Manufacturer’s Product Description
The Dreamzie silk sleep cap is designed to be worn at night. According to the product specifications, it is made of 100% mulberry silk (22 momme) and features a double-layer construction. The manufacturer also states that it is certified according to the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100. According to the manufacturer, the smooth surface is designed to help reduce friction on the hair as well as hair breakage and frizz. An adjustable closure allows for a custom fit.
In our practical test, the soft and supple feel as well as the comfortable fit stood out in particular. The workmanship appeared neat during our inspection, and the double-layered construction was clearly visible.
One minor criticism concerns the amount of plastic used in the packaging. Upon unpacking, the cap showed no visible damage caused by shipping. In our view, packaging with less plastic would be preferable.
Overall, the Dreamzie silk cap demonstrated clean workmanship, a soft feel, and a comfortable fit in our practical test.

The silk cap also scored very well in terms of comfort. It could be adjusted to fit the individual, caused no uncomfortable pressure points during the overnight test, and remained in place throughout the test. In the morning, the fit was still perceived as comfortable.
When inspecting the seams, no loose threads or noticeable irregularities were found. Under light tension, no discernible changes were observed either.
During the subsequent hand wash with a mild detergent, the silk hood retained its shape and color. After air-drying, no visible changes were observed.
When testing for noise, no disturbing rustling sounds were audible during various sleeping positions and head movements.
Overall, the Dreamzie silk hood achieved very good results in all tested categories.
