How to pick a cooling pillow
Cooling in a pillow comes from three places: the fill's airflow, the cover's fibre, and the surface area touching your face. Shredded fill and latex breathe better than a solid memory-foam block; percale cotton and lyocell covers move heat and moisture away faster than knit polyester.
Gel layers feel cool on contact but that effect fades once the surface warms. Airflow is what keeps a pillow cool through the night.
Loft by sleeping position
Side sleepers usually need the highest loft, roughly five to seven inches, to fill the gap between shoulder and ear.
Back sleepers do best at a medium loft, about four to five inches, so the head does not tip forward. Stomach sleepers need the thinnest pillow they can tolerate, often under three inches.
When to replace a pillow
Most foam and fill pillows are due for replacement every 18 months to three years. Signs include lumping, a permanent dent, waking with neck ache, or needing to fold the pillow to get support.
Wash or replace pillow protectors regularly; they are the reason a pillow does or does not stay hygienic.
FAQs
Can I wash a foam pillow?
Solid foam should be spot-cleaned only. Shredded fill in a removable cover is easier: wash the cover, air the fill.
Why does my pillow feel flatter after a few months?
Fill compresses with use. Fluffing daily helps shredded fill; solid foam that has taken a set needs replacing.
Does a cooling pillow help night sweats?
It can reduce trapped heat at the head, but bedding and room temperature matter more overall.
