  1. Brush Your Hair Thoroughly.

 We often forget to brush and detangle before going to bed and this is a mistake that costs us a lot in the long run. While it is not recommended to over-brush, simple detangling can go a long way to cure damaged hair by evenly distributing the oil from root to tip.

  1. Dry Your Hair Before You Sleep.

 If you are in the habit of taking a shower before bedtime, it is highly advisable to dry your hair first before getting under the covers. It is also recommended to use a hair Protectant spray or serum to protect your hair from getting damaged while you sleep.

  1. Braid Your Hair Before Bed.

 Most people are in the habit of going to bed with loose hair. However, if you want to protect your hair from split ends and other problems, the best hairstyle is a loose braid. This style will also help to get those lovely waves that everyone adores!

 No need to spend hundreds of dollars on expensive hairstylists when you can easily achieve the desired look while you snore. For tying up your tresses, don’t use metal or rubber hair ties. The most recommended accessory to use for hair is a silk scrunchies.

  1. Use a Silk Pillowcase.

 You must have heard about the benefits of sleeping on a silk pillowcase when it comes to the health of your skin and hair. Although it is considered a luxury to use a silk pillow, when you consider its long-term benefits it becomes clear that it’s, in fact, a great investment. Silk helps to retain the moisture in your skin and also contributes to reducing bed head and split ends.

  1. Apply Hair Mask Before Going to Bed.

 Overnight hair masks are now widely available on the market owing to their success and popularity in controlling certain conditions related to dull and lifeless hair. It is not very difficult to use because all you have to do is comb one through your hair and put on a shower cap.

 If conditioners don’t suit you, or you find it too much of an effort to use a conditioner every time you take a shower, using a hair mask at night would definitely solve all your problems. These masks are especially designed for frizzy, curly and damaged hair.

  1. Wear a Sleep/Shower Cap.

 Talking of wearing a shower cap, it is actually good for your hair health to cover your hair while you sleep particularly if you want to preserve a professionally done hairstyle. These caps are also known as satin hair scarves or bonnets, and they are now easily available on the market. They are designed to retain body heat while you snore. However, if you don’t have a silk cap or scarf available, you can also use a regular shower cap.

  1. Use a Humidifier in the Bedroom Before You Sleep.

 Dry environment of the bedroom can be damaging not only for your skin but also for your hair. It is a good idea to invest in a humidifier so that you can enjoy all the benefits this device brings in the context of overall health and well-being. Proper ventilation and humidity help to prevent your hair from getting dried out and lock the moisture inside.

  1. Use Banding to Dry Your Hair Before Bedtime.

 People with curly hair can now shorten their drying time by using this popular method known as “Banding”. It is recommended to stretch your curls before going to bed so that your hair wouldn’t look as frizzy as it normally does.

 All you have to do is take some coconut oil on your hands and apply it all over your hair.

 Split your hair and tie both sides using a long ponytail holder all the way from top to bottom. If you need to use more than one hair tie, do so. This method helps to stretch your curls from the roots and if you keep it like this overnight, you can actually expect to see beautiful natural curls in the morning.

     Conclusion.

 Many a times we neglect the importance of hair care before going to bed. However, it has been found that doing only a few simple things can greatly improve the texture and health of your hair.

 These steps also prevent split ends, bed head and many other problems that we normally face. Prepping your locks before you hit the hay also includes things that you must never do to your hair.

 If you have been using an old pillowcase, for example, it’s time you replaced it with a silk or satin pillowcase to protect your hair from getting damaged. Moreover, it is not a good idea to sleep with your hair down.
