Silk Pillowcases For Chemotherapy Symptom Relief: Wellness Guide Released
Sep 21, 2026
Mayfairsilk has released a guide on silk pillowcases and their potential benefits for individuals undergoing chemotherapy.
London, United Kingdom, September 21, 2026 /PressCable/ -- Mayfairsilk has published a guide on silk pillowcases and their potential benefits for chemotherapy patients struggling with hair loss, scalp tenderness, dry skin, and other side effects from treatment. The guide outlines the natural properties of silk and how they may improve sleep quality and provide relief from some symptoms; it also advises readers how to choose a product that will offer the most comfort.

The new guide explains that silk is a natural, protein-based fibre derived from cocoons created by the domestic silkmoth, Bombyx mori. According to Mayfairsilk, dermatologists and professional aestheticians have long recommended silk bedding for individuals with sensitive skin, as the material’s amino acid composition and smooth texture can improve comfort and reduce irritation. These benefits extend to hair health, and they can even aid individuals who are suffering from hair- and scalp-related issues due to chemotherapy.
Mayfairsilk’s resource says that one of the primary benefits of silk bedding, particularly pillowcases, is that the fabric is gentle on the scalp, which can alleviate discomfort from inflammation or sensitivity caused by chemotherapy treatments. The smooth fibres reduce mechanical friction, and they are less hospitable to dust mites and other allergens, which, in turn, can lessen irritation in tender areas. Additionally, silk contains the proteins fibroin and sericin, which help maintain natural oils in the hair, as well as any medicated creams or treatments applied to the scalp - Mayfairsilk says that this property can prevent breakage, making it more conducive to hair regrowth than cotton.
The guide adds that silk has natural thermoregulatory properties that allow the material to adapt to body temperature and keep sleeping surfaces cool. This can help relieve the discomfort caused by night sweats or hot flashes, which are other common side effects of chemotherapy.
However, not all silk pillowcases are suitable for individuals undergoing chemo, which is why Mayfairsilk advises readers to research products carefully. Cancer patients should only purchase silk pillowcases that are OEKO-TEX Standard 100-certified, or they may risk exposing themselves to toxic dyes and other harsh chemicals. Additionally, Mayfairsilk only recommends pillowcases that are 22 momme and above, as these are higher-quality options that contain more silk per square metre, making them softer and more durable than products with lower momme weights.

SK hynix showcases next-generation AI memory technologies beyond HBM
SK hynix said Friday that it has showcased its next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) memory technologies aimed at expanding the boundaries of AI infrastructure beyond conventional high-bandwidth memory (HBM). The company presented the technologies at the OCP Global Summit 2026, held in California from Tuesday to Thursday (local time).

The US$82,000 Illusion: Why Bitcoin still trades like a traditional tech stock
Bitcoin currently trades at US$82,231.14, reflecting a 0.65 per cent gain over the last 24 hours. This movement mirrors a broader 0.84 per cent rise in the total crypto market capitalisation. Having operated in this industry for over 15 years and advised on blockchain policy, I view this price action as a clear reflection of […] The post The US$82,000 Illusion: Why Bitcoin still trades like a traditional tech stock appeared first on e27.
Hong Kong builds a test track for robots that keep failing outside the lab
Every humanoid robot looks brilliant in a launch video. The trouble begins on an ordinary weekday in a warehouse, when a parcel arrives in a shape nobody trained the machine for, a forklift reverses where it shouldn’t, and a worker strolls into its path while scrolling a phone. That messy gap between the lab and […] The post Hong Kong builds a test track for robots that keep failing outside the lab appeared first on e27.

Your ESOP is a fundraising document. Most founders treat it as a HR perk
Almost every founder I meet reaches the same conclusion at roughly the same moment. You cannot outbid a funded competitor on salary, so you give people a stake in the outcome instead. The logic is sound. Equity turns salary-limited hires into owners and aligns the people doing the work with the value they create. Then […] The post Your ESOP is a fundraising document.

Employers are buying AI tools. Their managers are being left behind
Thirty-seven per cent. Eleven per cent. Those two numbers, tucked deep inside Jobstreet by SEEK’s Singapore Workplace Culture Study 2026, may say more about the region’s productivity problem than any headline about AI or inflation. The first is the share of employees who try to manage workplace pressure by quietly drawing their own boundaries: muting […] The post Employers are buying AI tools.

Before you use predictive AI, decide what decision it should change
A lot of startup advice about predictive AI starts too early. It starts with the model, the tool, the data stack, or the dashboard. Those things matter, but they are not the first question. The first question is simpler: what decision should this prediction change? If a startup cannot answer that clearly, it is usually […] The post Before you use predictive AI, decide what decision it should change appeared first on e27.
'AI artists' perform improvised jazz at Jarasum Jazz Festival
Artificial intelligence (AI) models developed by a research team led by Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) professor Nam Ju-han made their debut at one of Korea’s leading jazz festivals, performing improvised jazz alongside human artists. According to the university Friday, the team showcased human-AI music collaboration technology that analyzes the flow of human performances in real time, allowing AI to take over performances or generate improvised accompaniment, during the 23rd Jarasum Jazz Festival, held in Gapyeong County, Gyeonggi Province, from Oct. 9 to 11. A total of 12 human jazz artists participated in the event, collaborating with AI in 26 pieces across 12 performances. The technology is different from existing music AI services as it enables collaboration with human musicians in jazz, a genre characterized by improvisation. Jazz musicians often change the tempo or create new melodies based on how they feel in the moment. Because the same piece can be performed differently each time, musicians must listen to one another and adjust their playing accord
