    Have you ever experienced this situation? When you wake up and are faced with messy and knotted hair, you will be very agonizing and even in bad mood all day. In fact, you don’t know what happened when you fall into a deep sleep. Whether you sleep with your human hair wigs or your natural hair, here are still some ways that can truly protect your hair while you sleep.

    Brush Hair Before Sleeping

    It is a good habit to comb your hair before you go to bed at night. We sincerely recommend using a natural bristle brush or a wide-toothed brush to gently brush the hair from the root to tips for one minute, Which can allow healthy oils of the scalp to evenly transfer to all hair, thus making your hair soft, shiny, and free of tangles.

    Of course, it would be better to use a brush specially designed for human hair wigs to brush your HD lace wigs

    Upgrade Your Pillowcase

    As we all know, cotton pillowcases are easy to grease the scalp and face, but silk and satin don’t. What is more important, silk pillowcases can help your hair retain moisture throughout the night and reduce friction, thus reducing hair damage and smoothness. And the slippery smooth texture of silk will perfectly prevent tangles and frizz.

    Furthermore, if you don’t have enough budget to buy a proper silk pillowcase, you can also wrap your hair in a silk scarf to sleep, which can protect your hair from rubbing against the cotton pillowcase while sleeping, especially curly hair or curly human hair wigs. And it is a great idea to use a sleep cap to protect hair while sleeping. We might even say it is the best way to wear hair to bed to prevent breakage.

    Don’t Sleep With Your Hair Tied Up

    Believe it or not, you could damage your hair while you sleep. We often notice that too many people spend too much money on great haircuts, trendy hair colors, and expensive hair care products, but go to bed with a ponytail tied by a rubber band at night. You have to know rubber bands will put unnecessary pressure on your hair and scalp, and even could leave unsightly creases on your hair.

    Do you know how to tie hair while sleeping for hair growth? Instead of necessarily tying up your hair with a rubber band, you should remove the rubber band to let your hair and scalp relax, especially when you are sleeping.

    Seize A Good Time To Treat Hair At Night

    There is no doubt that nighttime is a good chance to repair these damages for severely damaged hair and split ends. You can pour a small amount of lemongrass or jojoba oil into warm, mix well, apply the mixture to the damaged hair, and then twist your hair in a bun or braid.

    In order to avoid the oil stick to your silk pillowcase, you can wrap your hair with a silk scarf or other microfibers towels to patiently wait for the conditioner to work its magic while you fall asleep. Don’t wet hair your or take a shower the next morning. When your hands have already been wet, you can take some shampoos into your palms and rub them to foam, then apply these foams directly to your hair, and start the routine of your daily shower.

    Twist It Up

    Nothing is better than twist your hair into a bun on the top of your head and secure it with a velvet band before you go to bed at night. Why using a velvet band to tie hair? That is because the velvet band is gentler than using a rubber band directly and not easy to leave a rubber band mark on your hair.

    And when you wake up the next morning, you will even gain some natural waves after loosening the bun. Of course, the visible extent of these waves mainly depends on the texture of your hair. For example, if you have fine and soft hair, these waves are possibly not very obvious; while if you have rough and hard hair, you will get defined waves.

    Never Sleep With Wet Hair

    Many people are used to taking a bath and washing hair at night, but usually fall into sleep with wet hair or half-dry hair, which will cause many damages to your hair. So do lace front wigs. Do you like to wash your hair at night? If so, keep in mind to wash your hair early at night and give yourself one or more hours to let your hair air dry before sleeping.

    After all, the hair is the most fragile when it is wet. Therefore, it is necessary to dry your hair completely to prevent your hair from tangles, frizz, and even serious breakage while you sleep. In addition, the moisture of your wet hair will seep into the pillowcase, thus multiplying bacteria on your head and leading to hair dandruff.

    Massage Scalp Before Going To Bed

    According to the data, massaging the scalp before going to bed can stimulate blood circulation and blood flow to your hair follicles, accelerate the metabolism of hair bursa, thus helping the growth of the hair and making hair shiny and pliable, prevent your hair from falling off, and even delay the senility of the hair. So helpful! Now go to massage your scalp regularly!

    Remove Your Hair Bundles In Advance

    Although hair bundles and human hair wigs can give these people who are suffering from hair loss and want to add some volume and length a natural look, sleeping with them at night will cause too many tangles, which may lead to some irretrievable damage to your hair bundles. Therefore, it is important to remove your hair bundles or human hair wigs before sleeping.

    Avoid Sleep In Dry Room

    We all know dryness can wreak havoc on our skin, but we generally don’t realize it also has a similar or the same negative effect on our hair. So in order to keep hair from getting dried out, you should often open the window for fresh air and make sure the room is not too dry.

    Now you may already know how to protect your hair while you sleep, keep in mind these tips and take some actions quickly.
