Do you enjoy a nice hot shower before bed to wash away the stress —and grime — of the day? It's a wonderful way to wind down and relax, but there's one downside — going to sleep with wet hair. If you want to ensure that you sleep with a dry, cozy pillow (and wake up sans frizzy hair) it's time for you to meet Dryzzz, the unique pillowcase designed by two savvy moms with a mission to solve the discomfort that comes with falling asleep with wet hair.

The dual-sided DryZzz pillowcase features smooth cotton or satin on one side and an absorbent, towel-like microfiber on the other. The microfiber fabric drys hair quickly and protects your pillow with a thin, waterproof liner. On the nights you don't wash your hair, flip the pillow to the normal cotton side.

The DryZzz pillowcase comes in standard and king sizes and in a range of colors from classic white to florals and other decorative graphics. The standard white cotton that matches your white sheets is available at Amazon for just $23.

If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more, which works if you want to buy a pair of these.)

Customers rave that the pillowcase's innovative design makes sleep easier and prevents the formation of a mildewy smell in their pillows.

“Game-changer,” writes an enthusiastic reviewer. “Saved my hair and my pillow. I shower in the evening after long work hours and don't want to add extra damage with a dryer. The dry side is similar to a towel but softer absorbs moisture and keeps my pillow protected from moisture and mildew smells.”

Another shopper raves: "Genius product! My whole life I've been putting a towel on my pillow to sleep after washing my hair. The towel usually ends up slipping off in the middle of the night and my pillow ends up wet. This pillowcase has protected my pillow from getting wet, and my hair even seems to dry faster. It's of great quality and has held up to numerous washes too. One side has a towel texture and the other side is a regular pillowcase texture so you can flip it when you don't have wet hair. I love this pillowcase!”

Another benefit of this pillowcase is that it seems to help a variety of hair types dry faster.

“I have very fine and wispy naturally curly hair. I don’t want to have to spend an hour or more styling and drying my hair in the morning, but I definitely don’t like soggy pillows, so this pillowcase is great for me,” explains a 5-star reviewer. “It also keeps my pillow from getting discolored. Overall, a good purchase.”

Another satisfied shopper writes, "I have very long, thick hair, and washing it before bedtime had become a nightmare because then my regular pillowcase (and pillow) would get sopping wet. This pillowcase helps to absorb a lot of the extra dampness while I sleep. I plan to buy one for my sister as well."

There’s also another reason to love Dryzzz: The brand donates a portion of every sale to Sofia’s Hope, which supports research to develop cures for pediatric cancer.
