Muriersilk vs Blissy: An Honest Comparison of Two Silk Bonnet Brands
Muriersilk vs Blissy: An Honest Comparison of Two Silk Bonnet Brands
If you're shopping for a silk bonnet, you've probably seen Blissy everywhere. They run heavy ads, sponsor influencers, and dominate search results. But are they actually the best option for your money?
We're going to compare Muriersilk and Blissy across every dimension that matters: material quality, product variety, pricing, customer experience, and real-world performance. We sell silk bonnets, so we're obviously biased — but we'll present the facts and let you decide.
Brand Overview
Blissy
Blissy started as a silk pillowcase brand and expanded into bonnets, eye masks, and accessories. They're based in the US and are known primarily for their marketing presence. Their Trustpilot rating sits at approximately 3.5-4.0 stars with mixed reviews — many positive reviews praise the silk quality, while complaints often focus on customer service, sizing issues, and pricing.
Muriersilk
We're a smaller brand focused specifically on silk accessories for hair and skin care. Our product line includes bonnets, turbans, eye masks, gloves, scarves, and scrunchies — all made from 100% 6A grade mulberry silk. We've been less aggressive on marketing but more focused on product variety and value.
Material Quality
| Spec | Muriersilk | Blissy |
|---|---|---|
| Silk type | 100% mulberry silk | 100% mulberry silk |
| Grade | 6A (highest) | Claims 6A, 22 momme |
| Momme weight | 19-33mm (varies by product) | 22mm |
| OEKO-TEX | Yes | Yes |
Verdict: Comparable. Both brands use genuine mulberry silk. Muriersilk offers a wider range of momme weights — our sleeping gloves are 33 momme for extra durability, while lighter items like scarves use 19mm for drape. Blissy standardizes at 22 momme across products.
The real test is in the hand. Both feel like genuine silk. The difference isn't quality of material — it's what each brand does with it.
Product Range
This is where the comparison gets interesting.
Silk Bonnets
| Feature | Muriersilk | Blissy |
|---|---|---|
| Number of styles | 9 distinct designs | 4 styles (Classic, Halo, Bow, Cascade) |
| Closure types | Elastic, tie-back, turban twist, wide band | Elastic band, adjustable strap |
| Turban options | Yes (DuoTwist, KnotTie, CoilBand, RuffleLong) | No |
| Kids' bonnet | Yes (KidDuo) | No |
| Reversible options | Yes (SilkRuffle, DuoTwist, KidDuo) | No |
| Color options | 5-6 per style | 30+ colors/patterns |
Muriersilk advantage: More closure types and styles. If you have long hair, thick hair, or natural hair, having turban options matters — a standard elastic bonnet often doesn't stay on. Our DuoTwist turban and CoilBand are designed for hair types that elastic bonnets can't handle.
Blissy advantage: Far more color and pattern options if aesthetics are your priority.
Beyond Bonnets
| Category | Muriersilk | Blissy |
|---|---|---|
| Eye masks | 3 styles ($39.99-$78.99) | Yes |
| Silk gloves | 5 styles ($44.99-$89.99) | No |
| Silk scarves | 8+ styles ($39.99-$89.99) | No |
| Silk scrunchies | Yes | Yes |
| Silk headbands | Yes | No |
| Silk socks | 6 styles | No |
| Pillowcases | No | Yes (their flagship) |
| Silk pajamas | No | Yes |
Muriersilk is broader in hair and skin accessories. Blissy is broader in bedding and loungewear. Different focus.
Pricing
Here's where things get real.
| Product | Muriersilk | Blissy |
|---|---|---|
| Standard bonnet | $69.99-$99.99 | $89.95 |
| Adjustable bonnet | $79.99 (ForeFree) | ~$89.95 |
| Premium bonnet | $99.99 (BowTie) | ~$89.95 |
| Eye mask | $39.99 | ~$45.95 |
| Scrunchies | Set pricing | ~$29.95 |
Pricing is roughly comparable, with Muriersilk generally $10-20 less on bonnets and eye masks. Blissy frequently runs sales and bundles that can bring prices down.
Neither brand is "cheap." Real mulberry silk isn't cheap to produce. If you see a "silk" bonnet for $15, it's polyester satin. Both Muriersilk and Blissy are in the legitimate price range for genuine silk.
Customer Experience
Blissy
- Trustpilot: ~3.5-4.0 stars across thousands of reviews
- Common praise: Soft feel, good quality silk, fast shipping
- Common complaints: Sizing issues (bonnets reported as too tight), customer service response times, return shipping costs ($22+ for international), some reports of fabric deterioration after a few months
- Notable: Several reviewers on Trustpilot mention the bonnet being "too tight for the price" and "not functionally different from $20 Amazon options"
Muriersilk
- Smaller review base (we're a younger brand)
- Focus on fit variety — 9 bonnet styles means more options for different head sizes and hair types
- Free shipping over $150
- 30-day returns
Honest take: Blissy has more social proof simply because they've been around longer and spend heavily on marketing. But volume of reviews doesn't equal quality of product. Read the actual reviews, not just the star count.
The Fit Problem
This deserves its own section because it's the #1 complaint across all silk bonnet brands.
A bonnet that doesn't stay on is useless. It doesn't matter how good the silk is if it's on your pillow by 2am.
Blissy offers 4 styles, all relatively similar in construction. If the standard fit doesn't work for you, your options are limited.
Muriersilk offers 9 styles with fundamentally different closure mechanisms:
- Elastic band: SilkRuffle — classic, simple
- Half-elastic back: ForeFree — designed specifically for long hair
- Dual tie-back: BowTie — fully adjustable, works for any head size
- Turban twist: DuoTwist — best for thick/natural hair
- Wide band turban: CoilBand — preserves curl volume
- Tie-back turban: KnotTie — zero forehead pressure
If you've tried a bonnet before and it didn't stay on, the issue probably wasn't the silk — it was the closure type. More options means a higher chance of finding the one that works for your specific hair and head.
Who Should Choose Which?
Choose Muriersilk if:
- You need a specific closure type (turban, tie-back, wide band)
- You have long, thick, or natural hair that standard bonnets can't handle
- You want silk gloves, scarves, or socks (Blissy doesn't carry these)
- You want a kids' bonnet
- You prefer lower prices on comparable quality
Choose Blissy if:
- You want a silk pillowcase (their specialty — we don't make these)
- You want pajamas or robes
- Color variety matters most to you (30+ options)
- You prefer buying from a brand with extensive social proof and reviews
The Bottom Line
Both brands sell genuine mulberry silk. The material quality is comparable. The real differences are in product variety, fit options, and price.
If all you need is a basic silk bonnet and you like Blissy's color options, go for it. But if fit has been a problem, or you need accessories beyond bonnets and pillowcases, Muriersilk's collection gives you more options at generally lower prices.

Blissy invests heavily in marketing — influencer partnerships, social media ads, and content creation. That marketing cost is factored into the product price. The silk itself is comparable to other premium brands.
Muriersilk has more closure options designed for curly and natural hair.

You can find silk bonnets on Amazon for $20-40, but verify the material carefully. Many Amazon listings say "silk" but are actually polyester satin.
