Are bandanas a no-no?

I have a ton of bandanas and since I have been coming to this site I started thinking hey I don;t sleep on a cotton pillowcase so why am I wearing a cotton bandana on my head? Do you think it would be okay to wear a bandana if I put a doo rag on under it (doo rag hidden of course).

Welcome to LHCF! It sounds like you are wearing bandanas for fashion. Since cotton sucks out the moisture in our hair, wearing a do-rag underneath would work, but it can probably get hot in the summer (depending where you live).

I like bandanas too and bought a pretty navy silk one at www.tenderheaded.com. I like wearing it during the summer.

Absolutely! The satin should protect your hair, quite nicely.

Thank you for that website Silk bandanas could take care of both issues at once.

I wear cotton bandanas, sometimes I wear them days at a time (I mean, I wash my hair every day, so I don't wear them 24/7- but I will sleep in them).
I don't have problems with them, but like I said, I don't wear them 24/7 so I don't have the loss of moisture issue.
