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!

What to do if it seems like your natural hair is not growing

@breezyspuffs (IG) If it feels like your hair isn’t growing, the issue may not actually be growth itself—hair grows about half an inch per month on average. The problem may be breakage, slow growth, or factors that hinder visible length retention. Here’s what you can do to promote healthier, stronger growth: 1. Check Your Routine for Breakage Causes: • Reduce heat styling: Excessive use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow-dryers can damage hair. Try air-drying or using lower heat settings and always use a heat protectant. • Limit chemical treatments: Frequent coloring, perming, or relaxing can weaken hair, leading to breakage. • Be gentle when detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb and start from the ends, working your way up to avoid pulling and snapping. 2.

Use moisturizing conditioners, deep conditioners, or hair masks weekly, and consider leave-in conditioners or oils like coconut
