Naturals: How do you wear your hair to bed?

[WhipEffectz1]

Well, I am out of cornrows at this moment in time and I would like to know how some of you wear your hair to bed.

 

[testimony777]

I wear mine in one or two braids, and I cover it with a satin scarf.

Whatever style I have in my hair, that's how I wear it to bed. My last twist styles were worn to bed as is --- I just wrapped with a satin scarf.

If I'm wearing a 'fro, then I take the headband down and wrap the scarf around my hair. The same goes for braidouts and twistouts as well. All it takes is a little fluffing with your fingers or a spritz of water and my hair is back to the way it looked the previous day.

It's when the scarf falls off that I begin to worry!

I'm like testimony.
I part my hair in four sections and braid or twist it in some pseudo/wannabe bantu knots. I wrap it all in a satin scarf.

 

[lsubabiedee]

however my hair is, i just stuff it under a scarf and go to bed.

 

[Natakue]

i either wrap it in a satin scarf, put on a satin bonnet, or sleep with it wild and free on a satin pillowcase.

 

[carameldiva]

i'm different. I oil my scalp and ends at nite, then spritz with my moisturizer, put on a thin plastic cap and a satin scarf on top.

 

[Natakue]

ooh, that sounds like your hair would be super soft the next day!

I wear twists most of the time so I just divide my twists into three sections, apply some cream & oil to my ends and baggie them. When I don't baggie, apply a little spritz (mix of conditioner and water) to my hair and braid making 3 braids. I then put a little oil at the ends. I always sleep w/ a silk scarf and satin pilliowcase.

Either in a pineapple or a loose, low ponytail. I use satin pillow cases and/or cover my head.

 

[joyous]

I make four braids and tie with a satin scarf.

Since I started taking care of my hair:

When it’s natural (non pressed) - I oil my scalp with caster/essential oil mix then put some OG carrot oil cream on my hair and braid it into 3-5 braids at night cover it with a silk scarf and a satin pillowcase.

When it’s pressed- I oil my scalp with caster/essential oil lightly, and lightly oil my ends with hot six oil mixed with peppermint. Then brush my hair into a wrap and put on a silk scarf.

If I have a twistout, I put in a satin scarf or if I plan to do a wash n go the next morning, I just sleep on a satin pillowcase.

 

[JustKiya]

When it's in twists, I just slap a silk scarf on them. If it's loose - I just slap a silk scarf on it. If it's braided....hmmm... I'm starting to see a pattern here.

Yeah - the only time I go to sleep otherwise is if I'm DC'ing or hennaing my hair (both of which I do overnight) in that case - it's a cotton scarf on top of a showercap.

 

[naturallylovely]

before i got these micros in my head, i just put my hair in four braids and put on my scarf....

 

[miss Congeniality]

First, I damp my hair and put big twist in. Then put a baggie on.

 

[chocolate01]

When I wear twists I pull them into a ponytail and cover with a scarf after misting with water and glycerin. When I wear my hair straight I wrap it and tie my scarf.

 

[BerrySweet]

Throw on a scarf and let it be. I should braid it up but I'm too lazy. I'll unsmush it in the morn when I co wash it.

 

[Bublnbrnsuga]

I just fall asleep on my satin pillowcase (or hubby's chest).

 

[Candiss]

I just tie a scarf around my hair.

 

[Poohbear]

At night, I wear my hair loose most of the time or sometimes in twist or 2-4 puffs

 

[remnant]

When my hair is not braided I wear 4 big twist and sleep on my silk pillowcase!

 

[IrisDaVirus]

Three or four loose ponytails. I cover them with a satin bonnet.

Usually i'm bad- lol so i wont put any type of protective oil or scarf over my head...but i'm attempting to start a new routine where I wrap at night after oiling my whole head and applying a few growth aides...When my hair gets longer then I can attempt a variety of protective styles like braids or twists..
