HOW TO PROTECT YOUR HAIR WHILE YOU SLEEP
Did you know that your hair, especially if it’s long, can get damaged even while you’re sleeping? Over time, how you handle your hair while you sleep can in fact lead to breakage and more.
We love to maximize our output, so here are a few ways you can easily manage your hair while you’re sleeping:
BRUSH BEFORE BED
Brush out your hair before you hop into bed. This will help to brush out tangles and helps with being proactive about frizz and matting. Depending on your hair type, experiment with brushes from wide toothed combs to wide paddle brushes. Braiding long hair has shown to be a protective hairstyle especially when you sleep. Secure it with a scrunchie instead of an elastic to minimize friction. For bonus results, sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase.
TAME FRIZZ
Use a bit of Routine Hair Serum while you sleep to tame frizz while you rest. Massaging the hair serum into your scalp before bed can help stimulate blood circulation to your hair follicles, and as a result produces healthy hair growth.This will help to seal in moisture without adding weight or additional friction to your hair. Tuck your hair into a cap (preferably in silk or satin) to achieve even silkier results.
ADJUST YOUR SHOWER TIME
If you’re someone who showers at night, you might want to consider the timing of your shower so you don’t go to bed with wet hair. Going to sleep with even a tiny bit of moisture in your hair can contribute to breakage and matting. Since your hair strands are at their weakest when they contain moisture.
These tips should help to efficiently preserve your luscious locks while you catch your beauty sleep.
