Keeping your curls defined and frizz-free overnight doesn’t have to be a hassle. A Blissy Silk Pillowcase—made from the highest grade 100% mulberry silk—is the easiest way to protect your curly wolf cut while you sleep.

💧 Locks in moisture: Doesn’t absorb your hair’s natural oils or styling products
