What to Expect When You Start Wearing the SILKE Hair Wrap

From our co-founder Maria - hairstylist of 37 years

When it comes to transforming your hair, there’s no overnight fix. But silk comes close.

If you’ve just started wearing your SILKE Hair Wrap, you might be wondering what kind of difference it will make and how soon. After decades behind the chair, I created this wrap to help women tackle the root causes of breakage, thinning, frizz and hair that never seems to grow past a certain point.

The key? Consistency. Wrapping your hair in silk each night may seem simple - but over the coming weeks you’ll start to see just how much of a difference it makes.

Here’s what to expect.

Week 1: Restored Hydration The Foundation of Healthy Hair

Most of us don’t realise our hair is dehydrated - not just dry, but stripped of the oils that keep it smooth, strong and flexible. That’s where silk steps in.

The SILKE Hair Wrap helps your hair retain its natural oils, instead of losing them to cotton or synthetic pillowcases. Those oils stay where they belong - nourishing your strands, not your bedding.

Expect smoother cuticles less frizz and a healthy return of natural shine.

Pro tip: Getting the fit right is everything. Make sure all your hair is tucked in, the band covers your hairline, and adjust it behind or over your ears depending on what feels most secure. You can even add a bobby pin at the back if you move a lot in your sleep. Check out our tips here.

Week 2: Breaking Up with Breakage

With hydration restored, your hair becomes more resilient - less prone to snapping or splitting under pressure.

The wrap cushions your strands against friction, so you’ll notice fewer flyaways and broken hairs. You might even find your style lasting longer between washes, helping you cut down on heat and over-styling during the week.

Expect stronger strands fewer split ends and longer-lasting styles.

Pro tip: Hair looking fresher for longer? That’s the wrap preserving your scalp’s balance - and giving you more time between shampoos.

Week 4: The Glow-Up Phase

By now, you’ll really feel the shift. Your hair looks healthier, feels fuller, and styles with ease.

Those delicate baby hairs around your hairline? They’re being protected - not snapped off. And with less friction night after night, your lengths stay smooth while your scalp’s natural oils travel further down the hair shaft, nourishing from root to tip.

Expect more volume, stronger regrowth, and hair that behaves better by morning.

Pro tip: If you’re seeing fewer strands on your pillowcase, that’s not a coincidence. The wrap is doing its job.

Week 6+: Beautiful Hair Your New Normal

Six weeks in, your hair’s condition has turned a corner.

It’s stronger, glossier and easier to manage. Shedding is reduced. Growth looks fuller. Frizz is dialled down. And perhaps best of all - you’re no longer relying on styling products or hot tools to feel put together.

Expect shinier, healthier, silk-protected strands - and results that keep building.

Pro tip: Check your hairline - you might spot new baby hairs growing in where breakage used to occur. That’s the beauty of long-term silk protection.

The more regularly you wrap the more your hair will thank you. It’s a ritual worth keeping and one you’ll wonder how you ever lived without.
