CGC: Silky International Silky the Cap

Product Description:   Silky the cap is a 100% suede-like rayon bonnet style cap. Daily wear of Silky will protect your hair from becoming brittle, dry and damaged, thus preserving all your beautiful hairstyles with vigor and shine. The soft elastic edge will not rub out your edges, just push your cap up to the hairline and sleep or go about your day….enjoy!! 


My Take:  I like this cap WAY better than the ones I had been getting at Target for $3. The material is way more luxe and the elastic band keeps it shape a LOT better (I find that, especially with my daughter, the cheaper ones need to be replaced quite often). It fits close enough to your head to not slip and fall off over night (important if you're a rough sleeper), is roomy enough to fit a lot of hair (even in a pineapple), but not so tight as to be uncomfortable and leave marks on your forehead. So while it is a bit pricey, there are quite a few attributes that warrant it costing more than your average sleeping cap. I'm not sure that $25 is the right price, but I do think that it is worth more than other caps on the market.

    1. I'm glad this review helped! The price tag is a bit more than you would expect for a silk bonnet/stocking cap, but honestly I really like the product. I have a lot of hair and sleep with it in a high ponytail (pineapple) and other caps barely cover my hair line with it like that. That's totally not an issue with the Silky Cap and I love that the band doesn't squeeze my head (which gives me headaches) but it stays put through the night.
