Product Review: Satin Pillowcase


My transitioning buddy gave me a satin pillowcase for my birthday and so, I decided to give it a try! I have never had a satin pillowcase before and after hearing about it, I was very grateful to her for giving it to me.  I decided to sleep without my satin bonnet or silk scarf and see how my hair looks like the next morning. 

It was not a bad night... however, it took some getting use to because of the slippery effect the satin gives. 

Here is my hair before I went to bed:

After a night of tossing and turning without any head covering (eEkK!)

Not bad... I even wore it out to my daughter's photoshoot that morning...

Do you use a satin pillowcase?  Do you like it?

    Probably one of the most helpful hair helpers is my satin pillowcase. Keeps my hair pretty much in place, too, but it has to be good satin. Love the 1 I ordered online from Neero & Ana. Did notice that my hair wasn't as dry and didn't break off.

    Satin pillowcases have been a great help, for those nights where you are too tired to fuss with your hair. I try and use a satin hea scarf as often as I can though!

Does having lots of hair on your arm means long hair on your head?

Image
  No, having a lot of hair on your arms doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have long hair on your head. Hair growth patterns, thickness, and length on different parts of the body are influenced by factors such as genetics, hormones, and individual biology. For example: • Hair on arms is usually vellus or terminal hair, which grows to a certain length and then stops. • Scalp hair grows continuously in a cycle (anagen, catagen, telogen phases), allowing it to become much longer than body hair. While genetics may influence both arm and scalp hair characteristics, they don’t directly determine the length of one based on the other.

How to know your hair porosity

Image
Hair porosity refers to how well your hair absorbs and retains moisture. There are three main levels of porosity: low, medium, and high . To determine your hair porosity, you can use the following methods: 1. The Float Test • Take a few strands of clean, dry hair (no product or oil on it). • Fill a glass or bowl with room-temperature water. • Drop the hair strands into the water and wait 2–4 minutes. • Low porosity: Hair floats on top, as the cuticles are tightly closed and resist absorbing water. • Medium porosity: Hair slowly sinks to the middle, as it absorbs a balanced amount of water. • High porosity: Hair quickly sinks to the bottom, as it absorbs water easily due to open or damaged cuticles. 2. The Slip Test • Run your fingers up a strand of hair from the tip to the root. • Low porosity: Hair feels smooth, indicating tightly closed cuticles. • Medium porosity: Hair feels slightly textured, indicating healthy cuticles. • High porosity:...
