The Benefits of Silk for Your Hair and Skin

I’m sure you’ve seen silk pillowcases and scrunchies on the market, and you may have wondered, does this luxurious fabric really boost the health of my hair and skin? The simple answer is yes. Here’s why you may want to consider switching out your cheap pillowcase for one made with this beneficial fabric.

For your hair:

If you wake up with frizzy or brittle hair, you may want to look to your pillowcase before blaming your shampoo and conditioner. Cotton tends to tug at your hair overnight, which can result in a tangled mess by the time you wake up. For smoother hair in the AM, make the switch to silk.

Aside from the appearance of your hair, silk pillowcases also help keep your hair hydrated. This is especially beneficial during the dry winter months, when you need to breathe more life into dull locks. This fabric can help you if you suffer from brittle hair or a flaky scalp.

If you want to reduce breakage even further, when tying your hair back throughout the day, invest in a few silk scunchies to get the job done. Besides making for a stylish accessory, the silk material doesn’t pull at your hair as much as other hair ties do, which helps retain your hair’s health over time.

For your skin:

To not only wake up with shiny hair but also a youthful-looking complexion, investing in silk pillowcases can help with both. While the best thing you can do for problematic skin is researching products that are best for your skin type, dermatologists have also weighed in on the beauty benefits of silk.

Just like silk prevents how much tugging your hair endures throughout the night, the fabric also helps to reduce the friction on your skin. If you’re the type of sleeper who snoozes on your stomach, you especially may want to make the switch. Silk may help with fine lines and wrinkles by providing you with a smoother surface to rest your face on.
