Why Silk Is Seriously Good for Your Hair
Updated: April 2025
Silk isn’t just for your pillowcases and pyjamas anymore. In fact, it’s become the ultimate secret weapon for keeping your hair smoother, stronger, and glossier—no salon trip required. Whether you're heatless curling your hair overnight, preserving your extensions, or simply trying to tame that halo of frizz, this luxe fabric is doing the most for your strands behind the scenes.
So, what makes silk so special?
Let’s break it down. Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, breathable, and incredibly gentle on both skin and hair. Unlike cotton or satin, which can tug, twist and dehydrate your locks, silk glides over your strands—reducing breakage, fighting frizz, and locking in that all-important moisture. Translation? Less static. Fewer tangles. More shine.
Frizz-Free Dreams, Literally
If you’re not already sleeping in silk, consider this your official invitation. Our Silk Sleep Set—featuring the award-winning Silk Heatless Curler and matching best-selling Silk Hair Wrap—is the overnight beauty ritual you didn’t know you needed. Not only does it create soft, bouncy curls without a hint of heat damage, but the silk wrap keeps the curler in place and protects your hair as you snooze. Bedhead? Never heard of her.
Meet the MVP: The Silk Hair Turban
New on the scene and already a cult favourite, our Silk Hair Turban is the chicest way to level up your nighttime routine. It cocoons your hair in moisture-retaining luxury, helping to reduce breakage and keep your style intact. It’s ideal for all hair types—especially curly or textured hair—and looks glam enough to wear long past bedtime. Made from 100% Grade 6A Mulberry Silk, this silk cap ensures your hair stays hydrated and healthy throughout the night.
The OGs: Scrunchies, Silk Bags & More
Still obsessed with our original silk staples? So are we. Our Silky Skinnies (in dreamy pastel tones) and Luxurious Larges are made from 100% silk to keep your ponytails polished and kink-free. And don’t even think about storing your extensions in a drawer—our Silk Hair Bag protects them from tangling, drying out, or losing their shine between wears.
Why Hair Rehab London Loves Silk
We've been swaddling our extensions in silk since day one—because we know it works. Many of our team still wear clip-ins from years ago, and silk storage has been the secret to keeping them looking brand new. So impressed have we been with the longevity of our clip-ins when stored in silk, that every pack of Hair Rehab Clip-In Hair Extensions now comes with it's own pure silk bag. Don't worry if your Clip-Ins pre-date our new luxurious packaging, the silk bags are available to purchase separately.
