Are you having trouble deciding weather to buy Linen sheets vs Cotton? The popularity of cotton sheets can be attributed to several factors. For one, this natural fiber offers great versatility as a bedding material. However, Linen is also a popular bedding material for several other reasons. Made from fibers of the flax plant, linen offers natural breathability and moisture-wicking properties, making it ideal for warmer temperatures. If you're struggling deciding between the two, this video will help you decide which is right for you.

    Linen > cotton I’ll never go back to cotton. Linen is so cool and over time feels like soft whipped clouds and they wrinkle so sexy Aesthetic and gorgeous feeling.

    I read that Linen also has a higher frequency than cotton and helps the body heal. Linen has a frequency of 5000 and cotton is only at a 100. Hospital use linen to help heal patients so there is another great reason to go with natural linen fiber bedding and cloths.

    Linen lasts longer due to the fiber being much longer. The cotton fibers are shorter, so after washing and machine-drying they come off, making much of the lint you find in the traps. So linen, or hemp, are best if you are thinking longevity. Which means you should pick a classic, non-fad colour. You want your grand-children to enjoy them as a legacy!

    Don’t get casa Luna linen sheets from target. They look gorgeous except they are linen and all the reviews claim they don’t even last a year and show pictures of thinning and holes where people sleep. Linen is suppose to let long but not in the case of that brand and they are expensive.

    Was never sure about linen and what it was. It says it's flax fibers. Is that always the case, or are there companies out there saying that the material their products are made from is linen but it really isn't natural but rather something manmade and they're trying to trick us? It gets so tiring having to research every product because of these tricky companies.
