My Hair Mats When I Sleep

Yes any texture of hair can experience tangles but kinky type 4 hair is just one knot away from being a dreadlock because our kinks and curls are drawn to each other like rihanna is to a tattoo.

My hair mats when i sleep.

Protect your hair while you sleep. If you are a restless sleeper and move your head about in the night you are rubbing your hair against the fibers of the bedding and are likely roughing up the cuticle of the hair which leads to the hairs catching on one another and knotting tangling and matting together. Okay yeah you could go to sleep with your hair just hanging out but i really don t suggest this method for kinky girls with hair longer than a twa. Speaking of sleeping did you know that hair can also get tangled while you sleep.

2 apply an oil treatment or hair mask if you plan wash your hair in the morning. To combat this we recommend to loosely braid your hair and tie it with a scrunchie before sleeping or tie your hair up in a loose bun. Wrap your hair in a silk scarf or gentle fabric to keep the oil off your pillow covers and let the treatment do its magic while you sleep. The very next morning don t get your hair wet or shower.

Keeping your hair in braids while you sleep is an easy way to prevent tangles from forming. One big braid or a bunch of small ones are both equally effective for this strategy. If you shower or wash your hair at night apply a serum or leave in conditioner while your hair is still damp to smooth and strengthen your locks. This is a good first step to prevent damage while sleeping.

You can now sleep your way to curly voluminous sexy hair. I have also used olive oil. This is due to the friction of your hair against the pillow when you toss and turn. Hold your style with a texturizing spray.

Spoolies curlers can make your hair wavy or curly overnight without using any heat at all. If you do choose to style your hair overnight a texturizing spray is an excellent idea. Simply don t go to sleep without prepping your hair. Okay before anyone goes on an extremely long and unneeded rant i m not african american i m caucasian so i don t want to read any you need to oil your hair better and wash it less i used bronner bros.

I almost felt like both took more moisture out of my hair than there was.
