Growing an impressive beard is not a task to be underestimated! Having all the help you can get will boost that hair growth and keep it healthy too. We’re here to discuss something you probably won’t have thought about when it comes to an envious beard… a silk pillowcase

That’s right, sleeping on a silk pillowcase is great for your beard, for a number of reasons.

Silk is a natural material that has amazing moisturising properties that benefit your face whilst you sleep, and also your beard. Facial hair is naturally a lot more coarse and dry in comparison to the hair on your head, so protecting this is much more important. 

Due to the coarse, dry nature of facial hair, it is more susceptible to damage – that’s why so many people add moisture to their beard with shampoos and oils. Take it one step further and sleep on a natural silk pillowcase that will keep your skin and facial hair hydrated throughout the night. 

Hair is often damaged throughout the night due to friction on the pillowcase as you sleep, especially with traditional bedding materials like cotton which are very rough and textured. Using a silk pillowcase eliminates this risk as it is a gentle property and won’t cause friction throughout the night. 

If you’ve found that your beard is dry and coarse but nothing seems to help, we’d certainly recommend trying a silk pillowcase for that extra moisture and protection for your beloved beard. 

Not only will you notice a positive difference in the thickness of your facial hair, but your beard will thank you too! 

Of course, silk pillowcases provide exceptional benefits for those without facial hair too! All the moisturising properties will work to keep hydrated and refreshed throughout the night, for a more fresh-faced morning look. The friction-free material protects head hair from frizz, damage and breakage, meaning no more bed head in the mornings!
