What your pillow isn’t telling you

 Every night you go to bed and sleep softly on your cotton pillow hoping to get the good night dream. But wait, before you crash on that pillow, you should know some things. I know that you need your pillow to sleep blissfully, but these same pillows can cause damage to your hair and skin (yes, it can cause damage!). You must be wondering what exactly is happening and the dirty secrets your pillow kept from you. 

How do pillows cause damage to your hair?

 Sincerely, not all pillows cause damages to your hair, but certainly your cotton pillow cause damage to your hair. There is a subtle roughness to cotton which tends to create friction between your hair and the pillowcase. The bad thing about this friction is it can cause breakage which can cause some hair issues.

If you think that is all, read this. Cotton pillows strip the moisture from your hair making it frizzy and brittle, and you don’t want to wake up in the morning looking like a big mess.

So what do you do if you want to avoid this whole friction, breakage and frizzy hair stuff? You get a satin pillowcase or Bantu Coils Satin Lined hair turban
