I am pretty sure the silk and the du-rag are to keep your hair from getting nappy, which in your case is not actually helpful. Wool promotes dreading the most because it tangles your hair up more then something smooth like bamboo would. Silk would have little to no resistance at all, so it would make the lease knots in your hair. movement also makes knots, so the du-rag is keeping your hair from moving, which slows down knotting.So basically let your hair move around by wearing no hat (or a slouchy wool hat) and by sleeping on wool.I hope this makes sense.

dont wear a du rag thats false and the silk is only to keep lint out silk doesnt cause lint to be stuck in dreads never wear a du ragany hat will be a hat but only woll will do what wool doesif u are vegan and object to wool hemp or bamboo is okbut wont do what wool does

I wrap a wool scarf around my pillow when I sleep

I started doing this a few weeks ago and it works very well.

The du-rag is preventing your hair to move at night is that is not a good idea, If i were you i'd get the wool tam.

im kinda weird in a sense cause

i dont sleep with a pillow i have a couple of wool blankets

and i use those for pillows so you could try that if possible
