FAQs

How does silk help prevent infant hair loss and bald spots?

Ordinary cotton or bamboo sheets tug and twist the hair eventually causing knotting, frizz and infant bald spots, our 100% Mulberry Silk allows hair to glide smoothly across the sleep surface, minimising friction and solving the problem!

The perfect material for sensitive skin, silk is a natural, breathable fibre that is naturally hydrating. The temperature regulating properties of silk ensure bub stays cool and comfortable while in the car and all night long.

Silk is also naturally hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant, making it perfect for bubs with allergies.

Yes! Recommended by dermatologists, asthma and eczema specialists, silk is naturally hypoallergenic, anti-bacterial, and uninhabitable by dust mites, perfect for allergy sufferers.

Frequently asked question

Share details about your shipping policies, item returns, or customer service.

Is Silky Tots guaranteed to make my babies hair grow?

Babies can experience hair loss after birth due to hormonal changes (some far more than others) this is a completely natural process and silk cannot completely stop this process. The silk will, however, help to minimise the hair loss and allow the new hair to grow in much quicker, when the new hair does start to grow.

5 Top Tips to Prevent Baby Bald Spots

Try these simple tricks to prevent baby bald spots and soothe dry skin:

SWITCH TO SILK

BRUSH

SWAP SIDES

TUMMY TIME

WASH LESS

Switch to 100% Mulberry Silk

Silk reduces friction, allowing baby’s hair to glide smoothly over the mattress surface, helping to prevent bald spots, frizz, and knotting. It also supports regrowth by giving new hairs the chance to grow through existing bald spots

Brush Before Bedtime

Brushing baby's hair before bedtime will help it stay smooth and reduce the likelihood of knots while baby sleeps.

Swap Sleeping Sides

Babies naturally tend to face outward, so switching sides occasionally means the pressure on their head is more evenly distributed.

Encourage Tummy Time

The more time your baby spends playing and laying on their tummy, the less time they spend rubbing their head!

Avoid Washing Hair Too Often

It's important to protect the natural oils on your baby's scalp—avoid washing too often and always use gentle, natural shampoos. For the first 6 months, water alone is often best.
