Bonnets are a type of headgear that have been used for both sexes, but more often for women, from the Middle Ages to the present). In particular, house bonnets worn by women and girls in the mid-17th and 18th centuries were generally brimless headcoverings that were secured by tying under the chin and were worn both indoors and outdoors to keep the hair tidy, to keep dust or flour out of the hair while working, and in accordance with the Christian Bible passage 1 Corinthians 11). However, in modern times, the term "bonnet" is often used to refer to hair bonnets, which are special caps made to be used during sleep time in order to protect hair. Some benefits of using hair bonnets include:

• Preventing frizz: Hair bonnets reduce the amount of frizz you wake up with, as well as prevent knots, thinning, and breakage.

• Retaining moisture: Hair bonnets help to keep hair hydrated and minimize frizz by helping hair retain moisture.

• Protecting hairstyles: Hair bonnets can protect hairstyles, ensuring curls and braids last longer, especially if you have a busy routine and no time to freshen them up each morning.

• Preventing skin irritation: Hair bonnets can help keep your pillows clean of any oils, conditioner, or dye, which can prevent breakouts, clogged pores, and skin irritation.

• Cost-effective: Hair bonnets are a simple and cost-effective hair accessory that can give your locks a lot of benefits.

Hair bonnets are typically made from silk or satin, which is beneficial in helping hair retain moisture and shine. While hair bonnets have always been essential for those with curly, frizzy, or wavy hair, they can benefit people of all hair types.
