But sweat isn’t the only factor causing your pillow to change colors. Natural oils from your skin and hair also contribute to the yellowing process. These oils, along with drool or saliva, can get absorbed into the pillow fibers, making it discolored over time. If you regularly use products like hair oils, lotions, or creams before bed, you’re further increasing the likelihood of your pillow turning yellow. The residue from these products transfers to the pillow during sleep, speeding up the staining process.
So, what can you do to prevent your pillows from becoming like Cam’s infamous “Yellow Pillow”? For starters, wash your pillowcases frequently, as they act as a barrier against oils and moisture. However, just washing the pillowcase isn’t enough. Experts recommend washing the pillow itself every three to six months to remove the accumulated sweat, oils, and bacteria that contribute to the discoloration. Depending on the type of pillow you own, it might be machine-washable or require spot cleaning, so be sure to check the care label.
