Never let anyone dull your curls.” No, not even your sleep.
Curly-haired girls need to take special care of their lovely locks. Or, their natural curls may become unhealthy. The TLC of curls is a little different from straight or wavy hair. Making any mistake while sleeping with curls can make them flattened the next morning.
Here’re some practical tips on how to sleep with curly hair.
# Don’t Squish the Curls under Your Head
Use a clip or a scrunchie to tie your hair into a loose ponytail. Lift the pony up while lying down on the bed. Make sure that your curls are not getting squished under your head or neck. Rather, the back of your neck and head should touch the pillow. This trick guarantees plenty of bounce and lots of volume for the A.M.
# Use Satin Pillowcases
One of the major factors in how your curls will look depends on what type of pillowcase you’re using. We suggest you choose satin pillowcases. The blending of smooth fibers makes satin. Hence, when your curls will glide over satin, the curls will not snag on. Moreover, satin doesn’t absorb oils from the hair. So, your hair will remain moisturized. Apart from these, satin pillowcases are cost-effective too.
# Wrap Your Hair with a Silk Scarf
If you ask us, ‘Should curly hair be wrapped at night?’ we will say, ‘Definitely’. Do it without a miss. To protect your natural curls, wrap your hair with a silk scarf. But, not make the wrapping too tight. The wrapping prevents your hair from getting tangled. Relative friction between the hair and the fabric of the pillowcase is reduced. This, in turn, brings down hair fall.
# T-shirt Turban
The T-shirt turban method is also an easy way to prevent your curls from flattening. Unlike a silk scarf, the t-shirt will stay in its place. Watch this video to learn how to plop curly hair with a tee.
# Apply a Hair Serum
Whether it’s day or night, managing frizz is very frustrating. Curls get dried very quickly. Moisturizing the curls daily will help to restore their shine. Therefore, apply a serum before heading to sleep. A couple of pumps will work to give you soft curls.
