When you slipped off to dreamland, you had perfectly styled hair; however, when you woke up, those treasured tresses went flat or became a frizzy mess. You can extend the wear of a wavy or curly hairstyle by preparing your head before you lay it on a pillow.
When you slipped off to dreamland, you had perfectly styled hair; however, when you woke up, those treasured tresses went flat or became a frizzy mess. You can extend the wear of a wavy or curly hairstyle by preparing your head before you lay it on a pillow. Skip the morning hair drama and stop wasting time redoing your do by maintaining the hairstyle overnight.
Step 1
Slide satin pillowcases on your pillows. The satin fabric does not rub your hair as much as cotton fabric.
Step 2
Bend over at the waist, gathering your curls in a loose ponytail on top of your head. Use your hands to pull up the hair.
Step 3
Tie the hair up on top of your head with a fabric-covered ponytail elastic. This kind of hair accessory will not leave creases in your hair when you take it down.
Step 4
Remove the fabric-covered ponytail elastic when you wake up and shake your hair loose. You may need to freshen the ends of the curls with a styling spray, a leave-in conditioner or water.
Tip
If you want to maintain a complicated updo, sleep wearing a shower cap or wrap your head with a scarf.
