Sheets and Pillowcases Buying Guide
A comfortable bed with clean, crisp
bed sheets and nice pillowcases is a superlative welcome home after a hard day's work.
Materials
Presumably you spend a lot of time in your bed, so you want to pick out the best of the best for the ultimate comfort: flannel, silk, satin or blends are the way to go. A bit more on the benefits of each material:
*
Pima are considered to be of the highest quality.
*
comfort. However, this will pill up after a while.
*
Satin pillowcases are soft and much easier on the hair.
*
jersey sheets are comfortable and lightweight. Unfortunately, they are not made to last for years and years.
Size
Before buying
bed is of a longer length (this size is quite pervasive in college dorm rooms).
Thread count
If you're like me, you've always been a little befuddled by the term "thread count." Basically,
1000!). Make sure to find something that meets your comfort quota.
