Cotton pillowcases create friction that roughs up the hair cuticle and tugs at skin as you move in your sleep. Silk's smooth surface lets hair glide, which can mean less frizz and fewer tangles in the morning, and it doesn't absorb skincare products the way cotton does.
The key numbers are momme (fabric weight; higher is denser and more durable) and silk grade (6A is the highest). We focused on 100% mulberry silk on both sides.
ZIMASILK is one of the most popular silk pillowcase brands for a reason: grade 6A mulberry silk on both sides and a hidden zipper that keeps the pillow from slipping out.
It's a reliable first silk pillowcase for anyone who wants the benefits without overthinking the specs.
At 22 momme, ROSEWARD's pillowcase is denser and more durable than lighter silks, a good choice if you want it to hold up to frequent washing.
Its listing positions it for acne-prone skin, since silk absorbs less oil and product than cotton.
J JIMOO delivers a 22 momme mulberry silk pillowcase in a standard 20 x 26 size, giving you the heavier weight at a more approachable cost.
A good way to try a higher-momme silk.
Beauty of Orient's 19 momme pillowcase is lighter and slightly cooler-feeling, with a zipper closure.
Lighter silk is pleasant for hot sleepers and a lower-cost entry point.
How We Chose
We stuck to 100% mulberry silk on both sides from well-reviewed brands, then compared momme weight (19–22), closures, and durability so you can choose between lighter, cooler silk and heavier, longer-lasting silk.
