Our Story


It all started with my daughter Reyna’s beautiful, bouncy hair… and a whole lot of breakage I couldn’t explain. She was about 2 when I was brushing out little knots and noticing strands coming out way too easily. Then one day it clicked—she was rubbing her head on a cotton sheet all night long! Meanwhile, I was sleeping peacefully on a silk pillowcase to protect my hair. So I thought… why isn’t there something like this for kids?

One sleepless night, while nursing Reyna to sleep (she was taking her sweet time, of course), I was lying there in the dark when the idea hit me—Silkhead Kids was born! A silky-soft solution for tiny heads with big dreams.

I decided to make our pillowcases in Standard size only—because let’s be real, most little kids roll right off those tiny toddler pillows and end up face-planted on the mattress. And that cotton sheet? It’s doing their hair zero favors. A flat standard pillow gives them room to wiggle while keeping their hair protected all night long.

Silkhead Kids is made for your little mover, roller, and dreamer—so they can wake up with happy hair (and you can brush a little easier in the morning 😉).

 

The Fabric of Our Being

At Silkhead Kids, we believe bedtime should be soft, safe, and just a little bit magical.

We don’t cut corners (or threads). Our pillowcases are made from the highest-grade 6A, 25 Momme, 100% mulberry silk — OEKO-TEX® certified, because your child’s skin and hair deserve nothing less than the real deal.

Why silk? Because cotton can be rough on delicate hair — tugging, tangling, and drying it out while they sleep. Our silk was developed as a natural, no-effort solution to those morning battles with bedhead and breakage.

The result? Less friction, fewer knots, and smoother wakeups (for you and them).

And the perks don’t stop there — our silk is also:

  • Naturally hypoallergenic
  • Temperature regulating (cool in summer, cozy in winter)
  • Moisture-wicking
  • Totally free from harsh chemicals or synthetic coatings

We don’t do shortcuts — we do safe, soft, and seriously stylish sleep for kids aged 2 to 6.

Because when your little one sleeps better, looks smoother, and wakes up happy? That’s a parenting win.

Bye-bye tangles. Hello, silky mornings.
