Sleeping on a satin pillowcase will make your hair less frizzy, less likely to split and stay in better shape. In addition to benefits for your hair, it also benefits your skin. Satin can be woven with cotton, silk, polyester and other materials. If you go for a satin pillowcase, choose one made of silk.
You dyed your hair with WECOLOUR hairdye and the colour turned out exactly what you hoped for. Beautiful! Of course, you want to keep this colour as long as possible. And the healthier your hair is, the longer the colour stays beautiful. But how do you keep the quality of your hair at its best? Besides the tips you might have already read in our blog Why is my hair breaking off, we want to highlight one more: sleeping on a satin pillowcase.
Although many people think that satin is a fabric, nothing could be further from the truth. Satin is a method of weaving that creates a smooth and supple fabric. So it can also be made of polyester or cotton. If you want to experience all the benefits of a satin pillowcase, choose one made of silk. Silk is a natural material derived from the silkworm. Silk absorbs less moisture from your hair and skin than when you sleep on a cotton pillowcase. So if you suffer from dry or brittle hair, or would like to avoid this, it is definitely worth trying.
Most pillowcases are made of cotton or a mix of cotton and polyester. Nothing wrong with that, of course, but these pillowcases have a rougher surface, causing more friction with your hair and skin while you sleep. This can cause you to get tangles in your hair faster, causing it to break or split faster. Sleeping on a satin silk pillowcase reduces this friction due to its smooth texture. The result: your hair frizzes less, stays in better shape and is less likely to break off. In addition, cotton absorbs moisture from your hair. Silk keeps the hydration where it belongs: in your hair. Besides, silk also feels wonderfully supple and smooth.
Apart from being better for your hair, sleeping on a satin silk pillowcase also has a better effect on your skin due to its moisturising properties. This helps prevent wrinkles and pimples. So it's a win-win situation!
Want to optimally protect your hair from damage? Then try WECOLOUR Colour Mask. Besides protecting and restoring your hair during dyeing, you can also use Colour Mask as a deep-working, conditioning and moisturising mask. To give your hair an extra boost, you can let the mask soak in a little longer by sleeping with it. Apply the mask to dry or wet hair and make a loose bun on top of your head or make a braid. If you prefer not to get your pillow dirty, put a towel on it for a while.
If you want to keep the quality of your hair as good as possible, swap your cotton pillowcase for one made of silk. Your hair will stay soft and won't break off as much. Your skin will be happy too. Not quite convinced of the benefits yet? A silk satin pillowcase is also anti-allergic, easy to care for and looks luxurious in your bedroom. Unfortunately, we do not sell satin pillowcases at WECOLOUR (yet), but you can nourish and protect your hair at night with our hydrating hair mask.
