You may be wondering why there's need to protect your hair when you sleep, and from what.
Well unless otherwise, most of us sleep on cotton bed sheets and cotton pillow cases. Cottton unfortunately absorbs moisture from our hair while we sleep.
You could experiment by adding some oil in your hair tonight and observe how oily your pillow, not your hair, will be tomorrow morning. Plus the friction between your hair strands and the cotton fibers could actually cause breakage.
So, how then can you protect your hair?
You can protect your hair from the drying effects of your cotton pillow cases by covering your hair with a satin or silk scarf, a satin bonnet or by sleeping on a satin pillowcase.
Why satin? why silk?
These two materials do not dry out your hair and there is little friction with your hair.
The benefits of wearing a satin bonnet or similar head covering include: minimizing tangling, frizz, damage and general sleep wear and tear.
Ladies how do you protect your hair at night?????????
