ALASKA BEAR Silk Pillowcase King Size - 19 Momme Pure Mulberry Silk

Our review of the ALASKA BEAR Silk Pillowcase finds it best suited for sleepers who want to protect hair and skin overnight without fuss. The single biggest reason to buy is the fabric: genuine 19 momme Grade 6A Mulberry silk that feels cool and smooth, reduces friction on hair, and is kinder to sensitive facial skin compared with cotton or cheap satin. It arrives as a single king-size case with a matching silk scrunchie and a hidden zipper so the pillow stays put.

Key Features

• 100% Pure Mulberry Silk: The 19 momme, Grade 6A silk surface is breathable and cool to the touch, helping regulate temperature during sleep.
• Hair Protection: The slippery silk reduces friction and static, which helps keep curly or wavy hair hydrated and less frizzy on waking.
• Skin-Friendly Fabric: Dermatologists often recommend silk for sensitive or acne-prone skin because it is less abrasive than cotton or low-quality satin.
• Hidden Zipper Closure: A concealed zipper secures the pillow inside the case so it does not slip out during the night.
• OEKO-TEX Certified: The pillowcase is treated without harsh chemicals and is certified toxic-free, making it safer for regular contact with skin.
• King Size Fit: Sized at 20 x 36 in, it is intended to cover most standard king pillows without being overly tight.

Who It's For

The ALASKA BEAR silk pillowcase is ideal for anyone who wants a simple, single-piece upgrade from cotton - especially people with frizz-prone hair, those who style their hair and want to extend the life of treatments, or sleepers with sensitive facial skin. The included silk scrunchie makes it a convenient sleep set for people who prefer to tie hair loosely for bed.

This is less suited to shoppers who need multiple pillowcases in a pack, or those who prefer very high momme weights above 19 for an ultra-heavy feel. If you require a fitted pillow protector or waterproof features, look elsewhere since this product focuses on silk comfort and skin/hair benefits.

Pros & Cons

• Hidden zipper keeps the pillow secure and the interior edges are neatly stitched for durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this real silk?
Yes. The pillowcase is 100% Grade 6A Mulberry silk at 19 momme.

Will the zipper damage hair?
The zipper is hidden and sits along the edge; with normal use it should not contact hair often and helps keep the pillow securely inside.

How should I wash it?
Follow gentle care: hand wash or delicate machine cycle with mild detergent and air dry to preserve the silk's finish and momme weight.
