We
spend a third of our lives sleeping with our hair on the pillow. There
is a secret that good hairdressers and movie stars have known for
decades: Silk pillowcases! Cotton and rougher fabrics draws moisture
from your hair. The fabric also twists the hair at the root causing
damage to the hair follicles. The end results are dry hair, split ends,
and less healthy hair. Silk is gentle and will not draw moisture from
the hair. This leaves the hair shiny and healthy.
With so many sellers, different price points and types of silk on the market the consumer may wonder:
How to tell if the silk is genuine
or artificial? Why this silk looks so different than the other?
There are several test that can be performed to determine that.
But perhaps the best and most definitive test is
Burn Test. You can take a few threads from the material and burn it with a
flame. Genuine silk burns with smell of burnt hair. When you burn the edge of
real silk fabric, the flame is invisible and it will stop burning as soon as the
flame is removed. The ash produced hence, is black, crispy and brittle. It turns
to powder when twisted in fingers.With the artificial silk, it is quite the
opposite. When synthetic silk is burnt, there is a flame and smell of plastic.
No ash is produced.
