My hair just cannot be contained! GAH.
I usually sleep in a braid, just a french braid usually, but recently even my braid has been getting in my way. It's just long enough to be laid on and wrap around my neck, but not long enough to toss over my pillow and have it stay. I tried tucking the braid but it made an uncomfortable lump at the back of my head, and it wouldn't stay without pins and the pins would pull and shift during the night.
I tried a top knot with spin pins, but that didn't stay put...I woke up to it half unraveled with the spin pin stuck in there...tangled mess. Tried using two spin pins, same thing. After that I got desperate and tried a top knot with a pony tail, but after about an hour or two my scalp was sore and achy and I had to pull it down.
I sleep on a silk pillow case, my hair doesn't tangle to bad, but sleeping with it down is not an option. I wake up with it all over my face and in my mouth, tangled around my neck and stuck in my armpit (yes...my armpit pulls my hair lol) and when I wake up like that suffocated in hair I have zero patience and it just ends up getting yanked and raked through, anything to get it off me.
I do have, I think 4 silk sleep caps and I hate them all with a burning passion. They won't stay on and when they do I sweat profusely (I sleep really warm) and then I have to wash my hair...and the cap because it's soaking wet when I wake up and stuck to my head. Grossness.
I have Amish pins, but I can't get those to stay even when I'm awake. My mom offered to shave my head and I grabbed my hair and ran away from her screaming...lol Help?
