100% Silk Scarf: Designer or Regular

[Paisley]

If a head scarf is 100% silk, do you prefer it to be a name brand, at a higher cost?
Or
Would you purchase a less expensive one, still 100% silk, but none name brand, at a lower cost?

Regular. 100% silk is 100% silk. I'm not paying more for a name brand one

I have never understood the lunacy in buying things because of brand. There was a time when brand meant something and you were actually paying for "better quality" but nowadays, some brand names of whatever look so cheap in construction/appearance that one's better off learning to sew and making their own "designer" items.

Need I mention that I'd go for cheap?

I get mine off of ebay for a 2-3 bucks a piece. considering what I am going to do with it, it does not make sense to invest more

I agree!!!

I use a no-name 100% silk scarf, Hermes ain't gonna make my hair grow faster.

im sleeping in it,
no offense to whoever does but i dont walk around with a scarf on my head,
so for me to sleep in a Louis scarf is just stupid..

I get mine at the thrift store some are name brand some are not but I never spend over 5 bucks

I don't put a lot of stock in designer brands, but if I was going to buy designer scarves I wouldn't use them to sleep in. What's the point of getting moisturizer and oil all over it?

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

I mean, really is this even a question? mean no offense, but really, seriously?

mine is designer, nothing serious though Nicole Miller think I paid $24 for it at filenes, I can never find them for $10 or under

100% silk is 100% silk, why pay for an authentic Coach scarf when it will constantly get dirty with product? Less expensive all the way for me.

 

[MekyakaKinkerbelle]

Who would pay $$$ for a designer silk scarf that you sleep in, gets oiled up, tied in knots, wet, etc? AND WHY???

 

[lushlady]

For a scarf that I am going to sleep in, there is no way I would pay more than $10-and that is pushing it. Now for something I would wear as an accessory I would pay more.

I have an Anne Klein or whoever she is 100% silk scarf and I have a noname......I like the no name better theyre both 100% silk and were both cheaper!!

I bought a leftover bolt of some 100% silk on ebay about a year or so ago and just cut it up to suit my needs. I would never buy a designer scarf to wear @ bedtime.

I buy from anybody who I can get them from for no more than $5 including shipping but have paid as little as $2.00 (and that's pushing it ) I usually look for 35x35 squares (I have a big head )... use the search term, "vintage", "square"... a lot of times the seller will have more than one, so you can get a few for less than $10... there are not always the most attractive scarves but they are silk which is more important

IMHO:

TJ Maxx's & Marshall's have the Best Selection of 100% Silk Scarves on the Clearance Rack/Table. Excellent Prices. Name Brand or at the very least High Quality Silk Scarves.

I've been wearing the Prettywrap for about the past 4-5 months. I love it. It stays on all night (no slipping, sliding...nada) and it keeps your hair in place & moisturized.

I get my silk on the remnant table at JoAnn's and run a quick seam around the edges. Works for me!
