Federa Seta Capelli: What Your Hair Actually Feels
Shop the Silk Pillowcase →The Scalp and Lengths Against Cotton Every Night
Cotton, being highly absorbent, draws in the scalp's natural oil and the hair lengths' moisture, which locally dries out the hair fiber and creates constant friction with every head movement during sleep.
The Measurable Effect of Switching to Silk
By gliding instead of catching, silk's smooth surface reduces mechanical breakage from friction and lets hair retain hydration applied before bed for longer, a cumulative effect visible after several weeks.
"It's not that silk nourishes hair — it's simply less friction every night, which over time translates into less breakage and more naturally preserved shine.
"
| Factor | Cotton | Silk |
|---|---|---|
| Friction on the hair fiber | High | Low |
| Absorption of hydration | High | Minimal |
| Cumulative mechanical breakage | More frequent | Reduced |
A Result Built Night After Night
The effect isn't immediate but cumulative: every night without excessive friction is a night without additional breakage, which shows visibly in hair health after several weeks.
