For a while, I was nervous that we were not properly caring for our hair at night because we did not use sleep protection. That was until I noticed our hair, growing and thriving.
Now I’m confident in our night routine and wanted to share four reasons why we go scarfless.
The girls haven’t mentioned it hurting their heads, but they typically take them off before going to bed. Every time I’ve attempted to wear one I woke with a headache.
From head-to-toe, the less we have on the more comfortable we are.
We’ve tried scarves, durags, satin-lined caps, fitted bonnets, satin-pillow cases all which come off in the middle of the night.
… and since I don’t sleep with a head scarf, neither do they.
Braids.
They definitely look frizzy quickly, but the hair is still soft, thick, growing and thriving so in my mind it’s healthy.
Is your family like ours? What problems have you encountered with sleeping caps? What other methods do you use to protect your hair at night?
Until next time...
