Why Choose a Mulberry Silk Bonnet in NZ?

Unlike cotton or synthetic fabrics, mulberry silk is naturally smooth, breathable, and gentle on all hair types — especially curly, textured, or delicate hair. A silk sleep cap minimises friction, prevents tangles, and helps you wake up with shinier, healthier hair. Plus, every bonnet arrives in elegant gift-ready packaging with a satin storage bag, making it the perfect treat for yourself or someone special.

Silk Bonnet vs Satin — Which Is Better for Hair?

While satin bonnets can help reduce friction, most are made from synthetic fibres like polyester that don’t let hair breathe or retain moisture. A mulberry silk bonnet, on the other hand, is a natural protein fibre that’s smoother, more breathable, and gentler on hair—helping reduce frizz, prevent breakage, and keep styles intact. For lasting shine and healthier hair, silk is the better choice over satin.

WHY BUY

FAQs

What is a mulberry silk bonnet?

A sleep cap made from 100% mulberry silk that protects hair overnight by reducing friction, helping retain moisture, and keeping styles intact. Ours are OEKO-TEX® certified and packaged gift-ready with a satin storage bag.

Is satin or silk better for hair?

Silk. Its natural proteins and ultra-smooth surface minimise friction, helping reduce frizz and breakage. Our 22 momme, 6A-grade mulberry silk bonnets are double-layered for maximum glide and protection.

Is satin good for hair?

Yes—satin is smoother than cotton and can reduce friction. However, “satin” is a weave and is often polyester. 100% mulberry silk is a natural fibre that’s smoother, breathable, and gentler on hair, so it typically delivers better results than synthetic satin.

Who benefits most from a hair bonnet?

Curly, coily, and textured hair; colour-treated or fragile hair; and anyone wanting to preserve blowouts, braids, or silk presses.

Will a silk bonnet make my hair flat or greasy?

No—silk is breathable and helps balance moisture. For volume, loosely gather hair on top (“pineapple”) before putting on the bonnet.

How do I wash my silk bonnet?

Gentle cold hand wash, or machine wash in a laundry bag with mild detergent. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Dry flat in shade; cool iron if needed.

Do you ship within New Zealand?

Yes—fast NZ-wide shipping (rural may take a little longer). You’ll receive tracking updates as soon as your order ships.
