2. Silk Momme Options
Silk Momme affects the weight and character of the finished product.
Sinyoo Silk can develop different silk weights according to the product requirements.
| Momme | General Character | Product Direction |
| 16 Momme | Lightweight | Light everyday designs |
| 19 Momme | Balanced | Classic and everyday |
| 22 Momme | Fuller | Premium |
| 30 Momme | Heavyweight | Luxury |
| 40 Momme | Extra heavyweight | Special high-end designs |
30 Momme Heavyweight Silk
30 Momme silk can be an attractive option for brands developing a more substantial and luxurious bonnet.
It can work particularly well with:
- Double-layer designs
- Long-ribbon styles
- Premium collections
- Luxury gift sets
- Statement designs
However, a higher Momme is not automatically better for every product.
The appropriate silk weight should be considered together with the bonnet size, construction, number of layers and desired product feel.
3. Custom Silk Bonnet Sizes
Size should be selected according to the intended customer and hairstyle.
| Size Direction | Typical Application |
| Standard | Everyday hairstyles |
| Large | Long or thick hair |

| Custom | Specific brand requirements |
Custom dimensions can include:
- Bonnet diameter
- Bonnet depth
- Opening size
- Overall length
- Internal capacity
- Band dimensions
A brand does not have to choose from a fixed size system.
The pattern can be developed around the intended product.
Premium silk brands typically prefer OEM to maintain differentiation and pricing power while most of the new starters will choose ODM to lower the MOQ and test the market。
4. Single-Layer vs Double-Layer
The number of layers can significantly change the appearance and construction.
| Construction | Main Character | Suitable Direction |
| Single Layer | Lightweight and simple | Everyday |
| Double Layer | Fuller construction | Premium |
| Reversible | Two wearable sides | Premium / Gift |
| Custom Construction | Developed around the design | Special projects |
Different Momme weights can also be combined with different constructions.

22 Momme + Double Layer
30 Momme + Double Layer

| Adjustable Band | Flexible fit |
| Long Tie | Adjustable and decorative |
