in the long run, contribute to hair loss. By sleeping on a smooth material like silk, friction is minimized, which helps keep hair healthy. This is especially beneficial for those with fine or fragile hair, who will notice a big difference in switching to a silk pillowcase.
-
Reduced frizz
One of the main benefits of silk pillowcases is reducing frizz. Silk pillowcases have the ability to significantly reduce static electricity and heat, and allow hair to glide smoothly, thus reducing friction. Curly and coily hair particularly benefits from this. A silk pillowcase helps preserve your style while you sleep, and allows you to wake up with healthier hair in the morning.
-
Hydration preservation
Cotton tends to dry out your hair because it absorbs your hair's natural moisture and any beauty products you apply before bed. Silk, on the other hand, locks in moisture in your hair and skin overnight, leaving it shinier and healthier. Your hair will be softer, smoother, and shinier when you wake up.
-
An asset for the skin
The benefits of silk don't stop at hair. It can also do wonders for facial skin, especially if you have sensitive skin that's prone to irritation and dryness.
Contact between skin and pillow plays a key role in the development of redness or irritation. A silk pillowcase reduces friction on the skin, which limits irritation and redness, which is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin.
-
Hypoallergenic and non-irritating
Silk is naturally hypoallergenic. This means it repels common allergens like dust mites, mold, and other irritants. Silk is therefore an excellent choice for those with allergies or sensitive skin. In addition to its skin-friendly benefits, it provides a healthier sleeping environment.
6. Temperature regulation
Silk is a natural temperature regulator. It keeps your face and scalp cool in summer and warm in winter. This allows you to sleep better because your body temperature is better regulated. Quality sleep will have beneficial effects on your health.

J’ai commandé la taie il y a quelques mois, je suis ravie !
La qualité de la soie est remarquable, c’est très confortable pour la nuit et mes cheveux sont moins cassants
Je voudrais remercier chaleureusement Sophie pour son accueil et ses précieux conseils lors de ma visite à la boutique éphémère. Les articles aux couleurs chatoyantes sont magnifiques et font le bonheur de mes amies. Nous sommes ravies de partager ainsi à notre tour cette belle aventure.
Coucou Sophie! Incroyable mais depuis plus d’un an, je voulais te suggérer de faire fabriquer des housses d’oreiller en soie. Ma fille, Sophie, qui a de longs cheveux frisés n’utilise que ça pour dormir car ça lui maintient ses frisettes impeccables et en plus elle adore le contact.
Quels vont être vos prix??
Bonne fin de semaine et gros bisous
