Silk + Aromatherapy Bonnets for an Elevated Hair Care Ritual

Silk and aromatherapy.

Can you think of anything more luxurious, a better way of wrapping your hair in beauty? Silk has long been known for its health-giving properties for shiny, luscious hair. Aromatherapy has been known for eons as a way to support nervous system calm and as one of the original perfumes to anoint the body and hair.

It’s the Nod Co.™ is the first (and only) to combine the two for an elevated nightly ritual and sweeter mornings.

I wanted to create something that felt sacred — the way I imagined old-school night caps did in generations past. A signal that your day was done. A reminder to tend to yourself. Something to put on at night that said, You made it through the day. Now, come back to yourself.

It started one night while I was lying in bed with my newborn and freshly conditioned hair. I have long hair, and I didn’t feel safe tying it back — not with a hair tie that could slip out and become a choking hazard for the baby. That night, I was half-awake, half-alert, and I started thinking: I need a bonnet I can wear that keeps my hair back, still contains and conditions it, and is safe for the baby. So, I started learning about the benefits of silk bonnets.

Silk bonnets make great nightcaps. Silk protects your hair, reduces friction, and holds in moisture.

And I had already been using clean aromatherapy oils at night and knew how much essential oils help with scalp health and dryness while anointing the body and hair with ritual-like scent.

But what really lit me up was the idea that all of this could become part of a nightly ritual.

So I created Nod: a modern nightcap made from luxurious silk, designed for sleep, hair care, ritual, and deep restoration.

I started developing a product rooted in that vision — something simple, comforting, and sensory. Thoughtfully designed and crafted. With a hint of sweetness, softness, and soul.
