What Do You Do with Your Hair at Night?

[Lucie]

Now that my hair is getting longer, I have no clue what to do with it at night. I cannot wrap my hair for the life of me and I hate sleeping with anything on my hair. TIA!

Because I'm doing protective styles right now. I keep mine in a pony/bun, so I just wrap a scarf around my head. When I wrapped it, I would put two or three curlers in the crown for volume, then wrap the rest of the hair around them. If you just can't sleep with anything on your head at all, you probably need a satin pillowcase.

I would suggest a nice satin bonnet. You can barely remember its there.

Not much. I sometimes braid it in two braids and sometimes just one braid. I sleep on a satin pillowcase but I don't wear a cap or a scarf. I haven't had any breakage from doing this.

These days... I usually remove my phony-pony , re-moisturize , baggie and cover with my satin bonnet.

same here (plus a bun).

I recently got a silk bonnet and I love it.

 

[Isis]

I wear a silk or satin scarf to bed, covered with a silk bonnet and sleep on a silk pillowcase (in case everything slides off! ).

i love my satin bonnet. I just put my hair in a pony and put my bonnet on and i'm good to go!

 

[Soul♥Flower]

Apply moisterizer, braid hair into four, put on a stocking cap(doesn't come off), and a scarf

 

[SerenityBreeze]

I moisturize my ends, twist hair up and clamp w/ a bear claw very loosely. I sleep on a satin pillow.

 

[Sweet_Ambrosia]

I braid/twist my hair up, and cover with a satin bonnet.

 

[LovelyLionessa]

I moisturize, seal with oil, set my hair in a twistout or 2 bantu knots, put on a silk scarf and call it a night.

 

[PinkAngel]

I moisturize my hair, extra on the ends sleep w/ a satin bonnet.

 

[sassyhair]

I just throw on my satin cap, scarf or doo rag.

 

[Lucie]

Thanks so much ladies. I think I will try the satin bonnet

With the bonnet, are you placing your hair in a particular fashion or do you just leave it out?

 

[SoniT]

When I wear my hair straight, I wrap it and put on a silk scarf. When I wear curly styles and rollersets, I pin curl it and wear a satin bonnet.

 

[sassyhair]

when i put on my satin bonnet, I usually roll my ends under and it sorta keeps the bump on the ends.

 

[Blu217]

I french braid it, curl the end under with a Solar curler and sometimes tie a scarf around it. If I don't feel like pinning I just sleep on it as-is. I have a silk pillowcase.

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

After putting on my oils and s-curl (mostly on muh kitchen area) I make two princess leia buns, secute them with satin scrunchies, and cover with a silk scarf. I sleep on a satin pillow case because I'm a wild sleeper. I forgot to add that they're off to the sides (sorta behind my ear because even though I primarily sleep on my back, I like to sleep on my sides from time to time. When you take out the buns in the am, your hair is wavy with a loose curl on the end.

Hi Lonei,

When I'm using S-Curl I place a plastic cap over the ends w/ an ouchless band on top of the bag, then put the satin cap over my entire head. If I'm using my ORS Olive Oil Moisturizer I do the "mohawk rollerset" and put the satin cap over it. HTH

Wow. That sounds like a great idea for when my hair grows out a little more.

 

[Cichelle]

I put it up in a pineapple and sleep on a satin pillowcase. No bonnets for me.

 

[MissYocairis]

I wear a satin scarf and sometimes a satin bonnet (depending on the hairstyle) and I also sleep on all satin covered pillows....of course, if I'm sleeping with SO, I don't wear anything. I still have my satin pillowcases though so, it wouldn't be so bad 'cept he tends to sleep on my hair. My hair really gets pissed off about that. (I need to stop tryna be cute at bedtime when SO is around)

I cant do the ponytail thing so I leave mine out. When I wake up the back is usually curled under so I comb down the top and Im good to go Im so lazy.

 

[firecracker]

Sometimes I tie it up and sometimes I do nothing. I have tried throwing on a baggy to retain moisture but it makes my hair limp. Which doesn't work unless I am wearing a puff, pull back or twist.

 

[sylver2]

I leave hair down, tie with satin scarf with back hanging out. Swoop hanging part up a little and place satin bonnet halfway on head

 

[tenderheaded]

I moisturize, put in a french twist or bun, and zonk out on my satin pillowcase. Most mornings I can just smooth a little leave in and I'm good to go

 

[Babychoc]

I add my moisturizer and either wrap or put in a pony with a couple rollers on the ends.
