Since everyone loses up to 1.5 litres of sweat per night, moisture is also a problem. If the mattress is not sufficiently ventilated, even mould can develop. In addition, the salts and protein contained in the sweat penetrate the cover.

The purpose of a pillow is to fill the space between the mattress and the head/neck in such a way that the cervical spine does not bend and the head is neither tilted up nor down when lying down. Depending on the sleeping position, both the shape of the cavity to be filled between the mattress and the head/neck area and the height of the required support vary. A pillow should therefore be selected so that it supports you perfectly in the sleeping position in which you lie most of the time.

If the bulging force decreases, if hollows are visible in the core or if the foam becomes brittle, it is time to buy a new cushion. For hygienic reasons, a non-washable pillow should be replaced after two years at the latest. Pillows with a foam core last on average about five years. Since loose fillings suffer from material fatigue a little faster (material is “compressed”) and thus lose their bulk and support strength, it can be useful to replace the pillow after about three years or at least have it refilled.

Probably the best known is still the classic feather pillow, which provides the right feather pleasure during a pillow fight. However, the very puffable pillows in the size 80×80 cm with a filling of feathers and down are no longer the non-plus-ultra among pillows and ergonomically not really recommended.

Without a pillow a bed is not a bed - at least for most people it is as much a part of the bedding as the air we breathe. Apart from the “comfort factor”, the most important requirement of a pillow is that it optimally supports the neck area during sleep. There is a large selection of pillows made of different materials with different fillings in various variations available on the market. For the layperson, it is often too large to reliably find the pillow that allows the most comfortable and ergonomically optimal lying position.

Ionic hair dryers use negatively charged ions, which quickly degrade positively charged water molecules and thus shorten the drying time. Since negatively charged ions do not open the hair cuticle, the hair strands dry smoothly and smoothly. You can use a lower temperature if you dry your hair with an ion hair dryer. When using these hair dryers, the curl definition is retained. While a faster drying time is great, it becomes easy to dry your hair too much, leading to damage while fine hair can look flaccid. Ionic hair dryers are also more expensive than ceramic hair dryers.

Bedrooms with LED lighting open up the option of creating a flexible atmosphere with different light colours: The large selection of LED bedroom luminaires with RGB colour changer offers atmospheric light in the entire colour range. With a targeted search you can quickly find the models in the desired light colours.

Unfortunately a very small amount of sorbents, because of this low productivity (0.3 - 0.7 l / min) (if you say that the water can be filtered faster - don't think it's not possible). You must also use containers to store filtered water. You will permanently disconnect the filter and connect it to the faucet if it is not equipped with a switch.

Most people like to have one or more additional light sources at the bed. This can be in the form of bedside lamps or fixed wall lamps above the bed. Care should be taken to ensure that the light does not dazzle. Indirect or diffuse, soft light is perceived as particularly pleasant. People who like to read a lot in bed should prefer lamps with a rotating or swivelling arm; this way, the light can always be directed exactly as required. During installation, care should be taken to ensure that the light switch is easily accessible from the bed. With toggle or multiple switches, separately switchable lamps can be dimmed, switched on and off as required.

If you have thick hair, you know the difficulties associated with having to air-dry your hair for half an hour or longer or wrestling with your hair dryer! Reduce the drying time with the option of an ion hair dryer. Ionic hair dryers use negative ions to dry the hair (whereby the positively charged water ions are dried). This is a quick method for drying thick and curly hair and prevents frizzing.

Pillows with loose filling should be shaken regularly to maintain their bulkiness and adaptability.For washable fillings it is recommended to wash the complete pillow approx. every six months, the same applies to washable covers of neck support pillows with foam core. If the user perspires heavily or is allergic to house dust, more frequent cleaning may be advisable.

Side sleepers: If you have any kind of concerns relating to where and ways to use superstarshome.com, you can call us at the web-page. The distance between the mattress and the head area is greatest in the side position. In order for the shoulder to sink into the mattress, the pillow must not reach under the shoulder, but only support the head and neck. The recommended pillow size is therefore a supporting pillow of 40×80 cm or 40×60 cm. Depending on the contours of your body (wide or narrow shoulders), the height required may vary - in this case you should try lying on the pillow and have a second person check whether the spine forms a straight line and its shoulder axis is at right angles to the mattress. If your neck area is considerably narrower in relation to the width of your head, you will lie most comfortably on an ergonomically shaped neck support pillow, otherwise soap-shaped pillows are also recommended. Back sleepers: If you are lying on your back most of the time, you should make sure that you do not choose your pillow too high. A relatively flat pillow is usually sufficient to keep your head horizontal - it should never be tilted upwards. In this sleeping position, the pillow's main task is to provide correct support for the lordosis in the cervical spine area, so it is best to lie on a flat neck support pillow, which supports the cervical spine by means of an ergonomic elevation in the lower pillow area and does not reach under the shoulder area. If you have a pronounced hunchback, you may need a slightly higher pillow to lie comfortably. Abdominal sleepers: In the not recommended prone position, no pillow is actually needed, since raising the head area inevitably leads to overstretching the neck and bending the spine in the direction of the hollow back. Also, the neck vertebrae are strongly twisted when using a pillow. If you cannot sleep at all without a pillow, you should only use a very flat pillow, in which you should not sink in if possible - only in this way is it possible to breathe without having to turn your head even more. Some manufacturers offer specially shaped pillows for this purpose, which have a hollow in the nose and mouth area.
