Do you go to bed with your hair down? It’s a common mistake. Time to change your habits. Find out how to tie your hair for sleep to avoid damaging your strands.
Taking care of our facial skin is routine for many of us, but we often give too little attention to our hair. It usually comes down to a quick detangle or applying conditioner—if we remember.
Interesting hair care tricks can be found online. We focused on videos by the TikToker known as @zdrowowlosa. We took a closer look at her hairstyle for sleeping.
Pin your hair before bed
Sleeping with your hair down, which rubs against the pillow for several hours, leads to the need for morning styling. And as we know, every minute counts in the morning. However, you can simply use the trick recommended by the TikToker: use a clip and make a "snail" out of your hair. This method ensures that hair, pinned with a clip, doesn’t get tangled. Simple and effective. "My favorite hairstyle for sleep," the influencer admitted.
Before creating a nighttime hairstyle, you should consider your hair type. People with thick and lush hair can also braid it. Meanwhile, those with thin or sparse hair should opt for loose updos.
Avoid these accessories
When arranging your hair for the night, avoid springs and elastic bands with rough textures, as they can pull your hair. Tight ties also leave marks on the hair, weakening its structure, leading to split ends and breakage. The safest are clips and loose pins, as well as silk scrunchies.
How to take care of your hair in the summer
In the summer, our hair is exposed to the sun, salty water, and pool chlorine. Proper care is essential to enjoying healthy and beautiful strands. Moisturizing conditioners and masks are essential to maintaining their elasticity and healthy appearance.
It is very important to use thermal protection cosmetics, which protect the hair from high temperatures. Also, remember to wear head coverings. A hat or scarf will protect your hair and scalp from UV rays.
