7 Things to do for Better Hair While You Sleep ...

1. Invest in a Satin Pillowcase

I only learned this tip a few months ago and have found that it really works. Sleeping on a satin pillowcase is one of the things to do for better hair while you sleep. Bedhead isn’t an issue if you sleep on a satin pillowcase or one made of a similar shiny fabric. Another benefit is that satin pillowcases are supposed to delay the appearance of wrinkles.

2. Dry Your Hair Well before Bedtime

You don’t want to go to bed with wet hair. For one thing, it can cause mold issues in your pillow which is bad for allergies. Additionally, it can ruin any chances you have of a decent hair day. Take time to dry your hair before bed. If you’re a girl whose hair does better if it air-dries, then wash it early enough so that it has time to dry before bedtime. You’ll notice a big difference in your hair by following this tip.

3. Sleep in a Braid

This is a tip that has been around for years and for good reason. It works. If you want to enjoy bouncy waves in your hair, put it in a braid before you fall asleep. More than one braid can actually work better. You can experiment to see what size braids give you the best results.

4. Treat Yourself to a Scalp Massage

Scalp massages have been shown to stimulate hair growth. But you don’t have to go somewhere fancy to have this done. You can do it yourself while you’re lying in bed. Not only is it helpful in stimulating hair growth but it feels good. It’s relaxing and can actually help you to sleep better.

5. Apply Oil

Does your hair have dry ends? That’s a frustrating hair issue. Thankfully, there are things you can do to fix that. One of them is to apply good quality hair oil, such as something with argon, to the ends of your hair before you go to bed. That gives the oil a good number of hours to do its work.

6. Sleep in a Bun

Sleeping in a bun is another way you can wake up with hair that’s ready for styling. Put your hair in a top-knot bun before bed to wake up with beautiful beach waves. It helps to spray a bit of hairspray on your hair before you put it in a bun. This seems to help it hold the style better. People will think you’ve worked forever on your hair when all you really did was sleep on it.

7. Get Enough Sleep

Yep, this one matters to your hair. Your hair, just like every other part of your body, will show how well you take care of yourself. Eating well, exercising and getting enough sleep are all things that will show on your body. Aim for no less than 7 hours of sleep each night. It can make a huge difference in how you feel and look.
