Could this be true?

I was told by my stylist that when working out one should not wear a scarf because the friction causes breakage. I have been wearing my hair in a clip but of course it never looks as good as it did before working out. What do u ladies think of this concept?

I could see what she is saying. I personally fold a silk scarf to make a headband and I use that around my hair perimeter. I think if you are using a silk scarf then you shouldn't have problems. Plus its the way you use it. I can see how using a cotton scarf with a knot tied behind your head while you Kick and punch in tae-bo class could cause issues though

lol That is what I used to do. I would have my hair in a pony and wear a scarf around my hair. But I guess im better off without it because most "satin" scarves are mixed with another type of fabric and can be a little rough. I went to the fabric store around my way a few weeks ago and the "silk" they showed me felt like BSS satin. So im currently stuck with satin.

Call around to some fabric stores and ask if they carry pure silk. Then you can go get 1/2 a yard of it.

I sometimes wear a silk scarf. If you're wearing protective styles like buns, I sometimes will add moisturizer and seal with oil before workout because my hair dries so much from the sweat.
