Prices are in New Zealand dollars.", "source": "general", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contact/" }, { "question": "Is it real mulberry silk?", "answer": "Yes. Every product we list is described by its maker as mulberry silk, and the product page states the silk content. Where part of a product is not silk, such as an elastic, a zip or a mask filling, the page says so. We do not sell polyester satin.", "source": "general", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contact/" }, { "question": "What does momme mean?", "answer": "Momme is the weight of silk fabric. One momme is about 4.3 grams per square metre, so a higher number means a denser, heavier cloth. Most silk pillowcases are 19 to 25 momme.", "source": "general", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contact/" }, { "question": "Is silk the same as satin?", "answer": "No. Silk is a natural fibre. Satin is a weave, and most low-priced satin is woven from polyester. If a label says satin and does not say silk, assume it is a synthetic.", "source": "general", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contact/" }, { "question": "Can I return it if it is not right?", "answer": "Yes.

Silk has far less surface texture than cotton, so hair slides across it instead of catching. Many people also wear one during the day to keep hair off their face.", "source": "Beige 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/beige-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What does 22 momme mean?", "answer": "Momme is the traditional unit for silk weight, a bit like thread count is for cotton. A higher number means a denser, heavier fabric. At 22 momme this silk sits in the heavier range used for sleep accessories, so it has body and does not feel flimsy.", "source": "Beige 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/beige-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is this real mulberry silk?", "answer": "The listing states silk as both the material and the inner material, and the product is described as 22 momme mulberry silk.

The practical result is that silk sits against your hair whichever way the bonnet is turned.", "source": "Beige 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/beige-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it inside out?", "answer": "Yes.

A double layer silk bonnet uses silk on both faces, so the smooth surface is on the inside where it counts.", "source": "Champagne 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/champagne-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it inside out?", "answer": "Yes.

The crown of the cap has enough room to gather long hair loosely inside, which is the main thing people want from a silk bonnet for long hair. Coil it or loosely twist it rather than packing it in tight.", "source": "Champagne 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/champagne-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What about very short hair?", "answer": "It works fine. Short hair does not need the volume, and the elastic band holds the cap on a smaller profile without issue. People with short curls often use one simply to keep the shape overnight.", "source": "Champagne 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/champagne-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for curly or coily hair?", "answer": "Yes, this is the sort of cap people look for when hunting the best silk bonnet for curly hair. The smooth interior means curls are not dragged against cotton all night, which helps a twist-out or wash-and-go hold its definition.", "source": "Champagne 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/champagne-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it over braids?", "answer": "Yes. A silk bonnet for braids needs room in the crown and a band that stretches without pinching, and this one has both. Longer braids can be gathered and tucked up inside.", "source": "Champagne 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/champagne-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will it stay on all night?", "answer": "The elastic band is there for exactly that. Most people find it stays put, though if you are a very restless sleeper you may wake to find it shifted. Pulling the band a little lower at the nape helps.", "source": "Champagne 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/champagne-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it comfortable in warm weather?", "answer": "Silk is light and breathes well, so a lightweight silk bonnet is usually more comfortable than a synthetic cap in summer.

The crown gives enough space for most sets, and the band holds everything in place.

Satin is a weave, not a fibre, and satin products are often polyester.

This one uses mulberry silk for both layers, which means silk sits against your hair and also against your pillow.

Measure first rather than guessing.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Does it work on curly hair?", "answer": "Yes. Curly and coily textures are one of the main reasons people reach for a silk bonnet, because the smooth surface means less friction as you move at night.

Cotton is more textured and more absorbent. That is the practical difference, and it is why silk is the usual choice for a hair bonnet.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it all night?", "answer": "Yes, it is designed for overnight wear. The ties mean you can set it loose enough to stay comfortable for hours. If you wake up with a pressure line on your forehead, loosen the ties a touch the next night.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Will it stay on while I sleep?", "answer": "The tie closure is the key here, because you control the tension. Restless sleepers usually tie it a little firmer and find it stays put. If it still slips, check that you are not overfilling it with hair at the crown.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Does it leave a mark on my forehead?", "answer": "Ties adjust, so you can avoid the tight band pressure that fixed elastic sometimes creates. If you notice a line in the morning, it is a sign the ties were set too firm. Loosen slightly and try again.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it during the day?", "answer": "Absolutely. People wear it while doing skincare, applying make-up, cleaning, cooking or just relaxing at home. It keeps hair off the face and out of the way without pins or clips.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Is it good for wet hair?", "answer": "It is better to let hair dry or at least get to damp before putting any bonnet on. Trapping fully wet hair under any cap for hours is not ideal for the hair or the fabric. Silk also handles moisture better when it is not soaked.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash only, in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates. Swirl gently, do not scrub or wring, and rinse until the water runs clear. Press the water out in a towel and dry flat.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine?", "answer": "The care instruction for this item is hand wash only, so we do not recommend a machine cycle. Machine agitation can pull the fibres and stress the tie seams. Hand washing takes a couple of minutes and keeps the silk in better shape.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry it?", "answer": "No. Heat from a dryer can dull and weaken silk fibres. Lay it flat on a towel, reshape it and let it air dry away from direct sun and radiators.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "It depends on how much product you use on your hair. Every one to two weeks suits most people, more often if you use oils, creams or heavy leave-in treatments. Washing it regularly also keeps it feeling fresh against the skin.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "Yes, on a low setting. Place a thin cloth between the iron and the silk and keep the iron moving. Avoid steam blasting directly onto the fabric.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Will hair products stain the silk?", "answer": "Oils and creams can mark silk over time, which is normal with any light fabric. Washing it on a regular schedule helps a lot. If you use rich leave-in products, consider a second bonnet so one is always clean.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Does it work with a silk pillowcase too?", "answer": "It does, and plenty of people use both. The bonnet protects the hair directly while the pillowcase gives a smooth surface for your skin and any hair that escapes. Together they cover most of the friction points.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Is this a good gift?", "answer": "It is one of the easier gifts to get right because there is no sizing drama and it suits every hair texture. A silk bonnet with ties works well for a partner, a parent, a teenager or a friend who has just started a new hair routine. It also packs flat for posting.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "Where is it made?", "answer": "The country of origin for this item is China.

If the fit is the only issue, tell us how it sat on your head and we can advise whether a different style would suit you better. We would rather sort it out than have it sit in a drawer.", "source": "Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet with Ties", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-double-layer-silk-bonnet-with-ties/" }, { "question": "What is a silk bonnet actually for?", "answer": "It is a soft cap you wear over your hair while you sleep. The silk surface is smooth, so hair slides across it instead of catching and dragging the way it can on a cotton pillowcase. It also keeps longer hair gathered in one place overnight.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What does 22 momme mean?", "answer": "Momme is the traditional measure of silk density, a bit like thread count is for cotton. A 22 momme silk bonnet sits in the heavier end of the usual sleepwear range, which gives it more body and a better drape than lightweight silk. Lower momme fabrics feel thinner and more delicate.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is the inside silk too, or just the outside?", "answer": "Both sides are 100% mulberry silk. That is the detail to check on any bonnet, because some are only silk on the visible outer shell with a synthetic lining underneath. Here the surface touching your hair is silk.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What size head does it fit?", "answer": "The suggested range is roughly 21 to 23 inches of head circumference. The buckle and drawstring let you adjust within that range. Measure around your head just above your ears if you are unsure.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it work for very thick hair?", "answer": "The supplier notes it is not ideal for thick or high-volume hair. If you have a lot of hair to tuck up, the cap may not hold it all comfortably. People looking for the best silk bonnet for sleeping with very thick hair usually want a larger, roomier style.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How does the closure work?", "answer": "There is a drawstring that gathers the opening and a buckle that holds the setting in place. You adjust it once to suit your head, then it stays set each night. There is no elastic band, so you avoid that tight line across the forehead.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will it stay on all night?", "answer": "Set the buckle snug enough that it sits firmly without pressing, and it generally stays put through normal turning. If it slips, tighten the drawstring a little more. Very restless sleepers sometimes prefer a slightly tighter setting than feels right at first.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "Pink, in a plain solid finish with no pattern. It has the soft sheen that mulberry silk naturally has, so the shade reads slightly different in daylight versus lamplight.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is silk too hot to sleep in?", "answer": "Silk breathes well and does not hold heat the way a thick knit or fleece does. That is why this is listed as an all-seasons piece. Most people find a breathable silk bonnet comfortable in both summer and winter.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it with wet hair?", "answer": "It is better to let hair dry first, or at least get it to damp. The bonnet is not water resistant and trapping wet hair under any cap for hours is not comfortable. If your hair is damp, give it some air time before you put it on.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash only, in cool water, with a gentle detergent made for delicates. Fasten the buckle before washing so the hardware does not snag the fabric. Do not bleach, do not wring and do not put it in the dryer.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How do I dry it?", "answer": "Press the water out gently by rolling it in a clean towel, then reshape and dry flat. Keep it out of direct sun and away from heaters or a hot airing cupboard. Heat and strong sun are what dull silk over time.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "Yes, on the lowest cool setting, on the reverse side, and ideally with a cloth between the iron and the silk. Most of the time a quick smooth with your hands while damp is enough. Never use steam blasted directly onto the fabric.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine on a delicate cycle?", "answer": "The care instruction on this product is hand wash only, so machine washing goes against it. The agitation plus the buckle hardware is a risk to the silk. Hand washing a 22 momme silk bonnet takes about three minutes, so it is not much of a chore.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Every one to two weeks is a reasonable rhythm for most people. Wash more often if you use oils, leave-in creams or styling products at night. Less often is fine if you go to bed with clean, dry, product-free hair.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it work for curly hair?", "answer": "Many people with curls use a silk sleeping cap for curly hair to keep the shape tidy overnight and reduce the morning tangle. Whether it suits you depends on curl volume, since this particular bonnet is not aimed at very voluminous hair. Pineapple your curls loosely on top before you put it on.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for braids or locs?", "answer": "It can work for flatter styles and shorter braids that sit close to the head. Long or bulky braids may exceed what this size comfortably holds. Check your hair volume against the 21 to 23 inch guidance before ordering.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it work for short hair?", "answer": "Yes. Short hair is easy to tuck in and the adjustable closure lets you set the fit snugly. Some people with short styles use it simply to keep hair from flattening oddly overnight.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can men wear it?", "answer": "Of course. It is listed as an adult product with no gendered sizing, so the only questions are head size and whether pink is your colour. The fit range is the same for everyone.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for children?", "answer": "The age range listed is adult, and the fit range of 21 to 23 inches reflects adult head sizes. A child's head would usually be smaller than the bonnet can gather down to. For children, look for a cap sized for them specifically.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it during the day?", "answer": "Nothing stops you. Some people wear a silk hair wrap around the house on wash days or under a hood. It is cut as a sleep bonnet though, so it is styled for bedtime rather than as outerwear.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What are the dimensions and weight?", "answer": "The item measures 28 x 23 x 2 cm and weighs 0.23 kg. Those are the flat packed measurements, so the cap opens out larger once worn. It folds down small enough to drop into a handbag.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it good for travel?", "answer": "It is light, folds flat and takes up almost no bag space, which makes it easy to pack. People often keep one in an overnight bag permanently. Just avoid cramming it under heavy items for long stretches.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What is the fabric made of exactly?", "answer": "100% 22 momme mulberry silk, described as medium weight with no stretch. There is no pattern, just a solid pink. No other fibres are specified in the product record.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does the silk have any stretch?", "answer": "No. Silk of this type is a woven fabric with no give, which is exactly why the buckle and drawstring exist. All the sizing flexibility comes from the closure rather than the fabric.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will the colour fade?", "answer": "Treat it like any fine silk and keep it out of strong sunlight and off hot radiators when drying. Wash cool and avoid bleach or stain removers. Looked after that way, the pink holds its depth well.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it come with anything else?", "answer": "It is a single bonnet, one item per pack. No extra accessories are listed in the product record. The packaging is suitable to give as is if you are buying it as a present.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it make a good gift?", "answer": "It does. A mulberry silk bonnet is a small, practical present that most people would not buy for themselves, and the pink reads well for birthdays, Christmas or Valentine's Day. It is also one size adjustable, which takes the guesswork out.", "source": "Pink 22 Momme Adjustable Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-22-momme-adjustable-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How long does delivery take and what does it cost?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier from Australian warehouses and most arrive in 5 to 10 working days.

You pull it on over your hair before bed, or wear it as a turban-style wrap during the day. The model number is LSTB01.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What is a silk bonnet actually for?", "answer": "It keeps your hair contained and resting against silk rather than against a cotton pillowcase. Cotton has a rougher surface, so hair catches and drags as you move. A mulberry silk bonnet gives hair a smoother surface to slide over all night.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Why double layered rather than single?", "answer": "Two layers mean silk faces your hair and silk faces outward, so there is no lining in another fabric. The second layer also gives the cap a bit more structure, so it holds its shape on the head instead of flopping.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What grade of silk is used?", "answer": "It is described as 6A grade mulberry silk. That grading refers to the quality of the raw silk filament. The momme weight is not specified in this record.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What size head does it fit?", "answer": "It is made for head measurements of roughly 51 to 58 cm, which is about 20 to 23 inches.

Measure around your head just above the ears if you are unsure.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it adjustable?", "answer": "It is designed as a relaxed, non-tight fit within that 51 to 58 cm range rather than as a heavily adjustable cap. The specific closure style is not detailed in this record. The intent is a comfortable hold without pressure marks.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will it fall off while I sleep?", "answer": "For most people within the stated size range it stays put, because the fit is snug enough to hold without pinching. Restless sleepers sometimes find any bonnet shifts a little. If yours moves, try tucking more hair in so the cap sits deeper on the head.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is this a good silk bonnet for curly hair?", "answer": "Curls are one of the hair types it is aimed at. The relaxed shape gives curls room to sit rather than crushing them flat against the scalp. If you wear a very large curl set, check that your volume fits comfortably before buying.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it work over braids?", "answer": "Yes, a night bonnet for braids is one of the main uses. The roomy silhouette is intended to sit over braids without compressing them. Extremely long or very thick braid sets may exceed what this bonnet can hold.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for short hair?", "answer": "It will fit, but it will feel looser because there is less hair filling it out. Some people with short hair prefer that, others like a smaller cap. If you have a pixie cut, expect a generous fit.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What about very long or very thick hair?", "answer": "The brief notes that very long or extra-thick hair may exceed the capacity of this bonnet. If your hair is past mid-back or unusually dense, a larger-capacity style will suit you better. It is designed around medium hair volume.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can men wear it?", "answer": "There is nothing structural stopping anyone from wearing it. The fit range and the relaxed shape apply regardless of who is wearing it. The floral exterior is simply a design choice.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it reduce frizz?", "answer": "Silk is a smoother surface than cotton, so there is less friction as hair moves against it. Many people choose a silk bonnet for frizz for that reason. We will not promise a specific cosmetic result, because hair behaves differently from person to person.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will it protect a blow-dry or set style?", "answer": "Keeping hair contained and off a rough pillowcase helps a style hold its shape through the night. How well it holds depends on your hair, the style and your products. Pinning or wrapping hair before putting the bonnet on usually helps.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it during the day?", "answer": "Yes. It is intended to double as a daytime wrap, whether that is during a skincare routine, around the house, on a call or out of the house as a turban. The floral outer is designed to be seen.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it leave a mark on my forehead?", "answer": "The cut is deliberately relaxed to avoid that. A tight elastic band is what usually causes the line, so this style aims for a hold that is firm enough to stay on but soft enough not to press. Everyone's head shape is slightly different, so comfort will vary.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it with wet hair?", "answer": "It is better to let hair dry most of the way first. Trapping very wet hair under any cap for hours keeps it damp, and the bonnet itself will stay wet too. Damp-dry hair is usually fine.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash only, in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates.

Heat and agitation are hard on silk and will shorten the life of the fabric. Hand washing takes a couple of minutes.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Every one to two weeks is a sensible rhythm for most people. Wash sooner if you use heavy oils, leave-in treatments or styling creams overnight. Product build-up is what dulls silk fastest.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry it?", "answer": "No. Dry it flat, away from direct sun and away from heaters or radiators. Direct heat and strong sunlight both take a toll on silk fibres and colour.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "A cool iron on the reverse side is fine if it needs smoothing. Avoid steam straight onto the outer face and avoid a hot setting. In most cases hanging or laying it flat sorts out any creasing.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is silk hard to look after?", "answer": "Not really, it just needs a different routine. Cool water, gentle detergent, no wringing and flat drying covers almost everything.

A silk bonnet gift for her works because it is useful, it is not sized like clothing, and the floral exterior makes it feel like a present rather than a utility item. It suits anyone who already looks after their hair.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I buy more than one?", "answer": "Yes, and plenty of people do, so there is always a clean one while the other dries.

We would rather sort it out than have it sit unused in a drawer.", "source": "Pink Flower Double-Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-flower-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What is a silk bonnet actually for?", "answer": "It is a soft cap you wear over your hair while you sleep. The point is to stop hair rubbing against cotton pillowcases and sheets all night. Silk is smooth, so hair slides across it instead of catching.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What is this bonnet made from?", "answer": "It is made from mulberry silk and built in a double layer. The record does not list a full fibre percentage breakdown, so we state only what the supplier specifies. The ties are described as ice silk.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What does double layer mean here?", "answer": "There are two layers of fabric rather than one. That gives the cap more body, so it holds its shape on the head and feels softer against the hair. It also makes the bonnet less likely to go limp after washing.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it come in other colours?", "answer": "This listing is the purple version with a solid, unpatterned finish. Other colours in the silk bonnet range are listed separately. We do not quote supplier colour codes, so what you see described is what ships.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How does it fasten?", "answer": "With a drawstring closure and long ties. You pull the string to the width you want and tie it off, which lets you set the fit yourself rather than relying on a fixed elastic band.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will it stay on all night?", "answer": "That depends on how you set the drawstring. Tied snug at the nape, most people find it stays put through normal tossing and turning. If it works loose, pull the string in a little more and tie the long ties under the hair.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it one size?", "answer": "It is an adjustable fit rather than a sized garment. The drawstring is what does the sizing work. Exact measurements are not specified in this record, so if you need a precise circumference, ask us before ordering.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is this a good choice for curly hair?", "answer": "Yes. Curls and coils are the hair types that suffer most from being flattened and roughed up against a pillow. A roomy bonnet lets you tuck curls up without crushing them, which is why many people looking for the best silk bonnet for curly hair start with a double layer cap.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it work for very long hair?", "answer": "It can. Coil the length loosely and tuck it up into the crown before you draw the string closed. If your hair is extremely long or very thick, allow a bit more room at the top rather than pulling the drawstring tight.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "What about braids, twists or protective styles?", "answer": "Those are a common use. Keeping a style covered overnight means less frizz lifting at the roots and less friction along the length, so you get more nights out of the style before it needs redoing.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will it help with fine hair?", "answer": "Fine hair tangles and snaps more easily on a rough surface, so reducing friction helps keep it tidy. We make no claims about hair growth or hair health, only that silk is smoother than cotton.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it during the day?", "answer": "Nothing stops you. Some people wear a bonnet around the house while hair sets, or over a deep conditioner. It is styled as a sleep cap, but the fit is the same either way.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it hot to wear?", "answer": "Silk is light and the ties are described as cooling ice silk. Most people find a silk cap sits more comfortably in warm weather than a thick cotton or synthetic one, though two layers will always be warmer than one.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Do I need a silk pillowcase as well?", "answer": "You do not need both, but they do different jobs. A pillowcase helps whatever part of your head is touching it. A bonnet travels with you when you roll over, so the whole head stays covered.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash only, in cool water with a small amount of mild detergent for delicates. Do not bleach. Rinse well, press the water out gently, then reshape and dry flat out of direct sun.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine?", "answer": "The care instruction is hand wash only, so we would not recommend it. Machine agitation and spin cycles are hard on fine silk and can pull the weave or damage the drawstring channel.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry it?", "answer": "No. Heat is the quickest way to dull and weaken silk. Dry it flat at room temperature, away from radiators, heat pumps and direct sunlight.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Every week or two is a reasonable rhythm for most people. Wash it sooner if you use heavy oils, creams or leave-in products, since those build up on the inside surface over time.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "If it needs smoothing, use the lowest iron setting on the reverse side, ideally with a cloth between the iron and the silk. Most creases drop out on their own once the bonnet is worn.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Will the purple colour run in the wash?", "answer": "Wash it on its own the first few times in cool water to be safe. That is standard practice with any dyed silk item and avoids any risk of colour transfer onto lighter fabrics.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Can I use it with hair oil or leave-in conditioner?", "answer": "You can, and plenty of people do. Just be aware that oils mark fabric over time, so you may want to wash it more often. The best silk hair wrap for bed is the one you keep clean.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for children?", "answer": "It is designed as an adult accessory with an adjustable drawstring. We would not recommend any tied headwear for babies or very young children sleeping unsupervised.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Does it come in a box?", "answer": "Yes, it is supplied boxed, which makes it straightforward to give as a present without extra wrapping. That also keeps the silk protected in transit.", "source": "Purple Double Layer Mulberry Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/purple-double-layer-mulberry-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is it a good gift?", "answer": "It is an easy one, because the adjustable fit removes the guesswork around sizing.

You pull it on over your hair before bed and the elastic band at the back holds it in place. It comes as a single cap in one adult size.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "What does 19 momme mean?", "answer": "Momme is the unit used to measure the weight of silk fabric, a bit like thread count is used for cotton. A 19 momme silk is mid-weight, so it has real substance without feeling heavy or stiff. It is one of the most common weights used for silk sleepwear and bedding.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Is the cap single or double layered?", "answer": "It is double layered. Two layers of silk give the cap more structure than a thin single-layer bonnet, so it keeps its shape better over the hair. It also means the fabric is less likely to feel see-through or flimsy.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "How does it stay on my head?", "answer": "There is an elastic band sewn into the back of the cap, and that band is covered in silk. The elastic gathers the opening so the cap grips lightly around the hairline and nape. It is designed to hold without needing to be tight.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Will one size fit me?", "answer": "The cap is sold in one adult size and the stretch in the band is what makes it work across a range of head sizes. The flat cap measures about 25.4 cm by 20.3 cm before it is stretched. Very large hairstyles, high buns or thick locs may sit better in a larger or roomier bonnet style.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Why silk instead of cotton?", "answer": "Silk fibres are smoother than cotton fibres, so hair slides over them with less friction. Cotton has a rougher surface and tends to catch on hair as you move. That is the main practical difference between a silk cap and a cotton one.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Does it work for curly hair?", "answer": "Many people with curls use a bonnet so their hair is not rubbing directly against the pillow overnight. A silk bonnet for curly hair gives curls somewhere smooth to sit while you sleep. Whether the fit suits you will depend on how much hair you are tucking in.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it with braids?", "answer": "Yes, braids usually tuck in easily as long as they are not bulky enough to stretch the band to its limit. A silk bonnet for braids is a common way to keep the ends from rubbing on bedding. If your braids are very long you may want to coil them before putting the cap on.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for short hair?", "answer": "It can be. A one size silk sleep cap sits comfortably over short hair and there is simply less to tuck in. Some people with short hair find the cap slides more easily since there is less bulk to grip.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "It is a solid silver, with no pattern or print.

That is light enough that most people stop noticing it after a few minutes. The packed shipping weight is listed at 0.06 kg.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "What are the exact dimensions?", "answer": "The item dimensions are given as 25.4 x 20.3 x 1.3 cm. That is the flat, unstretched measurement of the cap. The elastic band means the opening expands well beyond the flat width when worn.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Does it come as a set?", "answer": "No, one pack contains one cap. The listing specifies a single item, single piece, single pack.

Do not bleach and do not wring it out. Press the water out in a towel, reshape the cap and dry it flat away from heat and direct sun.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine?", "answer": "Hand washing is the safer option for a fine silk cap with an elastic band. Machine agitation can stress the seams and the elastic over time. If you do use a machine, a mesh bag on the most delicate cold cycle is the least risky approach.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry it?", "answer": "No, keep it out of the dryer. Heat is hard on silk and on elastic, and a dryer will shorten the life of both. Dry it flat on a towel instead.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "If it needs pressing, use the lowest iron setting and work on the inside of the fabric. Keep the iron away from the elastic band entirely. Most of the time a quick reshape while damp is enough and no iron is needed.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "That depends on how much product you use in your hair and how warm you sleep. Every one to two weeks suits most people, and more often if you apply oils or creams at night. Washing too often with harsh detergent will wear the silk down faster.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Will the silver colour run in the wash?", "answer": "Wash it on its own in cool water the first few times to be safe, as you would with any new dyed fabric. Avoid hot water and bleach, which can both affect dye. Do not leave it soaking for long periods.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Will it slip off during the night?", "answer": "The elastic band is there to stop that, and most people find the cap stays on. Silk is a slippery fabric though, so if you are a very restless sleeper it can shift. Tucking the band a little further down past the hairline usually helps.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Is it too warm for summer?", "answer": "Silk breathes reasonably well and 19 momme is a mid-weight fabric, not a heavy one. The cap is also very light at around 57 grams. Most people find it comfortable year round, though a double-layered cap is naturally a touch warmer than a single layer.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it for a daytime nap or around the house?", "answer": "Yes, there is nothing stopping you. People often wear a silk hair wrap for sleeping and then keep it on while they potter about in the morning. It is a plain, simple design rather than a decorative one.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Is it good for travel?", "answer": "It is, because it folds down small and weighs almost nothing. A lightweight silk sleep cap takes up less room than a pair of socks in a bag. It is handy for hotel bedding you have no control over.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Does it work over wet hair?", "answer": "It is better to let hair dry or at least get it to damp before putting the cap on. Wet hair trapped under any cap stays wet longer, and the silk will be soaked through. If you do wear it over damp hair, wash the cap more often.", "source": "Silver 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Cap, Adjustable", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/silver-19-momme-silk-sleep-cap-adjustable/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for children?", "answer": "The age range on this product is listed as adult and it is sized to fit adult heads.

A 22 momme silk bonnet is heavier and denser than a thin 16 or 19 momme piece, so it feels more substantial and drapes better.", "source": "Sky Blue 22 Momme Double Layer Silk Bonnet", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/sky-blue-22-momme-double-layer-silk-bonnet/" }, { "question": "Is this bonnet silk on both sides?", "answer": "Yes.

Harsh sun and bleach are the two things most likely to dull any dyed fabric.", "source": "Green 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Standard Size", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Most people wash pillowcases weekly, and that is a sensible rhythm for silk too. If you use hair products or sleep after applying creams, you may want to wash more often.

This pillowcase ticks each of those boxes.", "source": "Green 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Standard Size", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/green-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Will it slide off my pillow at night?", "answer": "The zipper closure is what prevents that. Silk is slippery against other silky fabrics, so if your pillow itself has a very smooth cover you may notice a little movement, but the enclosed design keeps the pillow contained.

The zip on this one is concealed, so the seam lies flat and you do not feel a ridge under your head. It also makes taking the cover off for washing quicker.", "source": "Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-zip/" }, { "question": "Does the zip feel scratchy against your face?", "answer": "The zip runs along one edge of the pillowcase rather than across the sleeping surface, and it is concealed within the seam.

Many people find it comfortable across seasons. Your mattress, duvet and room temperature all play a part too.", "source": "Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-zip/" }, { "question": "Why do people choose a silk pillowcase for hair?", "answer": "Silk filaments are long and smooth, so hair slides across the surface instead of catching on the shorter, rougher fibres found in cotton. Less friction means less tugging as you turn over. That smoothness is the main reason the best silk pillowcase for hair is a common search.", "source": "Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-zip/" }, { "question": "Does it help with skin?", "answer": "Silk is a smooth, breathable fibre and skin glides over it rather than dragging. We do not make any claims beyond that, since the comfort of the surface is what we can describe accurately. How it feels is best judged by sleeping on it.", "source": "Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-zip/" }, { "question": "What is the thread count?", "answer": "The listed thread count is 600. For silk, momme weight is generally the more useful number, since it tells you how much silk is actually in the fabric.

Heat and tumbling are hard on silk fibres and will shorten the life of the fabric.

Never apply a hot iron directly to the silk face. In most cases a light press is all that is needed, since silk naturally drapes smooth.", "source": "Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-zip/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Most people wash their pillowcase once a week, the same as the rest of their bedding. If you use heavy night creams or hair products, you may prefer to wash it more often.

It is one reason a 22 momme silk pillowcase is a popular choice in warmer months. It still works through winter, since the fabric adapts to your body temperature rather than insulating heavily.", "source": "Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-zip/" }, { "question": "Can I use it on a standard or king pillow?", "answer": "This one is cut for a queen pillow at 76.2 cm by 50.8 cm.

For a neat fit, use it on a queen pillow.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Fish Tail Print", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-pillowcase-fish-tail-print/" }, { "question": "How much does it weigh?", "answer": "The item weight is listed as 100 g.

The print gives it immediate appeal to a child, and the silk makes it feel like a step up from ordinary bedding. It posts easily too.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Fish Tail Print", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-pillowcase-fish-tail-print/" }, { "question": "What colours are available?", "answer": "This listing is the fish tail print.

You will need your own queen pillow, and a standard polyester, feather or latex queen pillow will all work inside it.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Fish Tail Print", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-pillowcase-fish-tail-print/" }, { "question": "Can I use it over a feather pillow?", "answer": "Yes. The recommended use noted in the specification includes feathered pillow protection, and the zip closure keeps everything contained. If the pillow sheds a lot, a thin cotton protector underneath is a sensible extra step.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Fish Tail Print", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-pillowcase-fish-tail-print/" }, { "question": "Does silk get hot in summer?", "answer": "Silk feels cool when you first lie on it and does not trap heat the way heavy brushed fabrics do. Many people find it one of the more comfortable options through warm months. Room temperature and bedding weight matter more overall.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Fish Tail Print", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-pillowcase-fish-tail-print/" }, { "question": "How should I store spare cases?", "answer": "Keep them clean, dry and folded in a drawer or a breathable bag, away from direct sunlight.

If a thread pulls, do not cut it. Gently work the thread back through from the inside with a blunt needle so the weave stays intact.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Fish Tail Print", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-pillowcase-fish-tail-print/" }, { "question": "How long does delivery take?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier from Australian warehouses, and most arrive in 5 to 10 working days.

A 19 momme case is lighter and a little cooler to the touch, so the best 22 momme silk pillowcase choice depends on whether you prefer substance or a thinner feel.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "What is Grade 6A mulberry silk?", "answer": "Grade 6A refers to the long, even silk filaments used in the yarn, which produce a smoother and more uniform fabric.

Most queen pillows sold in New Zealand fall close to that size. If your pillow is unusually deep or oversized, measure it first.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Will it fit a standard pillow instead of a queen?", "answer": "A standard pillow is shorter, so the case will be loose at one end. It will still work, but the fit will not be snug and the surface may wrinkle more. For the best queen silk pillowcase fit, match the pillow to the case size.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "Light grey, in a plain solid with no pattern. It is a neutral shade that sits comfortably with white, cream, charcoal or coloured bedding.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Is both sides silk, or is one side cotton?", "answer": "Both sides are 22 momme 100% mulberry silk. Some cheaper cases use a cotton or polyester backing, which means half the case does not feel like silk.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "What is the thread count?", "answer": "The fabric is listed at 800 thread count. With silk, thread count is less important than momme weight, but a high count does indicate a fine, closely woven surface.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "How does it close?", "answer": "With a hidden zipper set into the seam. The zip keeps the pillow inside the case and is positioned so the teeth are not against your skin.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Why does a hidden zipper matter?", "answer": "Envelope closures let the pillow slide out over time, and an exposed zip can end up under your cheek. A hidden zip solves both problems and keeps the top of the case as an unbroken silk surface, which is what people look for in the best hidden zipper pillowcase.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "How much does the pillowcase weigh?", "answer": "163 g for the case on its own. That weight is consistent with a 22 momme silk case in queen size.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Does silk feel cool or warm?", "answer": "Silk feels cool to the touch when you first lie down and tends to feel less clammy than cotton through the night. How warm your bed feels overall still depends mostly on your duvet and the room temperature.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Is silk good for long hair?", "answer": "Hair slides over silk with less friction than it does over cotton, so it catches and tugs less. Many people with long hair buy a silk case for exactly that reason. We do not make any claim about hair growth or condition.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Will it stop me waking up with pillow creases?", "answer": "Skin moves across silk more easily than across cotton, so the fabric drags less on your face overnight. Whether that changes how your skin looks in the morning varies from person to person.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash only, in cool water with a gentle detergent made for delicate fabrics.

Avoid steaming it directly on the silk face.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Every one to two weeks suits most people, or more often if you use heavy creams or hair products at night. Regular gentle washing is better for the fabric than letting oils build up.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Will the colour fade?", "answer": "Keep it out of direct sun when drying and avoid bleach or harsh detergents, and the light grey should hold well. Sunlight is the main cause of fading in silk.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "Does it come in a gift box?", "answer": "Yes, it is supplied in a gift box as a single piece.

A silk pillowcase is the kind of thing people enjoy but rarely buy for themselves, and light grey avoids any guessing about colour schemes. It is a popular choice as a best silk pillowcase gift for birthdays and Christmas.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Queen)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen/" }, { "question": "How many pillowcases are in the pack?", "answer": "One.

At 22 momme this silk has enough weight to drape well and hold up to repeated washing, without feeling heavy or stiff. It is the weight most people land on for a mulberry silk pillowcase.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcases, Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is it silk on both sides?", "answer": "Yes. The fabric is double-sided 100% mulberry silk, so the underside feels the same as the top. Many cheaper pillowcases use silk on one face only, which you notice the moment you flip the pillow.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcases, Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "What does 600 thread count mean here?", "answer": "Thread count is the number of threads woven into a set area of fabric. At 600 the weave is dense and smooth with no coarse texture. Combined with the 22 momme weight it gives the fabric its fluid, cool feel.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcases, Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "How does the pillowcase close?", "answer": "There is a concealed zipper along one edge. It holds the pillow firmly inside so it cannot creep out overnight, and it sits flat so the closure stays out of sight. This is generally more secure than an envelope flap.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcases, Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Will it fit my pillow?", "answer": "It suits a standard queen pillow at roughly 75 by 50 cm. A very plump or over-filled pillow may feel tight, and a slim pillow will leave a little slack. Check your pillow dimensions against the 75 x 50 cm measurement before you order.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcases, Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Why is a silk pillowcase smoother than cotton?", "answer": "Silk fibres are long and smooth, while cotton fibres are shorter and have a rougher surface at a microscopic level. Hair and skin slide across silk with less friction than they do across cotton. That is why the fabric feels slippery when you first touch it.", "source": "Light Grey 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcases, Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/light-grey-22-momme-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is this the best silk pillowcase for hair?", "answer": "What silk does is reduce the drag between your hair and the fabric as you move at night, which means less pulling and tangling.

A pressing cloth adds an extra layer of safety if your iron runs hot.", "source": "Navy Blue 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/navy-19-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-hidden-zip/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Once a week suits most people, or more often if you use heavy night creams or hair oils. Regular gentle washing is better for the fabric than letting product build up.", "source": "Navy Blue 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Queen with Hidden Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/navy-19-momme-silk-pillowcase-queen-hidden-zip/" }, { "question": "Will it wrinkle?", "answer": "Silk creases a little, especially straight out of the wash.

It will still sit neatly once the pillow is on the bed. If you want a snug fit, match the pillow to the 75 cm length.", "source": "Navy Mulberry Silk Pillowcases Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/navy-mulberry-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Why a hidden zipper rather than an envelope flap?", "answer": "A zipper keeps the pillow fully enclosed, so it does not creep out during the night. Hiding it in the seam means no hard edge sits where your cheek lands. It also makes the case look tidier when the bed is made.", "source": "Navy Mulberry Silk Pillowcases Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/navy-mulberry-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is the zipper noisy?", "answer": "It is a small zip set into the side seam, so once it is closed it stays out of the way.

Machine washing risks snagging, stretching and colour loss, and you lose the care guidance that comes with the product. If you need an easier routine, hand washing a silk pillowcase takes about five minutes.", "source": "Navy Mulberry Silk Pillowcases Queen 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/navy-mulberry-silk-pillowcases-queen-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry them?", "answer": "No. Heat is hard on silk protein fibre and will dull the surface over time.

Silk moves heat and moisture away rather than insulating heavily, so it feels cool in warm weather and comfortable under a winter duvet.

At 30 momme this pillowcase sits well above the 19 and 22 momme cases that make up most of the market. In practice it feels heavier in the hand and drapes more closely over the pillow.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Is this real mulberry silk?", "answer": "Yes, the fabric is 100% mulberry silk woven as charmeuse with a 300 thread count. There is no polyester blend or satin substitute involved.

The shade is consistent across the case since the whole fabric is the same natural tone. It is an easy colour to pair with linen, grey and off-white bedding.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "How does the closure work?", "answer": "There is an offset side-entry envelope opening.

Because the opening is set to the side rather than the end, the pillowcase looks tidy from the front when the bed is made.

This one is silk, a natural protein fibre. Silk breathes differently and feels cooler against the skin than a synthetic satin of similar smoothness.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Does silk feel cold to sleep on?", "answer": "It feels cool to the touch when you first lie down, then settles to your body temperature. Many people describe it as pleasant in warm weather and not chilly in winter.

A gentle machine cycle inside a mesh laundry bag also works.

A small amount of mild detergent made for delicates is all you need.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Will bleach damage it?", "answer": "Yes, avoid bleach entirely, including oxygen bleach boosters.

If you use hair products or heavy night creams, wash it more often. Having a second case on hand makes the rotation easier.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "How long will it last?", "answer": "That depends mostly on how you wash it. A heavier 30 momme fabric generally stands up to regular use better than a thin one, and gentle washing extends the life considerably. Rough machine cycles, hot water and tumble drying are what wear silk out fastest.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Is it good for long hair?", "answer": "Hair slides across silk with less friction than it does across cotton, which is why so many people with long hair look for the best silk pillowcase for long hair. This case gives you a smooth surface on both sides. It will not change your hair, it just reduces the drag.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable as a gift?", "answer": "It works well as one. Silk bedding feels like something people rarely buy for themselves, and the natural white shade suits almost any bedroom.

The weight of a 30 momme case helps here, since the fabric has more body than a thin one. Tucking your top sheet firmly also makes a difference.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "What is a 300 thread count in silk?", "answer": "Thread count describes how many threads are woven into a given area. In silk it is less important than momme, because silk threads vary in thickness, but 300 alongside 30 momme indicates a dense, tightly woven charmeuse. Momme is the figure to compare between silk cases.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Can I use it with a feather pillow?", "answer": "Yes. The envelope closure holds a feather or down pillow neatly, and the tight weave keeps the pillow contained.

It is the classic weave used for silk bedding because it gives that smooth, fluid surface. Both sides here are silk charmeuse.", "source": "Undyed White 30 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase (Standard)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/undyed-white-30-momme-silk-pillowcase-standard/" }, { "question": "Will the colour fade?", "answer": "There is no dye in this fabric, so there is nothing to fade in the usual sense.

A 22 momme silk is a mid to heavy weight for bedding, with enough body to drape smoothly.

You unzip to slide the pillow in, then zip it closed. It keeps the pillow from shifting out during the night.", "source": "White 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, King, Concealed Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/white-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-king-zip/" }, { "question": "Will the zip feel scratchy against my face?", "answer": "The zip sits on the side edge, not across the sleeping surface, and it is covered by the seam.

Regular gentle washing and drying out of direct sun keep white silk looking fresh. Avoid bleach, which damages the fibre.", "source": "White 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, King, Concealed Zip", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/white-22-momme-silk-pillowcase-king-zip/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Once a week suits most people, or more often if you use hair products or sleep warm.

The raised surface holds a little warm air against the neck, which a flat, smooth silk scarf does not do as well.

Woven patterns tend to hold their definition better than prints over time.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "Will it suit men as well as women?", "answer": "Yes. Grey and black geometry is about as unisex as patterns get, and the best silk scarf for men is usually a neutral one in a long shape that tucks inside a coat. Nothing about the styling pushes it one way.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it in spring and autumn, or only winter?", "answer": "Both. The scarf is light enough to wear open over a shirt on a cool morning, and the brushing gives enough warmth for a real winter day under a coat. It is one of the better options if you want the best lightweight winter scarf rather than something heavy.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "How do I tie it?", "answer": "A simple loop (fold in half, pass the ends through the loop) is the easiest and most secure. A loose drape over a coat works for milder days. Silk holds a knot well without slipping out of shape.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "Does silk feel cold when you first put it on?", "answer": "Flat silk can feel cool for a second or two. Brushed silk warms up almost immediately because the raised surface sits against the skin rather than lying flat and smooth.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "Will it snag on a wool coat or a chunky knit?", "answer": "Silk is less likely to catch than wool because the fibre surface is smooth. Be sensible around rough velcro, jewellery clasps and splintered timber, which can pull any fine fabric.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "Can I machine wash it?", "answer": "No. Care is hand wash only. A machine cycle, even a delicate one, puts too much agitation on brushed silk and can flatten the surface.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "How do I hand wash it properly?", "answer": "Use cool water and a small amount of detergent made for delicates or silk.

Never wring it.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey and Black Geometric", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-black-geometric/" }, { "question": "How should I dry it?", "answer": "Lay it flat on a dry towel, out of direct sun and away from heaters.

The tones are muted rather than bright, which makes it easy to pair with navy, charcoal, black and denim. Screens vary, so the shade may read slightly differently in person.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Can men wear this scarf?", "answer": "Yes. A long rectangular shape in grey and blue is one of the more unisex options, and many people looking for the best silk scarf for men end up with exactly this kind of understated piece. It knots neatly inside a coat.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a detergent made for delicates, or have it dry cleaned. Do not bleach, soak or wring it. Press the water out in a towel and dry it flat away from sun and heat.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine?", "answer": "We do not recommend it. Machine agitation stresses silk fibres and can dull the brushed surface. Hand washing or dry cleaning is the safer route and keeps the scarf looking right for longer.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Will it shrink?", "answer": "Silk can tighten if it meets hot water or a hot dryer. Stick to cool water, skip the tumble dryer entirely and dry it flat. Treated that way, it should hold its shape.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "Yes, but use a cool setting and press on the reverse side with a thin cloth between the iron and the silk. Avoid steam blasts directly onto the brushed face. Most of the time a hang in a steamy bathroom is enough to drop creases.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Does the brushed surface pill?", "answer": "Any brushed fabric can fuzz slightly where it rubs against a rough coat collar or a bag strap. Gentle handling and careful washing reduce it. If a few loose fibres appear, lift them off rather than pulling them.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "How should I store it?", "answer": "Fold it loosely or roll it and keep it in a drawer or the gift box. Avoid narrow hangers, which can leave marks. Keep it out of direct sunlight, since prolonged light can fade silk over time.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Is silk a good choice for travel?", "answer": "It packs very small and weighs almost nothing, which is why many people rate silk as the best silk wrap for travel. Roll it rather than folding it hard to avoid set-in creases. It doubles as a neck scarf and a light shoulder cover on a cool flight.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it in warmer months?", "answer": "Yes. Silk is breathable, so it does not trap heat the way a heavy synthetic does.

That shape suits looping, knotting and draping over a coat rather than the folded-triangle styles you get from squares.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "What is the best way to knot it?", "answer": "The simplest is the loop knot. Fold it in half, put it around your neck, then pull the loose ends through the loop. For a looser look, drape it open down the front of your coat and leave it unknotted.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Will it work with a suit or office wear?", "answer": "Yes. The matte finish and muted colours make it one of the easier options if you want a restrained office silk scarf. It sits flat inside a jacket collar and does not shout.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Does it come in a gift box?", "answer": "Yes, it is supplied in a gift box, so it is ready to give without extra wrapping.

The boxed presentation helps too.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "What size person does it suit?", "answer": "Scarves are not sized by body, so one length fits most adults. A longer scarf simply gives more wrapping options on a smaller frame and a cleaner single drape on a taller one.", "source": "Brushed Mulberry Silk Scarf in Grey Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brushed-mulberry-silk-scarf-grey-blue/" }, { "question": "Can children wear it?", "answer": "It is made as an adult accessory.

That gives you enough fabric to fold into a triangle or roll into a band, without the bulk of a large shawl. Small variation of a centimetre or two between pieces is normal with hemmed silk.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Is this a big scarf or a small one?", "answer": "It sits in the middle. A 70cm square is larger than a pocket square and much smaller than a 90cm or 110cm wrap. Most people find it the easiest size to actually wear day to day, which is why the best 70cm silk scarf often becomes the one that never goes back in the drawer.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it as a neck scarf?", "answer": "Yes, that is the most common use. Roll it along the diagonal into a narrow band and tie a simple knot or a loose bow at the front or side. You can also fold it into a triangle and knot the ends behind your neck for a softer, wider look.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Does it work as a hair scarf?", "answer": "It does. Fold it into a band and tie it over the crown, or knot it at the nape for a headband effect. Silk moves over hair with less friction than cotton, so a silk hair scarf tends to stay in place without catching.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can I tie it to a handbag?", "answer": "Yes, and it is one of the quickest ways to freshen a plain bag. Loop it through the base of the handle and tie a short knot or small bow, letting the tails hang. A silk bag scarf also lifts a neutral tote without you having to change anything you are wearing.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Is the pattern printed on both sides?", "answer": "No, the design is printed on one side. The reverse shows a lighter version of the same pattern, which is standard for printed silk.

Machine agitation can stress the hem and the weave, so wash it on its own in cool water below 30 degrees Celsius.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "How should I dry it?", "answer": "Press the water out gently between your hands or a towel, never wring it. Then dry it flat or hang it somewhere shaded with good airflow.

Iron it while slightly damp if you can, and use a thin cloth between the iron and the silk if your iron runs hot. Avoid steam blasts directly onto the print.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can I dry clean it instead?", "answer": "Yes, dry cleaning is an accepted alternative to hand washing. If you are unsure, tell the cleaner it is silk with a printed surface so they use a gentle process.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can I bleach it or use stain remover?", "answer": "Do not bleach it. Harsh stain removers can strip printed colour unevenly. For a small mark, dab with cool water and a little mild detergent, working from the outside of the mark inwards.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Will the print fade?", "answer": "Printed silk holds colour well when it is washed cool and kept out of long direct sun. The main causes of fading are hot water, bleach, and drying on a sunny line. Follow the care steps and it should stay bright.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Does it wrinkle easily?", "answer": "Light silk creases when it is folded hard, but the creases usually drop out when the scarf hangs for a while. Rolling it rather than folding it for storage helps. A quick low iron sorts anything stubborn.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for summer?", "answer": "Yes. The light weight means it adds detail without adding warmth, which is exactly what people want from the best silk scarf for summer. It is also easy to take off and stuff in a bag when the day heats up.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Will it keep me warm in winter?", "answer": "Not really. This is a styling scarf rather than a thermal layer. In colder months people usually wear it tucked inside a coat collar or over a knit for colour, with a heavier scarf for actual warmth.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Does it suit older or younger wearers?", "answer": "Both. A square silk scarf is one of the most age-neutral accessories there is, because the way you tie it sets the tone. A tight neck knot reads classic, a loose bandana reads casual, and a hair tie reads relaxed.", "source": "Lightweight Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/lightweight-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can men wear it?", "answer": "Yes. Rolled thin and tucked inside an open collar, a square silk scarf works well as a neckerchief.

Silk is one of the most popular fabrics for hair wraps because hair slides over the smooth surface instead of catching on it. Folded into a triangle it covers most of the head, and rolled into a band it works as a headband or ponytail tie.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Square Scarf 21 Inch", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-square-scarf-21-inch/" }, { "question": "Is it big enough to cover all of my hair?", "answer": "For short to medium hair, yes, folded into a triangle and tied at the back or under the chin.

Wrap it around the base of a bag handle, or tie a simple bow through the hardware ring. The slim width means the handle does not become bulky in your hand.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Twill Handbag Scarf in Dark Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-twill-handbag-scarf-dark-blue/" }, { "question": "Will it work on any handbag?", "answer": "It works on most. Any bag with a handle, a strap loop or a hardware ring will take it.

It works as a ponytail wrap, a bun tie, or a half-up ribbon. Many people buy a silk hair ribbon specifically because silk is smoother than cotton and hair slides across it rather than catching.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Twill Handbag Scarf in Dark Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-twill-handbag-scarf-dark-blue/" }, { "question": "Is silk better than a cotton hair tie?", "answer": "Silk has a smoother surface, so there is less friction when hair moves across it.

Thread it through, tie a flat knot or a bow at the front or side, and leave the tails hanging.

The design is digitally printed on one side, and the small square size is the classic neckerchief format.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "How big is 53 x 53 cm in practice?", "answer": "It is roughly 21 x 21 inches, about the size of a large handkerchief or a small bandana. Folded on the bias it makes a strip you can wrap once around the neck and tie, with enough length left for a neat knot.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "What is mulberry silk?", "answer": "Mulberry silk comes from silkworms raised on mulberry leaves, which produces long, even filaments. Those long fibres are what give the fabric its smooth surface and fluid drape compared with shorter, coarser silk types.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Is it really 100% silk?", "answer": "Yes, the scarf is described as 100% pure mulberry silk with no blended fibres.

What is confirmed is that the fabric is 100% pure mulberry silk and that the scarf is light and breathable in the hand.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Is the print on both sides?", "answer": "No, the design is printed on one side only. The reverse shows the quieter back of the printed silk, which is standard for single-sided printed scarves and is only visible in parts of most knots.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Will the colours look as bright in person?", "answer": "Digital printing gives clear lines and saturated colour on silk, so the front face reads strongly. Screen calibration varies, so expect a close match rather than a perfect pixel-for-pixel one.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Is this a good size for a first silk scarf?", "answer": "It is probably the easiest size to start with. A 53 cm square is small enough that knots stay tidy, which makes it one of the best small square scarf options if you have not worn silk before.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "How do I tie it as a neckerchief?", "answer": "Fold the square corner to corner into a triangle, then roll or fold the long edge up in bands until you have a strip. Wrap it once around your neck and tie a simple knot or a loose square knot slightly off centre.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it in my hair?", "answer": "Yes. Fold it into a strip and tie it around a bun or ponytail base, or use it as a headband across the crown. It is one of the better silk hair scarf sizes because it holds a knot without a long tail hanging down.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep with it on my hair?", "answer": "You can tie it over your hair at night if the knot is comfortable, and many people do. We only make material claims here, so we will say the surface is smooth and hair slides over silk with less friction than over cotton.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Does it work on a handbag?", "answer": "It does. Tie it in a loose bow around the base of a handle, or thread it through and knot it so the printed side faces out. A small square is the right scale for that, where a large scarf overwhelms the bag.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Will it fit under a shirt collar?", "answer": "Yes. Folded into a narrow bias strip it sits flat enough to tuck under most collars without bunching, which is one reason the 53 cm square has stayed popular as a work accessory.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Is it warm enough for winter?", "answer": "It is a style accessory rather than a warmth layer. Silk takes on body heat quickly and feels pleasant at the neck, but for real cold you would want a wool or heavy silk wrap over the top.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it in summer?", "answer": "Yes, and that is one of its strengths. Silk is light and breathable, so a thin square at the neck or as a headscarf feels far less stifling than a cotton bandana on a hot day.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash it alone in cool water below 30 degrees Celsius with a gentle detergent, or have it dry cleaned.

Iron it while slightly damp if you can, ideally on the reverse side or under a thin cotton cloth, and keep the iron moving rather than resting it in one spot.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Will it shrink?", "answer": "Washed as directed in cool water it should hold its size. Hot water, machine agitation and tumble drying are what cause silk to shrink and lose its hand, so avoid all three.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "What if it gets a water mark?", "answer": "Silk can show water spots if a single drop dries on its own. The usual fix is to dampen the whole scarf evenly, press out the water and let it dry flat, which evens the surface out again.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Will the print fade?", "answer": "Keep it out of direct sun when drying and away from bleach or harsh detergents, and the colour should stay strong. Sunlight and chlorine are the two main causes of fading on printed silk.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "How should I store it?", "answer": "Store it flat in a drawer or loosely rolled rather than folded hard along the same lines every time. A fabric pouch or tissue keeps it from catching on jewellery and zips.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Does it snag easily?", "answer": "Silk is a fine fibre, so rough rings, watch clasps and velcro are the usual culprits. Slip rings off before tying and the scarf will stay smooth.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Is this suitable as a gift?", "answer": "It works well as one. A pure silk square in a gift box is the kind of present that suits birthdays, Mother's Day, thank-yous and teacher gifts, and the single size means you do not need to guess a fit.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Neckerchief 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-neckerchief-53cm/" }, { "question": "Can men wear it?", "answer": "Yes. The small square is the traditional men's neckerchief size, worn open-necked under a shirt or jacket.

Folded on the diagonal it gives you a triangle wide enough to cover the shoulders a little, and folded into a band it is long enough to wrap most heads comfortably.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Is the size exact?", "answer": "It is close but not to the millimetre.

We do not quote supplier colour codes because they rarely match what you actually see.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Why is the print only on one side?", "answer": "Single-sided printing is standard for silk squares. The dye soaks through enough that the reverse carries a gentler version of the same pattern, which looks good when the scarf is knotted and both faces show.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Will the reverse look unfinished?", "answer": "No. On silk the print bleeds through to give a muted mirror of the design rather than a blank white back. Many people deliberately fold the scarf so a bit of the softer side shows.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "How should I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash it alone in cool water below 30 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent for delicates.

Dry cleaning is suitable and is often the easiest route if the scarf has makeup or perfume on it. Just tell the cleaner it is pure silk.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "How do I dry it?", "answer": "Press the water out gently with a clean towel, never wring or twist it.

If you are unsure, dry cleaning removes the question entirely.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Far less often than you would a shirt. Silk airs out well, so hanging it up after wearing is usually enough, and a proper wash every several wears or when it is actually soiled is plenty.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Is this the best silk hair scarf for sleeping in?", "answer": "It works well as a night wrap because silk is smoother than most cotton, so hair slides over it with less friction.

Fold the square into a strip about five to seven centimetres wide, lay it over the crown and tie it underneath or at the side. The 70 cm width gives you plenty of length to knot.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can I tie it on a handbag?", "answer": "Absolutely, that is one of the most popular uses.

A 70 cm square knots down small enough to sit flat under a collar, and silk adds a layer without the bulk of a wool knit.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Is it warm enough for winter?", "answer": "Silk takes the edge off a cool breeze and traps a little body heat, but it is not a substitute for a wool scarf in cold weather.

The styling changes more than the scarf does, a neat neck knot reads differently from a loose hair wrap.", "source": "Printed Mulberry Silk Scarf 70cm Square", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-mulberry-silk-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Does it come gift boxed?", "answer": "Packaging is not specified in this record, so please do not count on a presentation box.

One face is satin, so it catches light and feels slippery, while the reverse has a slightly drier, finer texture. You get a soft lustre rather than a high gloss.", "source": "Printed Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/printed-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-53cm/" }, { "question": "What is the print?", "answer": "The scarf carries a printed cat motif across the square.

Folded into a triangle and tied over the head with the point at the back, it gives the classic bandana shape.

It also drapes more softly and holds a knot without springing open. Polyester is cheaper and machine washable, but it tends to feel warmer and look flatter.", "source": "Small Square Mulberry Silk Neck Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/small-square-mulberry-silk-neck-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "How does it compare with a cotton bandana?", "answer": "Cotton is more absorbent and more casual. Silk is smoother, so hair and skin slide over it with less friction, and it dresses an outfit up rather than down. For a neat uniform-style knot, the silk square wins on finish.", "source": "Small Square Mulberry Silk Neck Scarf 70cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/small-square-mulberry-silk-neck-scarf-70cm/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it more than once between washes?", "answer": "Yes. Silk does not need washing after every wear unless it has picked up makeup or sweat at the knot.

A 12 momme silk is in the light to mid range, so it drapes softly but still has enough body to hold a knot. Heavier mommes feel more substantial but are less fluid.", "source": "Small Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/small-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-53cm/" }, { "question": "What is a crepe satin weave?", "answer": "Crepe satin is a weave that gives one side a soft satin lustre and the other a slightly more matte, textured face.

In summer it sits lightly at the neck without feeling warm, and in cooler months it tucks under a jacket or coat collar as a layer of colour. It is not a winter wrap, it is an accent scarf.", "source": "Small Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/small-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-53cm/" }, { "question": "How many ways can I wear a 53cm square?", "answer": "Quite a few. Fold it into a triangle and tie it at the throat, roll it into a narrow band for a headband or wrist wrap, loop it through a bag handle, or lay it flat under a shirt collar. Many people treat the best small square silk scarf as a four or five use item rather than a single look.", "source": "Small Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/small-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-53cm/" }, { "question": "Can I use it as a hair scarf?", "answer": "Yes. Fold it into a band and tie it over or around your hair, or wrap it around a ponytail and knot the ends.

You would not use the scarf itself as the only thing holding the ponytail, since silk is slippery by nature.

If you tell us what did not work, we can usually point you to a different size or weight that suits better, for instance a larger square if you wanted more coverage. No one should be stuck with a scarf they will not wear.", "source": "Small Square Mulberry Silk Scarf 53cm", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/small-square-mulberry-silk-scarf-53cm/" }, { "question": "What exactly is this product?", "answer": "It is a square scarf made from 100% pure mulberry silk, measuring 68 x 68 cm. It is sold as a hair scarf but the square shape means it works equally well at the neck or on a bag.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How big is 68cm in practice?", "answer": "Folded corner to corner it gives you a triangle with a long edge of roughly 96cm, which is enough to wrap around an adult head and tie at the nape or on top. It is a middle size, bigger than a small neckerchief and smaller than a large drape scarf.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Is it really 100% silk?", "answer": "Yes, the scarf is described as 100% pure mulberry silk. Mulberry silk comes from silkworms raised on mulberry leaves and is known for long, even fibres and a smooth finish.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "What momme weight is the silk?", "answer": "The momme weight is not specified in this record. If that figure matters to you, treat the scarf as a lightweight silk square and judge by the feel when it arrives.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "What colour does it come in?", "answer": "Colour is not specified in this listing record. Please check the product images and any colour option shown at checkout before ordering.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Why is silk better than cotton for hair?", "answer": "Silk has a smoother surface, so strands slide across it rather than catching. Cotton has more grip and more absorbency, which is why many people swap to silk for anything that sits against the hair for hours.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in it?", "answer": "Yes, plenty of people use a square silk scarf as an overnight hair wrap. Fold it into a triangle, gather your hair in, and tie it firmly enough to stay put without pinching.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How do I stop it sliding off during the night?", "answer": "Tie the knot at the front or top rather than the back, tuck the loose ends under the wrap, and make it snug rather than tight. Some people add a soft hair tie over the top for extra hold.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Is this the best silk hair scarf for curly hair?", "answer": "Curly and coily hair is exactly where a smooth wrap earns its keep, because the fabric does not grab at the curl pattern. The 68cm size gives enough fabric to gather a lot of volume, so it suits curly hair better than smaller squares.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Will it work on short hair?", "answer": "Yes. On short hair the scarf tends to be worn as a tied headscarf, a bandana fold or a wide headband, and there is plenty of fabric to work with.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it as a neck scarf?", "answer": "Absolutely. Fold it into a narrow band or a small square and knot it at the throat. It is one of the main reasons to choose a square over a long rectangle.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "What other ways can I tie it?", "answer": "Try a diagonal headscarf, a rolled headband, a bow around a ponytail, a knotted bandana, or wrapped around a handbag handle. The square shape takes most of the standard ties you will find in a tutorial.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable as a travel scarf?", "answer": "It is. The packed item weighs 50 grams, so it adds almost nothing to a bag, and silk resists creasing more gracefully than many cotton weaves.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Does it get hot to wear?", "answer": "Silk is breathable and this is a lightweight square, so it is comfortable in warm weather and for overnight wear. It is not a winter wrap though, if you want warmth look at a heavier scarf.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How should I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash only, in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates. Swirl gently, do not scrub or soak for long, and rinse until the water runs clear.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine?", "answer": "We do not recommend it. The care instruction for this scarf is hand wash, and machine agitation can dull the surface and stress the hem.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How do I dry it?", "answer": "Press the water out inside a towel, never wring it, then dry flat or hang in the shade. Keep it away from direct sun, radiators and the dryer.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "Yes, on the lowest setting, on the reverse side, while the fabric is slightly damp. Putting a thin cloth between the iron and the silk is a safe habit.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "If you sleep in it, every week or two is reasonable, or sooner if you use oils or leave-in products. For occasional daytime wear, wash it when it needs it rather than on a schedule.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Will hairspray or perfume damage it?", "answer": "Alcohol-based sprays can mark silk and dull the surface. Spray first, let it dry, then put the scarf on.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Does it snag easily?", "answer": "Silk is a fine fibre, so rough jewellery, broken nails and velcro are its enemies. Keep it away from those and it holds up well.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How should I store it?", "answer": "Fold it loosely in a drawer or keep it in a soft pouch. Avoid hanging it on a sharp hook, and keep it out of damp cupboards.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Is this a good gift?", "answer": "It is a safe gift because there is no sizing to get wrong and silk suits most tastes. The small packed size also makes it easy to post or slip into a card envelope sleeve.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Is it one size?", "answer": "Yes, the scarf comes in the single 68 x 68 cm square size. There is no separate small or large version of this item.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "Where is it made?", "answer": "The country of origin is China, which is where most mulberry silk is produced and woven.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "What are the package dimensions?", "answer": "The package measures 24.5 x 18.8 x 2.1 cm and weighs 50 grams, so it posts easily and takes up very little space.", "source": "68cm Square Mulberry Silk Hair Scarf", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/square-mulberry-silk-hair-scarf-68cm/" }, { "question": "How long will delivery take?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier from Australian warehouses and most arrive in 5 to 10 working days.

Each one is about 6 x 6 x 1 cm, and the whole pack weighs 14.5 grams.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What is the material?", "answer": "The listed material is silk. The exact silk percentage and momme weight are not specified in this record.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are all four the same colour?", "answer": "Yes. The stated colour is brown for all four pieces in the pack.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Why choose silk over a normal elastic?", "answer": "Silk has a smooth surface, so hair slides across it with less friction than cotton or a bare rubber band. The wider band also spreads pressure instead of pinching one narrow line of hair.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will these leave a dent in my hair?", "answer": "A wide, soft band creases far less than a thin elastic because the pressure is spread out. How much of a mark you get still depends on how tightly you wrap it and how long you leave it in.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are they suitable for fine hair?", "answer": "Yes. For fine hair, wrap two or three times so the band sits snug. Many people looking for the best scrunchies for fine hair prefer a mid-size scrunchie like this over a very large one.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Do they hold thick hair?", "answer": "They do, with a single or double wrap depending on volume. If you want the best scrunchies for thick hair, go with one wrap for a loose ponytail and two for a secure one.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will they work on curly hair?", "answer": "Yes. The smooth fabric is kinder to curl pattern than a grabby elastic, which is why silk often comes up when people ask about the best scrunchies for curly hair.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in them?", "answer": "Many people do. Tie a loose ponytail or a soft bun on the top of the head so nothing presses against the pillow, and use a single wrap rather than a tight one.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are they good for the gym?", "answer": "They are fine for most workouts. For heavy sweat sessions or anything upside down, double wrap for a firmer hold, then rinse and air dry afterwards.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How tight is the hold?", "answer": "The inner band is elastic and firm. One wrap gives a relaxed hold, two gives a secure one, and three suits very fine or short hair.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What size is each scrunchie?", "answer": "Each one measures roughly 6 x 6 x 1 cm. That is a mid-size scrunchie, not an oversized one.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will one fit comfortably on my wrist?", "answer": "Yes, at that size it sits on the wrist without squeezing. A lot of people keep a spare there all day, which is part of the appeal of the best travel hair ties.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How do I wash them?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Rinse, press out the water gently, reshape and dry flat away from direct heat and sunlight.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I put them in the washing machine?", "answer": "We recommend hand washing. If you must machine wash, use a mesh laundry bag on a cold delicate cycle, but hand washing is gentler and will keep the fabric looking better for longer.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry them?", "answer": "No. Heat is hard on silk and on the elastic inside. Dry flat at room temperature instead.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I iron them?", "answer": "Ironing is not needed. If a scrunchie looks flat after washing, reshape it with your fingers while damp and let it dry.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash them?", "answer": "Every week or two for daily wear, or sooner after a sweaty workout or if you have used styling product. Rotating through all four means each one gets a break.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will the brown fade?", "answer": "Keep them out of direct sunlight and away from hot water and bleach, and the colour should hold well. Dry flat in the shade rather than on a sunny windowsill.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Do they snag on jewellery?", "answer": "Silk can catch on rough edges. Keep them clear of velcro, watch clasps and bracelets with open links, and slide them off your wrist before handling anything with hooks.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are these suitable for children?", "answer": "They work for older children with enough hair to hold a ponytail. For small children, supervise use as with any hair accessory.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can men use them?", "answer": "Yes. A mid-size brown scrunchie suits longer hair of any kind and the neutral colour keeps it low key.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Do they make a good gift?", "answer": "They do. Four pieces means you can give the whole pack or split it, and a neutral colour is an easy choice when you are not sure of someone's style. It is one of the simpler scrunchie gift sets to buy for.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What hairstyles do they suit?", "answer": "Ponytails, half-ups, low buns, braided ends and loose top knots. For the best scrunchies for buns, wrap twice and tuck the loose end of the hair under the band.", "source": "Brown Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/brown-mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Is this a 6A grade mulberry silk?", "answer": "The supplier lists the material simply as silk.

Each one is made from 100% mulberry silk with a stretchy elastic band sewn inside the fabric tube.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "What is mulberry silk?", "answer": "Mulberry silk is silk produced by silkworms fed on mulberry leaves, which gives long, even fibres and a smooth, glossy surface. It is the type most often used for silk pillowcases and hair accessories. This product is listed as 100% mulberry silk.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "How big are these scrunchies?", "answer": "They are the large size. The elastic stretches from roughly 10cm to 22cm across, and the silk gather is generous enough to wrap thick hair in one or two turns.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Will they hold thick hair?", "answer": "Yes, that is what the large size is for. Thick or very long hair usually needs just one or two wraps, which keeps the elastic from over-stretching. Many people looking for the best silk scrunchies for thick hair choose a large size for exactly this reason.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Will they stay put in fine hair?", "answer": "They will. Fine or shorter hair simply takes an extra turn of the band, and because the gather is soft it grips the bundle rather than sliding off it.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Are they suitable for curly hair?", "answer": "Yes. The scrunchies are listed as suitable for all hair types including curly and thick. The smooth silk surface means curls are less likely to catch as the scrunchie comes out.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Do silk scrunchies really pull less than normal elastics?", "answer": "Silk has a smoother surface than cotton or most synthetic elastics, so hair slides over it with less friction. That is a fabric property, not a treatment, and it is the main practical reason people switch.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in them?", "answer": "A lot of people do. The wide silk gather is softer against the head than a thin elastic, so it is comfortable if you tie your hair up loosely at night. Keep the tie loose rather than tight for sleeping.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Will they leave a dent in my hair?", "answer": "A loose wrap in a soft, wide scrunchie leaves far less of a mark than a tight thin elastic.

It blends into dark hair, reads as neutral on light hair, matches any outfit and does not show everyday marks the way pale shades do.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Are these one size?", "answer": "Yes, they are a free size. The stretch range of about 10cm to 22cm covers most adult hair types and styles without needing to pick a measurement.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Can they be used as a wrist accessory?", "answer": "Yes, and that is part of the appeal of a large scrunchie. The wide silk band sits comfortably on the wrist instead of digging in like a thin elastic.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Are they suitable for children?", "answer": "The listing describes them as adult. The size would work on older children with plenty of hair, but very young children are better with something smaller and sturdier.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "How do I wash them?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent meant for delicates.

Most of the time reshaping while damp is enough.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Will the black colour run?", "answer": "Wash the set separately the first time in cool water as a precaution, which is standard practice with any dark dyed fabric. Avoid hot water and bleach entirely.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "How long will they last?", "answer": "That depends on how often each one is worn and how it is washed. Rotating three scrunchies and hand washing in cool water helps the fabric and elastic last considerably longer than daily use of a single one.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Will the elastic stretch out?", "answer": "All elastic relaxes over time. Using the fewest wraps needed and avoiding hot water slows it down. The large size helps because it does not need to be stretched to its limit on thick hair.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I use them with wet hair?", "answer": "You can, though silk takes longer to dry than a synthetic elastic. If you tie up wet hair often, let the scrunchie air dry fully afterwards before it goes back in a bag.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Do they work with hair products?", "answer": "Oils, sprays and creams will transfer onto any hair tie. Wash the scrunchie more often if you use heavy products, and let it dry flat.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Is this a good gift?", "answer": "Yes. A black silk scrunchies 3 pack is a safe present because there is no size or shade to guess, and three pieces feels like a set rather than a single small item.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I split the pack as separate gifts?", "answer": "You can. Each scrunchie is a complete item on its own, so a set of three works as three small gifts, or as stocking fillers alongside something larger.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "How do these compare with cotton scrunchies?", "answer": "Cotton has more texture and more grip, which can mean more friction when the scrunchie comes out. Silk is smoother and has a glossier look, which is why people who want soft hair ties for sleeping usually prefer it.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "How should I store them?", "answer": "Keep them somewhere dry and away from sharp objects like keys or zips that could snag the silk. A small pouch or a drawer compartment works well.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "What are the package dimensions and weight?", "answer": "The package measures 19.9 x 15.1 x 1.7 cm and weighs 50 grams. That makes it easy to post and easy to slip into a gift box.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "How long does delivery take?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier and most arrive within 5 to 10 working days.

As long as the scrunchies are unused and unwashed you can return them, and we are happy to talk through sizing or alternatives before you send anything back.", "source": "Large Black Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-black-silk-scrunchies-3-pack/" }, { "question": "What exactly is in this pack?", "answer": "You get two large silk scrunchies, one in black and one in coffee brown. Both are made from 100% mulberry silk over a stretchy inner band. They arrive ready to wear with no assembly or trimming needed.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Is the silk real mulberry silk?", "answer": "Yes, the scrunchies are made from 100% mulberry silk. Mulberry silk is the long fibre silk most often used for pillowcases and scarves because of its even, glossy surface. The momme weight is not specified in this record.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "What size are the scrunchies?", "answer": "They are a large, free size design. The band stretches from roughly 10cm to 22cm across, which fits most adult hair thicknesses and ponytail sizes. There is only one size in this pack rather than a mix of small and large.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Will they hold thick hair?", "answer": "Yes, the inner elastic is a strong stretch band rather than a thin thread. Thick hair usually needs two or three wraps, which the stretch range allows. If your hair is very heavy you may prefer two wraps for a firmer hold.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Do they work on fine or thin hair?", "answer": "They do. For finer hair you simply wrap the scrunchie an extra time to take up the slack. The silk surface helps the scrunchie grip the hair gently without digging in.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Are these good for curly hair?", "answer": "Curly hair tends to catch on rough bands, and silk gives it less to catch on. The wide, smooth surface spreads pressure over more of the curl instead of pinching one spot. Many people with curls use a large scrunchie for a loose pineapple at night.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in them?", "answer": "Yes, large silk scrunchies are a common choice for sleeping because they are soft and have no metal join. A loose high bun or a low side twist is usually the most comfortable. Keep the wrap loose so nothing presses into your scalp against the pillow.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Will they leave a crease in my hair?", "answer": "A wide, soft scrunchie puts less of a sharp line in hair than a thin elastic does, especially if you avoid pulling it very tight. Silk is smooth so the hair sits against it rather than being gripped. Results vary with hair type and how long the hair is tied up.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Do they pull hair out when I remove them?", "answer": "Silk slides over hair with less friction than cotton or exposed elastic, so there is usually less snagging on the way out. Always ease a scrunchie out rather than yanking it. That habit matters as much as the material.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "What are the two colours like in person?", "answer": "Black is a plain, deep black with the natural sheen of silk. Coffee is a warm mid brown, closer to a milky coffee than a dark chocolate. Screens vary, so expect small differences in tone.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Why only neutral colours?", "answer": "Black and coffee are the two shades that work with the widest range of hair colours and clothing. They read as an accessory rather than a statement. If you want brighter tones, look at the other sets in the silk scrunchies range.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Are these suitable as a gift?", "answer": "They make a good small gift because they are useful, neutral and arrive as a tidy pair. People often add them to a birthday box, a Christmas stocking or a thank you card. The best silk scrunchies gift sets tend to be the ones that get used daily.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Can men use them?", "answer": "Yes. Anyone with hair long enough to tie back can use a silk scrunchie, and the black one in particular is very plain. The large size suits longer hair tied into a low bun.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Are they safe for kids?", "answer": "The listing describes them as an adult item. Older children with long hair can certainly use them, but small children should be supervised with any hair accessory. The elastic is covered and there are no beads or hard fittings.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "How do I wash them?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent, swirl gently and rinse. Press the water out without wringing, reshape the loop and dry flat away from heat and direct sun. Avoid bleach and fabric softener.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Can they go in the washing machine?", "answer": "If you prefer the machine, put them in a small mesh laundry bag and use a delicate cold cycle. Then air dry flat. Hand washing is still gentler and will keep the sheen longer.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry them?", "answer": "No, tumble drying is not recommended for silk. The heat can dull the surface and shorten the life of the elastic. Flat drying in a shaded spot takes only a few hours.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Do I need to iron them?", "answer": "Usually not, since reshaping while damp is enough. If you want them crisper, use the lowest setting on your iron with a cloth between the iron and the silk. Never press a hot iron directly onto silk.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash them?", "answer": "Every week or two is plenty for most people, or more often if you use styling products or wear them to the gym. Rotating the two scrunchies spreads the wear. Washing also keeps the silk looking fresh rather than dull.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "How long will they last?", "answer": "That depends on how often you wear them and how you wash them. Gentle washing, flat drying and swapping between the two will give you the longest life. Elastic in any hair tie relaxes over time, which is why a two pack is handy.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Will the silk snag on jewellery?", "answer": "Silk is a fine fibre, so rings with rough prongs or a watch clasp can catch it. Slip the scrunchie on and off with care if you wear chunky rings. Keeping it off a Velcro cuff is also a good idea.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it on my wrist?", "answer": "Yes, and the wide band is more comfortable on the wrist than a thin elastic. It is less likely to leave a deep mark after a few hours. Just be mindful of watch and bracelet edges.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Does the colour run when washed?", "answer": "Wash the black and coffee separately the first time or two, and use cool water. Dark dyes on any fabric can release a little colour at first. Do not soak them with light coloured items.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "What are the pack dimensions?", "answer": "The package measures 14.4 x 10 x 1.5 cm and weighs 30 grams. That makes it easy to post and easy to slip into a bag or a gift box. The scrunchies themselves are a large free size.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Is there a metal join in the band?", "answer": "The scrunchies use a covered elastic inside a silk tube. There is no exposed metal clasp described in this record. That is part of why they feel comfortable to sleep in.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "Where are they made?", "answer": "The country of origin is not specified in this record.

If the issue is hold rather than quality, tell us your hair type and we will point you to a smaller or firmer option. We would rather help you find the right tie than have one sit unused in a drawer.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 2 Pack (Black & Coffee)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-2-pack-black-coffee/" }, { "question": "What exactly comes in this pack?", "answer": "You get three large silk scrunchies, one black, one apricot and one champagne. They are sold as a 3 count pack of one. Each scrunchie is the same size and style, only the colour changes.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "What are they made from?", "answer": "The listing specifies silk as the material type. The inner band is elastic, sewn inside the fabric tube so it does not touch your hair directly. The exact momme weight and weave are not specified in this record.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "How big are the scrunchies?", "answer": "They are described as large, with a stretch range of roughly 10 cm to 22 cm around. The gathered fabric makes the loop look full even when it is relaxed. Packaging for the set measures 15.8 x 12.4 x 2.6 cm.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Will they fit thick hair?", "answer": "Yes, the stretch range goes up to about 22 cm, which handles a thick ponytail or a full bun. Thick hair usually takes one loop plus a twist rather than three wraps. The listing names thick and curly hair among the suited types.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Will they stay put in fine hair?", "answer": "Fine hair will need two or three wraps to feel secure, which is normal for any scrunchie. The fabric gathers tighten as you wrap, so the hold builds with each pass. If you prefer a very firm grip, a smaller scrunchie may suit fine hair better.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Why choose silk over a normal elastic?", "answer": "Silk has a smooth surface, so hair slides over it with less friction than over cotton or a bare rubber band. The hold is spread across a wide band of fabric rather than a thin line. Many people find that more comfortable over a long day.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Do these leave a dent in your ponytail?", "answer": "Because the pressure is spread over a wider section of hair, the mark tends to be much softer than the sharp crease a thin elastic leaves. How much shows depends on hair type, how tight you wrap and how long it was tied. Looser wraps leave less of a line.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in them?", "answer": "Plenty of people do, usually in a loose bun or a low, soft ponytail. The large size means there is no hard knot pressing into the back of your head. Keep the wrap loose so nothing pulls while you move.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Are these the best silk scrunchies for curly hair?", "answer": "Curly hair tends to get on well with a smooth, wide tie, and that is exactly what this set is. The large size lets curls sit in the loop without being compressed into a tight point. Use the fewest wraps that still feel secure.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "How do I wash them?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates. Do not soak, bleach or scrub. Press the water out between a towel, reshape the loop and dry flat.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Can they go in the washing machine?", "answer": "We do not recommend it. Machine agitation and spin cycles are hard on silk and on the sewn elastic inside. Hand washing takes a minute and keeps the fabric looking better for longer.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry them?", "answer": "No. Heat is not kind to silk or to elastic. Lay them flat on a towel away from direct sun and a radiator and they will dry quickly on their own.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash them?", "answer": "Every week or two is fine for daily wear, or sooner if you use styling products or wear one to the gym. Rotating between the three in the set means each one gets a rest. Rotating also spreads the wear evenly.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Will the colours run?", "answer": "Wash each colour separately the first time, especially the black, and use cool water. That is standard practice for any dyed silk item. After the first wash they can usually be washed together in a small basin.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Do they lose their stretch?", "answer": "All elastic relaxes over time with wear and washing. Hand washing in cool water and drying flat slows that down. Avoid storing them stretched over a jar or a bottle, which pulls the band out of shape.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Are these suitable for kids?", "answer": "The listing gives an adult age range description. The large size is generous for a small head of hair, though an older child with thick hair may find it works fine. Supervise younger children with any hair accessory.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Can men use them?", "answer": "Yes. The black one in particular is a plain, neutral tie that works for a man growing his hair out or tying back a bun. There is nothing about the construction that suits one person over another.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Do they work as a wrist accessory?", "answer": "They do, and the large size sits comfortably on a wrist without pinching. That is part of the appeal of a wide fabric band. Just keep in mind that wrist wear picks up skin oils and hand cream, so wash a little more often.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Are these good for the gym?", "answer": "The smooth surface and wide hold suit a high ponytail during exercise.

The black one is the most practical choice for workouts.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Is this set a good gift?", "answer": "It is one of the easier small gifts to get right. Three colours means the recipient has choice, and a hair tie has no sizing problem. Many people buy the set, keep one and give the other two away.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Which colour should I pick if I can only use one?", "answer": "You get all three in this set, so the question is which you will reach for first. Black suits dark hair and most outfits, apricot warms up blonde and light brown, and champagne is a soft neutral with a bit of shine for dressier days.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Are these the best mulberry silk scrunchies for everyday wear?", "answer": "The combination of a large, forgiving size and a three colour set makes them easy to wear daily. The smooth surface is the main reason people switch from standard elastics. Whether they are the right pick depends on how firm you like your hold.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "How should I store them?", "answer": "Keep them flat or loosely coiled in a drawer or a small pouch. Do not stretch them over a bottle or a door handle for storage, as that tires the elastic. Keeping them out of direct sun protects the colour.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Can I iron them?", "answer": "If a scrunchie looks crushed after washing, a cool iron on the reverse of the fabric will relax it. Never press directly on a hot setting. Most of the time reshaping while damp is enough.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "Will they catch on fine or damaged hair?", "answer": "The whole point of a smooth silk surface is that there is very little for hair to catch on, which is why silk hair ties are popular with people who have fine hair. Use a gentle wrap rather than pulling it tight. Remove it by easing it out rather than yanking.", "source": "Large Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Black, Apricot, Champagne)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/large-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-black-apricot-champagne/" }, { "question": "What is the weight of the pack?", "answer": "The package weight is listed as 30 grams, which includes the three scrunchies and the packaging.

The elastic stretching to about 20 cm gives you enough room to wrap thick hair once or twice. If your hair is very dense, one wrap usually holds a ponytail and two holds a bun.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack (Green, Grey, Navy, Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack-green-grey-navy/" }, { "question": "What about fine or short hair?", "answer": "Fine hair suits this size well because you can take three wraps without the band feeling bulky. Short hair that reaches a ponytail will hold fine.

How much crease you get still depends on how tightly you wrap it and how long you leave it in.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack (Green, Grey, Navy, Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack-green-grey-navy/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in one?", "answer": "Many people use a silk scrunchie overnight in a loose plait or a soft bun on the crown.

A wide, smooth band is a common choice for curls because it holds without cutting into the hair shaft. Keep the tie loose and wrap fewer times to protect the curl pattern.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Hair Ties 4 Pack (Green, Grey, Navy, Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-hair-ties-4-pack-green-grey-navy/" }, { "question": "Do they work for a bun or top knot?", "answer": "They do. Two to three wraps generally secures a bun on medium hair, and one to two on thick hair.

The listed hair type is all, and a mid-size scrunchie handles thick hair well because the fabric spreads the pressure across a wider band. With very thick hair you may want two loops rather than three for a tight hold. These are a reasonable pick if you are after silk hair ties for thick hair.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Are they any good for fine hair?", "answer": "Fine hair benefits most from a smooth surface, because there is less to catch on. Wrap three times for a firm hold and the band will still sit comfortably. Many people looking for silk scrunchies for fine hair choose silk for exactly this reason.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Do they work on curly hair?", "answer": "They do. A silk outer slides over coils instead of gripping them, which helps when you take the tie out. For silk scrunchies for curly hair, keep the loop a little looser so you do not flatten the curl pattern at the base.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Can children use these?", "answer": "Yes, the size suits younger hair as well as adult hair.

Tie hair in a loose plait or a soft bun on top of the head and the scrunchie will stay put without digging in. Silk scrunchies for sleeping are popular because the tie comes out easily in the morning.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Why pick silk over a normal elastic?", "answer": "A bare elastic has a rough surface and a very small contact area, so it concentrates pull in one spot. A silk scrunchie spreads the hold over a wider band and the silk surface itself is smoother than cotton or rubber. It is the main reason people switch to mulberry silk hair ties.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Will they stay in during exercise?", "answer": "For a walk, a gym session or a yoga class they hold fine with two or three loops. For heavy running or sport with a lot of head movement, many people prefer a sports tie and keep the silk one for the rest of the day. It depends on how much hair you are holding.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Do the colours bleed in the wash?", "answer": "Wash each colour separately in cool water the first few times, especially the pink and the brown.

Direct high heat can mark silk. Most of the time a gentle hand reshape while damp is enough.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "How long will they last?", "answer": "That depends on how often you wear and wash them. Hand washing, drying flat and keeping them away from hot styling tools makes the biggest difference. Rotating the three colours spreads the wear so no single tie takes every day.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Will the elastic loosen over time?", "answer": "All elastic relaxes with use.

If you want zero crease, tie it loosely or go for a low bun. Shaking the hair out after release usually settles it.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 3 Pack (Brown, Black, Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-scrunchies-3-pack-brown-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Will they slip out of my hair?", "answer": "Grip depends on how many times you wrap.

The soft band does not bite into the skin the way a tight elastic can, and at 8 grams for the whole pack you forget it is there.

All four are the same slim size and style.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What are the scrunchies made from?", "answer": "They are made from 100% pure mulberry silk. Mulberry silk is a long-fibre silk with a smooth, even surface. The internal elastic is covered by the silk so it does not touch your hair directly.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How wide is each scrunchie?", "answer": "Each band is roughly 1cm wide, which is why they are described as skinny or slim. That narrow width keeps the tie low-profile in a ponytail. It also means it sits flatter on your wrist than a chunky scrunchie.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How far do they stretch?", "answer": "The stretched diameter runs from about 7cm up to 21cm.

Fine hair often slips out of wide ties, and the slim profile here gives you more wraps for better grip.

A fabric-covered band also spreads pressure over a wider area than a thin rubber band. That is the main practical difference day to day.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will they leave a dent in my hair?", "answer": "A loose wrap in a soft fabric band tends to leave less of a crease than a tight rubber elastic. How much mark you get still depends on how tightly you tie it and how long you leave it in. Wrapping once rather than three times helps.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in them?", "answer": "Plenty of people use silk hair ties as sleep scrunchies because the fabric is soft and the band is light. Tie loosely at the nape or the top of your head so there is no pressure point. If you wake with a headache from any tie, it is wound too tight.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How tight is the elastic?", "answer": "The elasticity is described as suitable for all long hair, thick or thin, so it is a middle ground rather than a very firm gym band. It holds a normal ponytail or bun well. For high-impact sport, a sports-specific tie may suit better.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What colours do I get?", "answer": "Two black, one coffee and one beige. Black goes with everything, coffee is a mid-brown and beige is a soft light neutral. The mix is designed to sit quietly against most hair colours and outfits.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I buy a single colour instead of the mix?", "answer": "This listing is the fixed four-pack mix of two black, one coffee and one beige. Single-colour options are not part of this product. Check the wider silk scrunchies category for other sets.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are these the same as a big puffy scrunchie?", "answer": "No. A standard scrunchie uses much more fabric and sits as a visible ring around the hair. These skinny ones are about 1cm wide and look closer to a slim ribbon band. Choose based on whether you want the tie to be seen or not.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How do I wash them?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates. Do not bleach and do not soak for long periods. Press gently between a towel and dry flat away from heat and direct sun.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can they go in the washing machine?", "answer": "Hand washing is the safer option for silk. If you must machine wash, use a mesh laundry bag on the coldest, gentlest cycle and skip the spin. Never tumble dry them.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash them?", "answer": "Every week or two is fine for daily wear, more often if you use styling products or wear them to the gym. Washing keeps the silk looking fresh and stops oils building up. Rotate between the four so one is always dry.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will the colour run?", "answer": "Wash darker and lighter shades separately the first few times, especially the black against the beige. Use cool water and a short wash. This is standard practice for any dyed silk item.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I iron them?", "answer": "Silk creases less than you might expect on a small item like this. If you want to press one, use a cool iron on the reverse side or hold a steamer slightly away from the fabric. Never apply a hot iron directly.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How long will they last?", "answer": "That depends on how often you wear and wash them. Gentle washing, flat drying and avoiding over-stretching all extend the life of the elastic inside. Rotating between all four spreads the wear.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Will the silk snag on jewellery?", "answer": "Silk is a fine fibre, so rough rings, watch clasps and velcro can pull a thread. Slide the band on and off carefully rather than yanking it. A small pulled thread can often be eased back into place rather than cut.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are these suitable for men?", "answer": "Yes. The neutral colours and slim profile are low-key, and silk hair ties work the same on long hair regardless of who is wearing them. The black ones in particular are very plain.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Are they safe for kids?", "answer": "They are hair ties, so normal supervision rules for small items apply with young children. For older kids and teens the slim size and soft fabric work well for school. Keep them away from babies and toddlers.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Do they work for braids and buns?", "answer": "They do. The slim band finishes a plait neatly without a bulky blob at the end, and it wraps cleanly around a bun. For a messy bun, two wraps usually give the right balance of hold and give.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I wear them on my wrist?", "answer": "Yes, and the narrow width is one of the reasons people like them for that. A slim band marks the skin less than a tight rubber elastic. Many of the best silk hair ties get worn as a quiet wrist accessory between uses.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What size is the packaging?", "answer": "The package measures 14.4 x 10 x 1.2cm and weighs around 30 grams. That makes it easy to slip into a handbag, a gym bag or a travel pouch. It also posts flat.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "Do these make a good gift?", "answer": "They do. A four-pack of neutral silk scrunchies is a safe gift because it does not depend on size or colour matching. It works for birthdays, secret santa, bridesmaid thank-yous and stocking fillers.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "How is delivery handled?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier from Australian warehouses, and most arrive within 5 to 10 working days.

Contact us first and we will guide you through it.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What if they are not right for my hair?", "answer": "If the stretch is too loose or too firm for your hair, or the colours are not what you hoped, get in touch within 14 days of delivery while the set is unused and unwashed. We will sort out a return or help you pick something better suited, such as a wider band or a different set from the silk scrunchies range.", "source": "Skinny Mulberry Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-mulberry-silk-scrunchies-4-pack/" }, { "question": "What exactly is in this pack?", "answer": "You get four skinny silk scrunchies, one each in black, dark green, lake green and peacock blue. They arrive as a single set. The listed material is silk and the item form is scrunchie.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "How wide are the scrunchies?", "answer": "They are the skinny style rather than the big puffy style, so the fabric band is narrow and sits close to the hair. The record does not list an exact measured width for the finished tie. The pack itself measures 11.9 x 8.6 x 1.7 cm.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Will these work on thick hair?", "answer": "Yes. The stretch lets you wrap more times for a thicker ponytail, usually three or four turns. Many people looking for the best silk scrunchies for thick hair prefer the skinny shape because the hold comes from the wraps rather than from fabric bulk.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Are they any good for fine or thin hair?", "answer": "They suit fine hair well, since a slim tie does not drown a small ponytail. Two or three wraps is usually enough. If your hair is very slippery, add one more wrap and keep the final loop snug.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Do they work on curly hair?", "answer": "Curly hair tends to do well with slim ties because they sit at the base of a bun without flattening the curl pattern around it. For a loose pineapple at night, one or two gentle wraps is often plenty. Tighter wrapping gives a firmer daytime hold.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Why choose silk over a cotton or elastic hair tie?", "answer": "Silk is a smooth filament fibre, so hair slides across the surface with less friction than it does over rough cotton or bare rubber. A fabric-covered tie also has no exposed metal crimp. That combination is the main reason people switch.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I sleep in them?", "answer": "Plenty of people do, usually in a loose bun or a low plait. The skinny silk shape is low profile, so it is less likely to press into your head on a pillow than a thick scrunchie. Keep the wrap loose for overnight wear.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "What colours are included again?", "answer": "Black, dark green, lake green and peacock blue. The black is the neutral everyday choice and the other three run from deep green through to a bright blue-green. We never quote supplier colour codes, only the plain colour names.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Is this a 100 percent silk product?", "answer": "The material listed for this item is silk. The record does not specify a percentage breakdown, a momme weight or a weave name, so we do not state those. Everything we publish here comes from the supplied product data.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "What is the momme weight?", "answer": "That is not specified in this record. Momme is a weight measure used for silk fabric, and where a supplier states it we publish it. For this set, only the material type is given.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Where is it made?", "answer": "The country of origin listed is China. Silk production and finishing for hair accessories is very common there. No other manufacturing detail is recorded for this item.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "How do I wash silk scrunchies?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates. Swirl gently, do not scrub or wring, then press the water out with a towel. Dry flat away from direct sun and heat.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I put them in the washing machine?", "answer": "We recommend hand washing to protect the fibre and the elastic inside. If you must machine wash, use a mesh laundry bag on the most delicate cold cycle and never use a dryer. Heat is what ages the elastic fastest.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash them?", "answer": "Every week or two is a reasonable rhythm for a tie you wear daily, and more often if you use hair oils or styling products. Washing in rotation across the four colours means you always have a clean one. That is one of the quiet benefits of the best silk scrunchie set format.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Will the colour run in the wash?", "answer": "Wash the darker colours separately the first time or two, in cool water, as you would with any dyed fabric. Do not soak them for long periods. Dry flat and out of direct sunlight to keep the shade even.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "How long do silk hair ties last?", "answer": "That depends on how hard you pull them and how you wash them. Gentle hand washing, cool water and no heat drying all help. The elastic inside is usually what gives way first, long before the silk itself.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Will they leave a dent in my hair?", "answer": "A slim tie wrapped loosely tends to leave less of a crease than a tight thin elastic. For the softest result, keep the last wrap loose and take it out by easing it off rather than yanking. Many people choose the best skinny silk scrunchies for exactly this reason.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I wear one on my wrist?", "answer": "Yes, and the skinny shape looks tidier on a wrist than a bulky one. Avoid wearing it tight all day, since constant stretch shortens the life of any elastic. Loose on the wrist is the sweet spot.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Are these suitable for the gym?", "answer": "They work for workouts, buns and plaits, and the fabric washes easily after a sweaty session. Rinse in cool water the same day if you can. Rotate between the four so one is always dry.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Do they suit short hair?", "answer": "Short hair can use them for half-up styles, small top knots and front twists. If your hair only just reaches, a single snug wrap usually holds. Shorter layers may still need a clip for the sides.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Are they okay for children?", "answer": "They are a normal fabric hair tie and suit older children who can manage their own hair. As with any small stretchy item, keep them away from babies and toddlers. Supervise younger kids with any hair accessory.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Would this make a good gift?", "answer": "It is a tidy little gift because the four colours cover both neutral and bright, and the pack is small enough to post or slip into a card. It works for birthdays, teacher gifts, secret santa and stocking fillers. A set like this is an easy pick when you want the best silk scrunchies gift set without overthinking it.", "source": "Skinny Silk Scrunchies 4 Pack, Green and Blue", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/skinny-silk-scrunchies-4-pack-green-blue/" }, { "question": "Can I buy more than one pack?", "answer": "Yes, order as many as you like while stock lasts.

A 19 momme silk is heavier and denser than the 12 to 16 momme silk used in many eye masks. In practice that means more fabric body, better drape over the face, and a mask that feels substantial rather than flimsy.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Is this mask real silk?", "answer": "Yes, it is listed as 100% mulberry silk. Mulberry silk is the long-fibre silk produced by silkworms fed on mulberry leaves, and it is the grade most commonly used for bedding and sleepwear. The material feature is recorded as natural.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "How big is the mask?", "answer": "Laid flat it measures 21.5 cm wide, 11 cm from top to bottom, and 0.5 cm thick. That width covers the eye area with room to spare at the sides without reaching your ears. The height is enough to sit above the brow and below the eye socket.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "How heavy is it?", "answer": "It weighs 45 grams. For reference, that is around the weight of a few sheets of A4 paper, so it is genuinely light on the face and adds nothing noticeable to a bag.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Why does it have two straps instead of one?", "answer": "A single band has to be tightened quite firmly to stay put, which concentrates pressure in one narrow line. Two straps split that load, so you get the same security with less squeeze. It also means the mask resists sliding upward when you move during the night.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Are both straps adjustable?", "answer": "Yes, the closure type is listed as adjustable and both straps can be set independently. You can tune the top and bottom tension separately, which helps if you have a smaller or larger head than average, or if you want the mask sitting slightly higher or lower.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Will it stay on if I sleep on my side?", "answer": "The twin strap layout is designed for exactly that. Because the hold comes from two points rather than one, side pressure from a pillow is less likely to lever the mask off your face. Many people looking for the best silk eye mask for side sleepers choose a two-strap design for this reason.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Does it block out all light?", "answer": "It covers the eye area in solid black silk, which cuts out the great majority of ambient light. No soft-fabric mask is a perfect light seal at the bridge of the nose, but a 19 momme weight drapes better than thinner silk and leaves less of a gap.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "Black, in a plain solid pattern. Black is the practical choice for an eye mask because it absorbs rather than reflects stray light, and it does not show wear from makeup or hair product as quickly as a pale colour.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for travel?", "answer": "It is a good travel mask. At 45 grams and half a centimetre thick it folds flat into a carry-on pocket, and the adjustable straps let you loosen it slightly if you are napping upright. A lot of shoppers hunting for the best travel sleep mask land on silk for the weight alone.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Can I use it on a plane?", "answer": "Yes. Cabin lighting is one of the most common reasons people buy an eye mask. The slim profile also means it sits comfortably under a neck pillow or a hood without bulking up.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Does silk feel different to a cotton mask?", "answer": "It does. Silk has a very smooth surface, so your skin and the fine hair at your temples slide across it with less friction than they would on a woven cotton face. It also feels cooler to the touch when you first put it on.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Will it feel hot in summer?", "answer": "Silk is a light, breathable natural fibre and the mask only weighs 45 grams, so it is one of the less warm options for summer sleeping. Anyone shopping for the best lightweight sleep mask usually ends up comparing silk against foam, and silk wins on bulk.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent or gentle soap. Swish it gently, rinse, then press the water out rather than wringing or twisting. Reshape it flat and let it air dry.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the washing machine?", "answer": "Hand washing is the recommended method for this mask. If you do use a machine, a mesh laundry bag on a cold delicate cycle is the safest approach, though hand washing remains kinder to the fibre and the elastic in the straps.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry it?", "answer": "No. Air dry only. Heat is hard on silk and on elastic, so keep it away from the dryer, the radiator and direct sun.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "Should I use fabric softener or bleach?", "answer": "Neither. Bleach damages protein fibres like silk, and softener leaves a residue that dulls the surface. A small amount of mild detergent in cool water is all it needs.", "source": "19 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleeping Mask with Twin Adjustable Straps", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/19-momme-silk-sleeping-mask/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Every one to two weeks is reasonable for regular nightly use, more often if you wear makeup or skincare to bed.

The cups give enough clearance that the fabric should not sit on or flatten extensions while you sleep.

It generally produces a smoother, more uniform fabric.", "source": "Burgundy 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/22-momme-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-burgundy/" }, { "question": "Will it block out light properly?", "answer": "The mask is described as a complete blackout design, using contoured cups and a shaped edge that follows the brow and nose. How well any mask seals depends on your face shape, so results vary slightly between people. The contoured style usually seals better than a flat panel.", "source": "Burgundy 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/22-momme-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-burgundy/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it with lash extensions?", "answer": "Yes, that is one of the main reasons for the 3D contoured shape. The cups hold the fabric off your lashes rather than pressing them against your lids. Many people looking for the best sleep mask for lash extensions choose a contoured style for exactly this reason.", "source": "Burgundy 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/22-momme-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-burgundy/" }, { "question": "Can I open my eyes while wearing it?", "answer": "Yes.

A mask that is cranked down hard will mark any skin, so start loose and tighten only as much as you need. This is the main advantage of a buckle over a fixed elastic.", "source": "Burgundy 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/22-momme-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-burgundy/" }, { "question": "Is it comfortable for side sleepers?", "answer": "The strap is soft and silk-wrapped, so it is not an uncomfortable ridge to lie on.

If you wear makeup to bed occasionally, wash it sooner.

A 19 momme silk is a mid to upper weight for sleepwear and accessories, with enough density to feel substantial and to block light well. Lighter silks can feel flimsy and let more daylight through.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Is this mask suitable for side sleepers?", "answer": "Yes, it is built with side sleeping in mind. The contoured shape holds its form under light pressure, so lying on your side does not push the fabric straight onto your eye. The long strap also sits flatter against the head than a short elastic band.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Will it really block all the light?", "answer": "It is designed for complete blackout, with a generous face area and a shaped nose panel to close the usual gap. How dark it feels will still depend on your face shape and how you set the strap. Most people find the nose contour makes the biggest difference compared with a flat mask.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Can I open my eyes while wearing it?", "answer": "Yes. The 3D contour leaves space over each eye socket, so your lashes are not pressed down and you can blink or open your eyes inside the mask. People who dislike the sensation of fabric touching their eyelids usually prefer this style.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "Black. A dark colour is the usual choice for a blackout mask because it absorbs rather than reflects stray light.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "What is the mask made of?", "answer": "The listed material is silk at 19 momme.

You can set it once to suit your head size and then leave it, which avoids the common problem of over-tightening and waking up with a line across your forehead.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Will it leave marks on my face?", "answer": "Any mask worn for hours can leave a temporary impression, especially if the strap is pulled tight. Setting the strap just snug enough to stay in place usually avoids this. The smooth silk surface tends to mark skin less than textured fabrics.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Does it help with noise?", "answer": "The soft side panels extend towards the ears and muffle some background sound.

It is also listed here as breathable and moisture-wicking, which helps if you tend to feel warm at night. Cotton is cheaper but tends to drag and to let more light through at the same thickness.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Does the mask press on my eyelashes?", "answer": "No, that is the point of the 3D contour.

The mask itself places no pressure on the eye, so it suits people who are sensitive in that area.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a gentle detergent made for delicates, or use a gentle machine cycle inside a mesh laundry bag. Avoid bleach and do not soak it for long periods.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "How do I dry it?", "answer": "Press the water out gently without wringing, then dry it flat and away from direct sun or a heater. Silk weakens with harsh heat, and drying flat helps the contoured shape keep its form.", "source": "Black 19 Momme Silk Eye Mask for Side Sleepers", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/black-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-side-sleepers/" }, { "question": "Can I put it in the dryer?", "answer": "It is better not to.

At 17 grams and under 13 cm square it is one of the easier things to pack, and the adjustable strap lets you snug it up for an upright seat. Many travellers rate a domed shape as the best travel sleep mask because the cabin lights and screens around you never hit your lids directly.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Will it help on long haul flights specifically?", "answer": "Blocking cabin light is the main thing people want from the best eye mask for long haul flights, and the nose curve handles the low angle light from aisle floor strips. Pair it with earplugs if noise is also an issue. It packs flat in a seat pocket.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Is it useful for shift workers sleeping in daylight?", "answer": "Daytime sleep is harder because light comes in around curtain edges and from low angles. A mask that seals under the nose is usually what shift workers mean when they look for the best mask for shift workers. Combine it with a blackout blind for best results.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Can I use it for meditation or a short rest?", "answer": "Yes. Because there is no pressure on the eyes you can keep them open or closed inside the mask. People who use the best sleep mask for meditation often prefer this for short sessions where a tight band feels distracting.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Does the strap pull my hair?", "answer": "The closure is hook and loop, and the hook side can catch loose strands if you are not careful fastening it. Fasten the strap away from your hair, then slide the mask into place. Tie longer hair back if it tends to tangle.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "How tight should the strap be?", "answer": "Tight enough that the edges stay in contact with your skin, loose enough that you cannot feel pressure on your temples. If you have a red line on your forehead in the morning, loosen it a notch. The adjustable closure is there so you can fine tune it.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Will it fit a small face or a large head?", "answer": "The hook and loop closure gives a wide adjustment range, which is why people search for the best adjustable sleep mask rather than a fixed elastic one. The face panel itself is a set size at 12.7 cm across. Very small or very large faces may find the coverage different from average.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "It is black with a letter print pattern. Black is the usual choice for a mask because dark fabric absorbs rather than scatters any light that reaches it. Only the one colour is listed for this item.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Machine wash on a gentle cycle inside a lingerie bag, as the manufacturer instructions state. Use cool water and a mild detergent, and skip bleach and fabric softener. Reshape by hand and dry flat.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Can I tumble dry it?", "answer": "No. Heat is bad for both silk and the foam insert, so keep it out of the dryer. Dry it flat, away from direct sun and radiators, and it will hold its shape.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "How often should I wash it?", "answer": "Every one to two weeks is reasonable for nightly use, sooner if you wear makeup or skincare to bed. A washable mask is easier to keep hygienic, which is partly why people look for the best washable sleep mask. Having a second one on rotation helps.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "Do not iron the moulded eye cups, as heat can distort the foam. If the strap creases, smooth it by hand. The silk face panel does not need pressing for normal use.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Does it get hot or sweaty?", "answer": "Silk is listed as a breathable material against the face, and the domed shape leaves an air pocket rather than sealing fabric to your skin. That combination usually runs cooler than a padded flat mask. Room temperature still matters most.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Is there any smell when it arrives new?", "answer": "New textiles can carry a faint packaging smell. Airing it for a day usually clears it, and a gentle wash will too. The listing notes non-toxic dye.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Does it come in a gift box?", "answer": "It is supplied in a wrapped box as a single unit, which makes it straightforward to give as a present. It is a common small gift for travellers, students and anyone who works nights. No gift wrapping service is included beyond the supplied packaging.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "Will it work for children?", "answer": "The age range listed is adult, and the face panel is sized accordingly.

Choose a mask sized for children instead.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "How is it delivered?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier from Australian warehouses, and most arrive within 5 to 10 working days.

Contact us first so we can set the return up.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "How does it compare with a cheap flat silk band?", "answer": "A flat band is lighter and folds smaller, but it rests directly on your eyes and almost always leaks light beside the nose. A contoured design costs a little more and takes up slightly more space in a bag. If pressure on the eyes is what keeps waking you, the domed shape is the fix.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "What if it is not right for me?", "answer": "Fit is personal, and face shapes vary, so if the mask does not sit well for you send it back unused and unwashed within 14 days of delivery. Get in touch and we will walk you through the return. If the issue is just the strap tension, try adjusting it over a couple of nights first, since most fit complaints settle once the hook and loop is set correctly.", "source": "Contoured No Pressure Silk Sleep Mask (Black)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/contoured-silk-sleep-mask-no-pressure-black/" }, { "question": "What exactly comes in the pack?", "answer": "You get two silk sleep masks, each with its own adjustable elastic strap. They are packed flat, so they arrive ready to use after a quick airing out. There are no extra accessories included in this set.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "What are the masks made of?", "answer": "They are made of silk, with silk on both the outer and inner surfaces. The strap is elastic with a buckle for adjustment. The momme weight and weave type are not specified in this record.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Why silk rather than cotton?", "answer": "Silk is a very fine, smooth fibre, so skin slides across it with less friction than it does across cotton or brushed polyester. It also feels cool to the touch when it first goes on. For a mask worn against the eye area for hours, that smoothness is the main practical difference.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "What age is this sized for?", "answer": "The shape and strap length are made for children rather than adults, so it suits primary school ages and younger children who will tolerate wearing one. Because the strap buckle adjusts, the fit covers a reasonable range of head sizes. A very small toddler or a near-adult teenager may be outside the comfortable range.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Will it actually block the light?", "answer": "The mask is designed with a contoured edge that follows the nose and brow to close the gaps where light usually creeps in. How complete the darkness feels depends on face shape and how the strap is set. Spend a minute adjusting the buckle the first night and you will get a much better seal.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "How big is each mask?", "answer": "The listed pack dimensions are 23.98 x 1.57 x 13.49 cm, which is the flat packed size. Individual mask measurements are not specified in this record. If exact dimensions matter for your child, message us before ordering.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "How heavy is it?", "answer": "The pack weighs 50 grams in total, so each mask is a matter of grams. Children generally stop noticing it within a minute or two of putting it on. That light weight is a big part of why silk masks get worn and cheaper padded ones get abandoned.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is it adjustable or one fixed size?", "answer": "The elastic strap has a buckle, so you can shorten or lengthen it. Set it once to your child's head and it usually stays right for months. Check it occasionally as they grow.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Will it leave marks on the face?", "answer": "Any mask worn snugly can leave a faint temporary line, but a lightweight silk mask set to a comfortable tension is far less likely to than a tight foam one. If you see deep marks in the morning, loosen the buckle a notch. The goal is contact, not compression.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Can it be worn by an adult?", "answer": "It is shaped and strapped for a child's head, so most adults will find it small and the strap short. If you want one for yourself, look at the adult masks in the same category. This two pack is better kept for the kids.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is this good for flights?", "answer": "Yes, this is one of the better uses for it. Cabin lights come on at odd hours and the person in the next row always seems to have their reading light on. A flat 50 gram pack slides into a seat pocket or a child's backpack without any fuss, which is why it rates well as a travel sleep mask for kids.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Does it work for camping?", "answer": "It does. Tents glow early in summer and most children wake with the light rather than the clock. A mask is lighter and far cheaper than trying to block out a tent wall, so it is a sensible pick as a kids sleep mask for camping.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Can both masks be used at once by two children?", "answer": "Yes, that is a common reason people buy the pack. Siblings sharing a room each get their own, which also avoids the usual argument about whose is whose. The two masks are the same size, so swapping is not a problem either.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "How do I wash it?", "answer": "Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent made for delicates. Do not bleach, do not wring and do not tumble dry. Press the water out in a towel and dry flat, away from direct sun and heaters.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Can it go in the washing machine?", "answer": "We recommend hand washing. Machine agitation is hard on fine silk and on the elastic in the strap, and it shortens the life of both. If you really must machine wash, use a mesh bag on the gentlest cold cycle and accept that it will wear faster.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "How often should it be washed?", "answer": "Every week or two is reasonable for nightly use, and sooner if your child has had a cold or applied anything to their face. Washing little and gently beats washing hard and rarely. Having two masks makes rotating easy.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Can I iron it?", "answer": "If it needs pressing, use the lowest iron setting on the reverse side of the silk and keep the iron off the elastic strap. Most of the time a flat dry is enough and ironing is not needed. Never iron the mask while it is damp with detergent residue.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Will the colour run in the wash?", "answer": "Wash it separately in cool water the first few times, as you would with any coloured silk item. Do not soak it for long periods. Avoid detergents with bleach or brighteners, which are the usual cause of colour loss.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is it machine dryable?", "answer": "No. Heat is the quickest way to ruin silk and to perish elastic. Dry it flat in a shady spot with some air movement and it will be ready by morning.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Will my child keep it on all night?", "answer": "Many do once the fit is right and the mask has become part of the bedtime routine. Some children take a few nights to get used to it. Letting them wear it for ten minutes during a story before lights out usually helps it stick.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Is it safe to sleep in?", "answer": "It is a lightweight fabric mask with an adjustable elastic strap and no hard parts. As with any item worn in bed, supervise younger children and set the strap so it is comfortable rather than tight. Use your own judgement about your child's age and habits.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Does it suit side sleepers?", "answer": "Yes. Because the mask is thin and light rather than moulded with foam cups, it lies flat against the pillow without levering off. Side sleepers often prefer this style for exactly that reason.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "What colour will I receive?", "answer": "Colour is not recorded in this listing, so we cannot confirm a specific shade or print before dispatch. If colour matters for a gift, contact us first and we will tell you what is in stock. We never quote supplier colour codes because they do not describe anything useful.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Does it make a good gift?", "answer": "It does, especially for a child who is about to fly or go on a school camp. It is small, useful and not another plastic toy. Two masks also means one gift covers two children if you want it to.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "Where is it made?", "answer": "The country of origin is China. Silk production and finishing of this kind has a very long history there.

Two packs is a common choice for larger families or for a classroom gift. Stock permitting, it ships the same way.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "What if it is not right for my child?", "answer": "Try adjusting the buckle first, since most fit complaints come down to a strap that is too loose or too tight. If it still is not working, get in touch within 14 days of delivery with the masks unused and unwashed and we will sort out a return. Tell us what went wrong, because that feedback shapes what we stock next.", "source": "Kids Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/kids-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack/" }, { "question": "What exactly comes in the pack?", "answer": "You get two sleep masks in one pack.

The listing states silk on both faces, so the side resting against your skin and the outer side are the same material. There is no separate lining fabric listed.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack (Black & Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack-black-pink/" }, { "question": "What size is each mask?", "answer": "Each mask measures roughly 23.98 cm wide, 13.49 cm tall and 1.57 cm thick. That is a standard adult eye mask footprint that covers the eye area and reaches towards the temples.", "source": "Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask 2 Pack (Black & Pink)", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-2-pack-black-pink/" }, { "question": "Will it fit my head?", "answer": "The strap is adjustable, so you set the length to suit you rather than hoping a fixed loop works.

The mask is thin and flexible, so it does not create a hard lump between your face and the pillow.

A 19 momme silk is denser and more substantial than a lighter weight such as 12 or 16 momme, so the cloth has more body to it.", "source": "Pink 19 Momme Mulberry Silk Eye Mask with Gift Box", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/pink-19-momme-silk-eye-mask-gift-box/" }, { "question": "Is the silk on both sides of the mask?", "answer": "Yes.

This one has a larger face panel and a silk face fabric, plus an adjustable hook-and-loop closure instead of a fixed loop. It is closer to a proper sleep accessory than a disposable.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Is it good for side sleepers?", "answer": "That is the main reason for the wide band design.

Silk is used because it is smooth, so skin and lashes move over it with less friction than against cotton or polyester. The exact momme weight is not specified in this record.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "What colour is it?", "answer": "Black, in a solid pattern. Black is the practical choice for a travel item because it stays discreet and does not show light marks the way a pale colour does.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "How does the closure work?", "answer": "It is a hook-and-loop fastening, so you press the two surfaces together wherever the tension feels right. There are no fixed notches, which means you can fine-tune the fit rather than choosing between two preset sizes. Once you find your setting, you can leave it fastened.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Will it fit a small head or a large head?", "answer": "The adjustable band covers a wide range because the closure is continuous rather than stepped. Smaller heads simply overlap the band further.

How complete the blackout feels depends on your face shape and how firmly you set the band. No fabric mask is a hard seal.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Can I use it during the day?", "answer": "Yes, that is a common use.

The broad band also helps when you are upright in a seat and the mask would otherwise shift. Plenty of people buy it specifically as the best travel sleep mask for long-haul flights.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Does the band help with noise?", "answer": "The band is broader than a cord and covers part of the ear area, so it can muffle sound slightly and help hold earplugs in place. It is not hearing protection and should not be treated as such.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Can I wear earplugs with it?", "answer": "Yes.

Keeping it fastened when stored solves this. It is the single habit that most extends the life of any mask with this closure type.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Is silk better than cotton for a sleep mask?", "answer": "For friction, yes. Silk is smoother, so lashes and the skin around the eyes slide over it rather than catching. Cotton is easier to launder, which is the trade-off, but a silk eye mask generally feels softer on the face.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Does it put pressure on the eyes?", "answer": "The panel sits over the eye area rather than pressing into it, and because the band spreads tension, you can usually get a light-blocking fit without cranking it tight. If it feels firm, loosen the closure a notch, the mask does not need to be tight to work.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Black", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-black/" }, { "question": "Will it leave marks on my face?", "answer": "A wide, soft band spread over a large area is far less likely to leave a line than a thin elastic.

A wide band spreads that same tension across a much broader area of fabric. The result is less of a pressure line and less chance of the strap catching an ear or an earplug.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Will it actually block the light?", "answer": "The eye panel is larger than most masks and the nose edge is shaped rather than cut straight, which closes the usual gap beside the nose. How dark it gets depends on your face shape and how you set the strap. Most people find a larger panel with a contoured nose makes a noticeable difference compared with a basic mask.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Is this good for side sleepers?", "answer": "Yes, that is one of the things the wide band is designed around. A thin elastic cord creates a hard ridge that your pillow presses into when you lie on your side. A broad band flattens out instead, so there is less of a lump between your head and the pillow.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "What is the mask made of?", "answer": "The listing specifies silk, described as a natural material.

Washing it before bed gives it the whole night to dry flat. Having a second mask in rotation makes this easier.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Will the colour run?", "answer": "Wash it separately the first few times, in cool water, and do not let it sit soaking. That is standard practice for any dyed silk item and the safest way to protect both the mask and anything else in the basin.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "What size is it?", "answer": "The packaged dimensions are 24.31 x 13.59 x 1.9 cm. The flat dimensions of the mask itself are not specified in this record, but it is described as larger than most masks on the market, with a long adjustable strap intended to suit a wide range of head sizes.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Will it fit a small head?", "answer": "The strap is adjustable and long, so you can pull it in considerably. The eye panel is generous, which some people with very small faces find is a bonus because it covers more, while others prefer a compact mask. There is only one size offered.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Will it fit a large head?", "answer": "The closure is described as long and adjustable specifically so it works across different head sizes. If you have found standard masks too tight at the back, the extra strap length here should help.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Does it press on the eyes?", "answer": "It should not, as long as you do not over-tighten the strap. Set it just firm enough to stay put when you roll over. If you feel pressure on the eyelids, loosen it a notch and the mask will usually still block the light.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Can I wear it with earplugs?", "answer": "Yes, and the wide band actually helps here. Because the band covers the area around the ear rather than cutting across the top of it, it tends to hold earplugs in place rather than knocking them loose. This is a common reason people look for the best sleep mask for side sleepers.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for travel?", "answer": "It is light and flat, so it packs into a carry-on pocket or handbag without effort. Many shoppers buy a mask like this specifically as the best travel eye mask for long-haul flights and overnight trains.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Will it work for daytime sleeping?", "answer": "That is one of the main reasons for the larger panel and shaped nose edge. Daytime light comes in at a lower angle and finds every gap. Shift workers and new parents tend to want the best blackout eye mask they can get, and a bigger panel is the practical starting point.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Does it get hot?", "answer": "Silk tends to feel cool against the skin and does not trap heat the way a thick padded mask can. There is no foam insert here, so there is less bulk over the eye area. Personal comfort still varies with room temperature.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Is it one colour only?", "answer": "This listing is the light plum version, in a solid pattern with no print. Other colours may be available as separate listings.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Will it wreck my eyelash extensions?", "answer": "We do not make claims about what a mask will or will not do to extensions. What we can say is that silk is smooth, so lashes slide over it with less friction than they would over a rougher cotton or polyester surface, and a larger panel sits further from the lash line than a tight, small mask.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Can I use it with night cream on?", "answer": "You can, but any fabric mask will pick up cream and oils. Let products absorb for a few minutes before putting the mask on, and wash it a little more often if you use rich products at night.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Is it suitable for children?", "answer": "The age range listed is adult. The strap length and panel size are built for adult heads, so it is not the right choice for a small child.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Does the strap loosen overnight?", "answer": "Adjustable elastic closures can creep a little with use, which is normal. If you find it has loosened, re-set the adjuster. Avoid stretching the strap to its absolute limit, because that shortens its working life.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Is this a good gift?", "answer": "It is one of the easier gifts to get right, because there is no sizing guesswork and it suits almost anyone who travels or sleeps lightly. The plum colour reads as considered rather than generic, which is why it often comes up as the best silk sleep mask gift for birthdays and Christmas.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Does it come in a gift box?", "answer": "Packaging is not detailed in this record beyond the carton dimensions, so we would not promise a presentation box. If you are gifting it, a simple pouch or wrap works well.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "How is it delivered?", "answer": "Orders are sent by tracked courier from Australian warehouses. Most arrive within 5 to 10 working days. You will get tracking so you can see where the parcel is.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Is delivery free?", "answer": "Delivery is free nationwide on orders over NZ$175. Below that, a standard courier charge applies and is shown at checkout before you pay.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "Can I return it?", "answer": "Returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery, provided the mask is unused and unwashed. Because this is an item worn against the face, we cannot accept a mask that has been slept in or laundered.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "How long will it last?", "answer": "That depends on how often you wear and wash it. Hand washing, drying flat and keeping the strap out of hot water all extend the life of the silk and the elastic. Many people rotate two masks so neither one is worn every single night.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" }, { "question": "What if it is not right for me?", "answer": "If the fit or feel is not what you expected, contact us within 14 days of delivery and we will sort out a return, as long as the mask is unused and unwashed. Check the strap adjustment first, because a surprising number of fit complaints come down to a strap set too tight or too loose. If it still is not working for you, we would rather take it back than have it sit in a drawer.", "source": "Wide Band Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask in Light Plum", "url": "https://mulberrysilk.co.nz/wide-band-mulberry-silk-sleep-mask-light-plum/" } ] }
