Frequently asked questions
What is mulberry silk?
Mulberry silk is a natural protein fiber produced by silkworms that feed exclusively on mulberry leaves. It is considered the highest quality silk available, known for its exceptional softness, strength, and lustrous appearance. Mulberry silk has a smooth surface with minimal irregularities, making it ideal for luxury textiles and skincare products. The purity and consistency of mulberry silk make it the preferred choice for premium silk products.
Why are your hats lined with silk?
We line our hats with silk because it offers multiple benefits for comfort and hair health. Silk creates a smooth surface that reduces friction between your hair and the hat material, minimizing breakage and frizz. The natural properties of silk help regulate temperature and moisture, keeping your scalp comfortable throughout the day. Additionally, silk is hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin, making it an ideal choice for those with delicate skin conditions or hair concerns.
Is the silk natural?
Yes, all of our silk is 100% natural. We use only genuine mulberry silk sourced from ethical suppliers who maintain high standards for silkworm care and environmental sustainability. Our silk is not synthetic or blended with other materials. We are committed to providing authentic, natural silk products that deliver the genuine benefits of this luxurious fiber. Each product is crafted with pure silk to ensure the highest quality and performance.
How should I wash silk products?
To maintain the quality and longevity of your silk products, we recommend gentle hand washing in cool water with a mild, pH-neutral detergent. Avoid using hot water, bleach, or harsh chemicals that can damage the delicate silk fibers. Gently squeeze the soapy water through the fabric without rubbing or wringing. Rinse thoroughly with cool water until all soap is removed. For drying, lay the item flat on a clean towel or hang it in a shaded area away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Never use a dryer or iron on silk products.
Are your products suitable for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. Our silk products are excellent for sensitive skin. Silk is naturally hypoallergenic and does not irritate or cause allergic reactions like synthetic materials can. The smooth surface of silk reduces friction and irritation, making it ideal for people with conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, or general skin sensitivity. Silk is also naturally resistant to dust mites and mold, which are common allergens. Additionally, silk helps maintain the skin's natural moisture balance, preventing dryness and irritation. We recommend our silk products for anyone with sensitive or reactive skin.
