Wholesale Hair Bonnets Fabric Weight: Silk Momme & Satin GSM Guide | Qingyan Bonnets

Wholesale Hair Bonnets Fabric Weight: Silk Momme & Satin GSM Explained

When sourcing wholesale hair bonnets, fabric weight isn’t just a technical detail—it’s a make-or-break factor for your customers’ satisfaction and your brand’s reputation. At Nanjing Qingyan Clothes Co., Ltd., we’ve spent years refining our fabric specifications to balance performance, comfort, and value for wholesale partners worldwide. Here’s everything you need to know about our silk momme and satin GSM standards.

What Is Momme? The Gold Standard for Silk Hair Bonnets

Momme (mm) is the unit of measurement for silk fabric weight, representing the weight of a 45-inch wide yard of silk. Higher momme means thicker, more durable silk that retains its luster and protective properties longer.

Our Silk Bonnet Momme Specs

Our best-selling everyday silk bonnet. This weight strikes the perfect balance between lightweight breathability and long-lasting quality. It’s soft enough to sleep in nightly, yet thick enough to prevent hair friction and retain moisture—ideal for mass-market retailers, beauty supply stores, and subscription box services.

19 Momme Silk

22 Momme Silk

Both options use 100% mulberry silk, certified OEKO-TEX® to ensure no harmful chemicals are used in production—critical for customers with sensitive scalps or eco-conscious values.

We offer two premium silk options tailored to different market needs:

Our luxury silk bonnet line. This heavier silk offers enhanced durability and a luxurious, drapey feel that appeals to high-end boutiques, salon partners, and customers seeking premium hair care solutions. It resists snags and maintains its smooth finish even after repeated washes, making it a top choice for brand loyalists.

What Is GSM? The Key to Satin Bonnet Performance

GSM (grams per square meter) measures the density of satin fabric. Higher GSM translates to a thicker, more robust satin that won’t slip, tear, or become sheer over time.

Our Satin Bonnet GSM Specs

Our budget-friendly yet durable satin bonnet. This weight is thick enough to avoid transparency, stays securely on heads during sleep, and is gentle on curly, coily, or straight hair. It’s perfect for fast-fashion retailers, discount stores, and customers looking for reliable, low-cost hair protection.

190 GSM Satin

220 GSM Satin

All our satin bonnets are made with high-quality polyester satin that mimics the hair-protective benefits of silk, including reducing frizz and breakage.

We’ve optimized our satin bonnets for both affordability and quality with two core options:

Our premium satin line. This heavier satin offers a luxe, silky touch similar to silk but at a more accessible price point. It’s resistant to wrinkling, retains its shape wash after wash, and is ideal for beauty brands targeting customers who want salon-quality results without the silk price tag.
