Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking for the most affordable real silk pillowcases on Amazon. I had previously ordered a two pack from another vendor claiming to be 19 momme silk but they failed the burn test. Realizing you get what you pay for I upped my budget. I ordered both these and the 19 momme cases from Alaska Bear. The Alaska Bear ones were nice, but very thin. You can feel the difference with these. They have more weight to them. Reminded me of what an evening dress would be made out of. But what really sold me was the burn test. I pulled some loose silk strands from the seam. You can see the strands are hairlike. Burning the strands gave the faint smell of burnt hair. Furthermore the ash fully disintegrated. The two pack I had initially purchased from the other vendor burned to a plastic thing. I never tested the Alaska Bear ones as I preferred the feel of these. So I’m fully confident in the quality of these pillowcases. My hair has almost zero frizz when I get up in the morning. They stay cool to the touch and just feel luxurious. I went all out and opted for the queen size. My pillows are only standard size. But I’d prefer there be a bit of slack to the case to prevent any stress in the zipper, seams when you’re tossing in your sleep. A bit of a hit to the wallet, yes. But if you can afford it, go for it. Life’s short. Treat yourself!
