Organic Silk Sleep Bonnet — Onyx Black | 22 Momme Mulberry Silk
Crafted in 22 Momme Mulberry Silk
$68.00 USD
Your hair's best overnight investment. The Soreia Organic Silk Sleep Bonnet in Onyx Black is crafted from 22 momme organic mulberry silk — the gold standard for overnight hair protection. Whether your hair is natural, color-treated, chemically processed, or heat-styled, this bonnet creates a low-friction cocoon that preserves moisture, reduces breakage, and keeps your style intact while you sleep.
Why Silk Bonnets Outperform Cotton Caps
Cotton pillowcases and caps absorb moisture from hair and create friction that causes frizz, tangles, and breakage overnight. Silk's smooth, low-friction surface lets hair glide freely, retaining natural oils and moisture — the reason silk bonnets are recommended by dermatologists and trichologists for hair health.
Key Benefits
- Reduces hair breakage & split ends — low-friction silk surface eliminates the overnight snagging that damages hair cuticles
- Preserves moisture — unlike cotton, silk doesn't absorb hair's natural oils or product moisture
- Protects styles overnight — blowouts, braids, twists, and curls stay intact longer
- Organic mulberry silk — cleaner sourcing, free from harsh chemical treatments
- Elastic band stays put — secure fit that doesn't slip off during sleep
- Generous size — accommodates all hair types, lengths, and volumes including locs and protective styles

Frequently Asked Questions
- What size silk sleep bonnet do I need?
Choose Regular (53–66 cm) if your head circumference is under 66 cm — this fits most people with short to medium-length hair. Choose Large (55–68 cm) if you have high-volume hair, locs, thick braids, or a larger head circumference. When in doubt, size up — the elastic band adjusts to fit securely without being tight.
- Is 22 momme silk worth it for a sleep bonnet?
Yes. Momme (mm) is the weight measurement for silk — higher momme means denser, more durable, and more luxurious fabric. Most budget bonnets use 16–19 momme silk. At 22 momme, the Soreia bonnet is significantly thicker, softer, and longer-lasting. It also retains its smooth surface wash after wash, which is critical for maintaining the low-friction benefit that protects your hair.
- Can I wear a silk bonnet if I have natural or 4C hair?
Absolutely — silk bonnets are especially beneficial for natural and 4C hair, which is more prone to moisture loss and breakage. The smooth silk surface prevents the friction that causes frizz and tangles overnight, while the generous fit accommodates high-volume styles, twist-outs, and wash-and-gos without flattening them.
- How do I wash a silk sleep bonnet?
Hand wash in cool water with a gentle, pH-neutral detergent (silk-specific detergents are ideal). Gently squeeze — never wring or twist. Lay flat on a clean towel to dry away from direct sunlight or heat. Do not tumble dry or iron. With proper care, your Soreia bonnet will maintain its softness and integrity for years.
- Will the elastic band damage my hair or leave marks?
No. The elastic band is designed to be secure without being tight — it holds the bonnet in place during sleep without creating pressure marks or pulling at your hairline. If you find any elastic uncomfortable, the Large size offers a slightly looser fit.
- What is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification?
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 is an independent certification that verifies every component of a textile — including threads, dyes, and accessories — has been tested for harmful substances and is safe for human use. It's one of the most rigorous textile safety certifications in the world, and it means the Soreia bonnet is free from harmful chemicals, safe for sensitive skin, and produced responsibly.
Why Silk Bonnets & Pillowcases Work Better Together
The set is designed to reduce friction and protect both hair and skin while you sleep. Together they help prevent creases, breakage, and overnight dryness.
Frequently asked questions
Is this real silk?
Yes, all of our silk products are made from 100% genuine mulberry silk at 22 momme weight. We never use synthetic alternatives or blended fabrics.
What is Momme?
Momme (pronounced "mah-mee") is the traditional weight and quality measurement for silk fabric. It measures the weight of silk in grams per 100 yards of fabric. A higher momme weight indicates a denser, more durable, and higher-quality silk. Our 22 momme silk is considered premium-grade silk—thick enough to be luxuriously durable while maintaining the signature softness and breathability that makes silk so desirable.
Why Authentic Mulberry Silk Matters
Mulberry silk is the finest type of silk available, produced by silkworms fed exclusively on mulberry leaves. This results in longer, stronger fibers that create smoother, more lustrous fabric compared to other silk varieties. The benefits of authentic mulberry silk include:
- Superior Softness: Mulberry silk has a naturally smooth surface that feels luxurious against the skin, reducing friction and minimizing irritation.
- Enhanced Durability: The longer fibers in mulberry silk make it more resistant to tearing and pilling, ensuring your products last longer with proper care.
- Better Temperature Regulation: Silk naturally adapts to your body temperature, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter—something synthetic alternatives cannot replicate.
- Hypoallergenic Properties: Mulberry silk is naturally hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin, unlike synthetic fabrics that can trap heat and moisture.
- Breathability: Authentic silk allows air circulation, preventing the buildup of moisture and bacteria that synthetic materials can trap.
- Longevity: With proper care, genuine mulberry silk products maintain their beauty, softness, and integrity for years, making them a worthwhile investment.
When you choose our 100% mulberry silk products, you're investing in premium quality, sustainability, and the timeless luxury that only authentic silk can provide.

How do I care for my silk products?
Washing: Hand wash your silk products in cool water with a mild detergent, or machine wash on a delicate cycle with cold water. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals that can damage the delicate silk fibers.
Drying: Air dry your silk items by laying them flat or hanging them in a shaded area. Alternatively, you can tumble dry on low heat if needed. Avoid direct sunlight and high heat, which can fade colors and weaken the fabric.
Ironing: If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting and iron on the reverse side of the fabric to prevent shine marks. Always test on a hidden area first.
Storage: Store your silk products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use breathable storage bags or tissue paper to protect from dust and moisture. Avoid plastic bags, which can trap humidity and cause damage.
With proper care, your silk products will maintain their luxurious quality and beauty for years to come.
