MY HAIRDO PILLOW IS THE SOLUTION TO MAINTAINING A FRESHLY STYLED HAIRDO WHILE ALLOWING FOR A COMFORTABLE, HEALTHY NIGHTS SLEEP
Invented for Black Women by a Black Woman

My Hairdo Pillow

Birmingham, AL (BlackNews.com) - Black women spend a fortune having their hair styled every week to maintain a salon perfect hairdo. They look great walking out of the salon, but maintaining that just styled perfection requires nights of uncomfortable, unhealthy sleeping positions and mornings trying to restyle the areas that inevitably get flattened. Ann Denson-Willis had spent one too many mornings gorging on coffee and painkillers to make up for the lousy nights sleep and bursitis in her elbow she'd gotten trying to avoid messing up her hair, so she took the problem to task ultimately creating My Hairdo Pillow.
"I'd had enough. I used to get my hair done every Thursday and if I wanted my fabulous style to last at least the weekend, I had to sleep in creative (awkward and always uncomfortable) positions. I'd wake up with aches and pains, rarely got a good night sleep and inevitably ruined my hairstyle within a day of having spent a fortune at the salon. I was desperate to ease my pain and save my mane. I knew sleeping on my elbow worked best to preserve my style, so I started playing around with a rolled up towel and different ways of bending and securing it. With the help of a company in New Mexico, I built a soft, fleece covered, flexible foam prototype with an adjustable strap that would eventually become My Hairdo Pillow."
Designed with the elbow and arm in mind, the unique shape of My Hairdo Pillow mimics the natural sleep position, comfortably cradling the face, chin, neck and shoulder. Users are able to maintain their salon hair style, while awaking refreshed and renewed. Time spent correcting "bed head" is minimized and users often require fewer salon maintenance visits because My Hairdo Pillow allows curls relax in place rather than unravel or dishevel.
My Hairdo Pillow has been evaluated by Birmingham, AL Chiropractor Morgan Wood, who feels that "the therapeutic design of My Hairdo Pillow supports the head and neck for a proper sleeping posture." Additionally, because the ear can fit in the cavity formed by the pillow, hearing aid wearers can sleep comfortably with their devices in place avoiding the feedback or ringing that often keeps them from sleeping safely with their hearing aids on.
My Hairdo Pillow comes in soft and firm density and can be purchased online for $39.99 plus shipping. Wholesale pricing is available. For more information or to purchase My Hairdo Pillow, contact Leslie Guria / 770-573-4694 / leslie@footinthedoo rmarketing. com, or visit www.myhairdopillow. com

[JustKiya]

[Qualitee]

my neck is hurting just looking at it

 

[Kay.Dee]

lol
It was never that serious for me, but this could be perfect for some women

But it's good to see an entrepreneurial spirit. I hope she makes some money!

 

[SimpleKomplexity]

She doesn't look to comfortable to me....erplexed....No thankie I'll pass

 

[Zenobia61]

Yeah, given the price, I'll just roll up a towel in some silk material and call it a day. But it is good to see our creative juices working to solve some of our own issues!!
By the way, Sweetlyblessed..I'm having pulled pork with rice and beans for lunch...gurl, you know it's GOOD!

I agree I wish her great success with her pillow

yep...jealous right here! LOL. I'm on a budget - I'm eating Roman noodles! It's something serious for me right about now. Didn't even have meat to spice it up a notch.

 

[Suerte]

Ummm.... couldn't you just use a breastfeeding "Boppy" or a travel pillow?

"I used to go to the salon four times a MUNT."

"I don't even have to go to the kay-ra-pract-uh."



That made my skin crawl up underneath itself.

 

[mnemosyne]

......no..... My neck is aching just thinking about that.

I use one of those sharper image imitation-tempurpedic pillows that I add to the list of "why I don't want to get up in the morning cause my bed's so comfy"

 

[tiffers]

Sleeping on your elbows, being in pain, taking pain killers and not getting enough rest each night.... Is a salon-helmet hairstyle REALLY that serious? erplexed

 

[motherx2esq]

That was me back in the day. Now, please! I need to sleep.

 

[mrsjohnson75]

She doesn't look to comfortable to me....erplexed....No thankie I'll pass

I agree... Good luck to her though.

Exactly what I was thinking....a travel pillow.

Could those testimonials be any more rehearsed???

Chiropractor, chick iz u surrrius???

 

[HoneyDew]

I wish her good fortune with her pillow!

But, the pillow does not look comfortable. But hey there are ladies here that sleep in magnetic rollers and curlformers. Can't do it.

I don't get those set-in-stone hair styles though. I can put my scarf on at night, bump it up with some Carusos in the a.m. and keep moving.

What about when you want to get "some" in the middle of the night?

There will be no sexual relations while her hair is ''did'' Can't be messin up the helmet with that kind of nonsense!

bwahahah!! Thats too funny and sadly true.

 

[Ms.Honey]

You took the words right out of my mouth.

 

[mnemosyne]

I'm sure they'll come out with an over-bed harness complete with a personal scalp coolant system so you don't mess up your 'do.

 

[TaurusAngel]

I'm guilty of sleeping on my elbows for a style and i still do it. lol, i like the salon look and will not mess it up until a week has officially passed. I would get one if it wasn't so high.

[HAIRapy]

I hope her business takes off. But I can just roll the edge of my normal pillow and get the same effect.

 

[victorious]

Ummm.... couldn't you just use a breastfeeding "Boppy" or a travel pillow?

A travel pillow wrapped in a satin pillow case or half slip works well.

 

[Sweet_Ambrosia]

Just about any kind of pillow can work just the same, I guess for some it's just that serious.

 

[Foxglove]

Give me an hour. I'll find a way to roll off it in my sleep

 

[BotanyGrl]

I'm not interested only because my hairdos are simple. They allow me to roll around and sleep any way I please. I do applaud her ingenuity, and it's refreshing to see African-American women getting involved in the hair market. I know a few women who will buy this pillow and I'm going to forward the site to them.

lol omg too fuuny. yet so true!!!

 

[nomoweavesfome]

Give me an hour. I'll find a way to roll off it in my sleep

my sentiments exactly!

umm I don't mean no harm but...
why the lady with no hair need that pillow for????? She can sleep on a regular doggone pillow.

AND I worked for a chiro before. The word on the street is to sleep on your back ALWAYS by chiros!

 

[Ms.Joi]

That's it right there. As soon as I saw the shape of it that is what I thought. I am glad someone else noticed it. I used to sleep on my daughter's, but it was never to save a hairdo .

I agree. I dont need one but one thing gets me. Will you have to sleep in the same position all night? I caint do that.
