Silk and satin are popular for night-time hair care, especially for curly and coily hair, because they feel smooth. Evidence that they reduce breakage or frizz is mostly anecdotal or from manufacturers — see our sleep guide.
What to look for
- Material — silk is a natural fibre; satin is a weave, often polyester.
- Fit — bonnets and wraps that stay on without pressing on the hairline.
- Care — check washing instructions.
