How can I keep my curls up??

[ttlayli]

Ladies I love my hair today!! It's curly, thick, and bouncy!!! The problem is that when I finally lay down or go to sleep my hair will be jacked! It's gonna be dried up, mushed, and matted!! erplexed UGH!!!! I have tried everything!!! I get so frustrated when I hear about other curly heads who can "bun" or something else, and in the morning, fluff, and put a lil bit of water and condish and go. I have tried to twist it in a bun and even if I dont lay down, the curls are so messed up I couldnt even wear it in a ponytail. Any tips?? How do you curly ladies do it. And FYI my hair is kinda like a mixture of Cree Summer and Tracee Ellis Ross...except it's maybe not as long...

Awww shucks! For Pokas "process" I would need a silk scarf...I only have a silk/satin bonnet....I guess that would just mash my curls huh?? See this is why I hate wearing my hair curly, because I am far too busy (and lazy I might add) to cowash and have to wait 20 million hours to dry so it can look fluffy and pretty. Ok done venting.

Hey girlie!!! I am DROOLING at your siggy!!!!!!! I cannot wait till my hair is that length when it's curly!!! Anywhoo...I'm gonna try to find a BSS or Walmart that's open tomorrow, since I will be cowashing tomorrow. I braided my hair in two pigtails instead and it work, but it was more wavy instead of curly if that makes sense....I will let you know how my hair is after I try your method!
