How could we have imagined such a question? Rocked most often by pillows imposed during our childhood or sometimes totally disinterested in the importance of choosing a good pillow, we wish to enlighten you on the subject and provide you with all the information we have to facilitate and guide your purchase as best as possible.
So first of all the shape of a pillow does not have the same qualities since the square shaped pillow is an accessory for relaxation and release while the rectangular pillow will more readily meet therapeutic requirements.
Please note that depending on the choice, it is obvious that the pillow will always be comfortable as long as its comfort is adapted to each person, respecting their curves, the desired firmness but also their age and morphology.
Let's take the example of a toddler, this dear toddler at the beginning of his life will sleep directly on his mattress to avoid any form of suffocation or obstruction of his airways.
Then comes the child of about 2 years old who will appreciate a flat pillow without allergenic substance and without shape memory since his neck is flexible and constantly evolving, and his postural alignment still very agitated in permanent research. Very often the pillows suitable for these ages are smaller, rectangular and very flat to avoid body breakages. This allows above all to start getting used to the interest of a pillow and to offer a cozy envelope to his nights by matching the pillowcase to the whole set. In short, a way to approach the night and appreciate the premises of comfort.
But when adolescence and adulthood arrive, the demands are not the same and a pillow becomes essential to achieve a good night's sleep...
So what is a square pillow for? We tell you everything, or almost everything…
As mentioned above, the use of a square pillow is appropriate for an aligned nighttime position. However, it is also the accessory of choice and perfectly targeted to accompany a sitting position in your bed. The square pillow provides full back support and ideal comfort while leafing through your magazine or reading a book or during your digital communications.
This pillow, most often made from a feather, down or synthetic material filling, engages your body towards soothing nights. Square pillows filled with feathers have the advantage of being of natural composition and thus limit all allergy risks. The natural swelling of feathers or down has sufficient firmness and is not aggressive.
We advise you to favor the ticking of your square pillows (cushion covers) in cotton or bamboo fibers. These materials have an original softness and they have the advantage of coming directly from our nature. They both have breathable, absorbent and anti-humidity properties, bamboo with its extraordinary softening power takes care of your skin throughout your night.
Not to mention that the square pillow can also be a simple decorative element of your bed. The accumulation or multiplication of square pillows in a bed, a major current trend, seems to correspond to a less than reassuring economic period as a wish to restore warmth while external human relationships become narcissistic.
So treat yourself, dream of your comfort and stop counting the pillows!
The rectangular pillow, ergonomics cut and molded to our macroscopic appearances for a promising future...
If we are to believe our body contour and if we were mechanically adapted to our pillow, our shoulders should not be in the same place as our head and neck when we are horizontal but rather lower to precisely follow the head-shoulder angle. The rectangular pillow is an organized response for our body and offers interesting therapeutic characteristics.
The rectangular pillow is available with memory foam technology, which allows for very satisfactory body support and molding precision. Note that memory foam has the incredible power to fit the curves of your head by lightening its weight and the pressure exerted, in addition the rectangular pillow perfectly respects the head shoulder angle. This pillow is very well rated and very popular with the general public; its shape is strategic and very contemporary.
This configuration is also practical for minimizing the space taken up by the pillow in the bed and thus optimizing space for the rest of the body.
These rectangular pillows can also combine latex technology with memory foam technology. Latex adds comfort since it acts as a thermal regulator and thus prevents the unpleasant sensations of night sweating. It is also a powerful ally in the fight against snoring. Pillows with a latex core have the advantage of being durable and very ergonomic.
Some rectangular pillows have a double winter/summer side with a velvet covering to cocoon you in winter and a cool fresh side for summer with a guaranteed freshness effect.
Not to mention that square pillows or rectangular pillows are easy to care for, with most having removable, machine-washable covers.
The current trend would be in favor of rectangular pillows for their comfort and design but fashion is a cycle and the importance of your choice is based on the feeling for the square pillow or the rectangular pillow and depends on your comfort/adaptability criteria.
