FAQs
Is this sleep cap suitable for all hair types?
Yes, the smooth silk material is beneficial for all hair types, particularly those prone to frizz, dryness, or tangling.
Can I wear this with wet hair?
While silk is breathable, it is generally recommended to use the cap on damp or dry hair rather than soaking wet hair to prevent mildew or scalp irritation.
How often should I wash the sleep cap?
Depending on usage and the amount of hair product used, washing once every 1-2 weeks is usually sufficient to maintain hygiene.
Does the bow-knot get in the way while sleeping?
The bow is designed to be decorative yet flat enough to minimize discomfort, though side sleepers may prefer to position it slightly to the front or back.
Will this cap cause sweating?
Silk is a natural, breathable fiber that regulates temperature, making it much cooler and more comfortable than synthetic alternatives.
Troubleshooting
The cap slides off during the night
Ensure your hair is tucked in securely and the band is positioned firmly against your hairline. You may need to adjust the placement of the knot or the fit around the ears.
Silk feels dry or stiff
The silk may have residue from hair products. Wash gently with a neutral detergent and ensure you rinse thoroughly, then allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To wear, gather your hair into a loose bun or ponytail if necessary, then pull the cap over your head starting from the forehead. Ensure all hair strands are tucked inside for maximum protection. For care, it is essential to hand wash the cap in cool water using a mild silk-friendly detergent. Avoid twisting or wringing the fabric, as this can damage the silk fibers. Instead, lay it flat on a clean towel and roll it to absorb excess moisture before air drying away from direct sunlight. Do not bleach or tumble dry, as extreme heat and harsh chemicals will degrade the material's quality.
