Many gentlemen might not understand this, but it takes, us, women a lot of time to get ready for the day in the morning. We have to wake up, pick out an outfit, do our makeup accordingly, and pick out matching shoes. All of this, in addition to normal morning activities such as showering, brushing our teeth, and eating breakfast.
We haven’t even commented on the time it takes for us to do our hair. Styling hair in the morning can take the longest of everything in order to get ready for work or school. If only women could wake up without having excess tangles and other hair problems, getting ready for the day might not be as hard. In order to help ladies everywhere with their morning routine, we have assembled a few hairdo tips on how to protect your hair before you go to sleep.
Thorough Wash Before You Sleep
Often, after an exhausting day, you are eager to go straight to bed and completely skip showering. Avoid the temptation; get a refreshing bath instead, and wash your hair and scalp before hitting the sheets. Know that dirt buildup in your scalp can suffocate your follicles and lead to hair breakage. Moreover, sleeping with dirty hair can cause hair tangles in the morning.
Cover Your Hair
Treat your hair to the baggy method at night. Mix oil and conditioner, and spread this all over your dry or wet hair to moisturize. Then, cover your entire head, ponytail or bun with a shower cap, small plastic bag or plastic wrap, to seal in moisture. This preserves your hair length by preventing hair breakage due to dryness.
Tie Your Locks
If you have long hair, it's good to tie it in a pony using a scrunchie (a soft hair tie that's covered with fabric). This prevents you from pulling your hair, which causes your hair loss. For extra long hair, tie near the nape and also near the tips. It's also better to use satin pillow cases to reduce overnight friction that dries the hair and causes it to break.
