Part of our long hair journeys always includes sleeping. To that end some of us use silk or satin pillowcases, bonnets, sleep braids, pineapples and so forth.

I'm not quite there yet, except for a satin pillowcase I got at the Dollar Tree. Yes, really.

Yet I woke up like this. Amazing!

Show us your bedhead!

Right now I'm rocking a serious case of head fuzzies. Bunch of new hairs growing in all over that seem to be curlier than the rest of my head.

In fact the hair in my signature picture is bed head. It is day 1 hair (after wash day), in the morning, as I crawled out of bed (I don't brush or comb, not even finger comb between wash day & day 1). Most of my pictures get taken then. On wash day, the ends are slightly damp still even until late, so it's too dark to snap a decent picture then. I think it doesn't look too too bad. But it's not an accurate representation of anything really. :shrug: Oh well, you pick your battles. LOL!

My hair looks it’s very best the morning after wash day. Sleeping on a satin pillowcase with wet hair means I wake up with these gorgeous waves.

My hair is wavy, so the key is being in sync. (Metaphor time! If a group of dancers all move in sync, it looks impressive. If a whole bunch of dancers—even skillful ones—are all doing their own thing, it looks like a chaotic crowd. So too with my hair. Waving in tandem = nice defined waves. Waving independently = frizz.) The way hair clings together when it’s wet creates choreography for my hair.

I remember one time last year when I was living in a dorm with communal bathrooms. I stumbled to the bathroom half-awake, and ran into the girl from down the hall, who gushed over how good my hair looked. Literally, “I just woke up like this!!”

Thank you :) Yes. It is my natural color. I have virgin hair since birth. Never colored it. The strange thing about my hair is that I have all kinds of textures in it naturally. From 1b to 4c. I have kinky-curly strands, wavy strands, straight strands... and that's what creates this mess on my head so that it looks so big. It's not easy to tame it and when I film my videos the most time consuming thing is to make my hair look presentable and not like an exploded toilet brush. LOL!

I love all the bedhead pics. Wild hair is so pretty.

I've been wearing my hair loose while i sleep, because of laziness and i don't like how braid waves look in my hair these days. I'm shocked at how tame mine is this morning! I usually have some knots to go through.

Sleeping on it sometimes creates some nice natural looking waves. ;)

Hid my face so I don't have to deal with the bags under my eyes, since this was literally at five in the morning. Silk pillowcases and a braid make bedhead way less wild.

Thought it would be fun to resurrect this thread.

Was so tired last night that I didn't even take out my hair stick, I just kind of flopped on the bed and woke up this morning. Yep, this is my bedhead.

Though I did put on a shirt before taking the picture, you're welcome.

It's more tangled than it looks :laugh:

It got me thinking though, when I was a kid I had THE WORST bedhead. As an adult I think the factor I can blame it on is simply... conditioner! I've tried water only washing, and my hair always comes out a tangled mess, but literally any conditioner will leave it managable. It's good to know, I wish I could go back in time and tell my younger self that.

I'm not sure how.:) I think the length helps keep it together perhaps? Usually I sleep it is spread over my pillow over the bed since I don't like sleeping on it! Oftentimes I will wear the same braid for 2-3 days in a row, sometimes longer since it is easy to wrap in a bun each morning, although the longer I leave it in the messier it gets! :silly:

Turns out my bedhead is very uninteresting. :shrug: I know I've posted back views before but I had forgotten. Last night I washed it, let it air dry for several hours, then slept on it loose, and voila:

So I have wavy hair but when I don't use gel I get smooth waves.

After I washed yesterday, I used leave in then brushed, twisted like a figure 8 then clipped with a ficcare style clip. Let it dry like that all day then slept with hair in a high bun. I like the little effort used to get to wake up with it like this.

Although no one has posted on this thread in over a year, having been directed here, I felt moved to comment. Honestly, 95% of you look like you just spent an hour styling your hair into perfect waves or curls! And most of the rest just have a little dishevelment, like you could run your hand over it and THEN it would be perfect. There are only a handful of images that I would have identified as bedhead if they weren't in a thread labeled for that purpose, and none that I would call SERIOUS bedhead, not like what I get.

Frankly, I think that if your hair doesn't look like crazed wolverines mated in it, you don't REALLY have bedhead, LOL!

Probably those are braid waves. Most of us who wake up looking like Ana from Frozen find some way be it braiding or sleep caps or top knots or whatever to avoid dealing with those kind of tangles once it passes a certain length. I think if I had knee length hair, there just would not be enough hours in the day for that. Haha.

Yup. Also past a certain length the hair seems to develop homicidal tendencies if you really toss around. At least that has been my experience.

Yep, if the tangles and disheveled-ness can be easily avoided, why not avoid them? I can’t convince my kid that five minutes spent combing and braiding his hair before bed is less time than 20 minutes detangling his hair in the morning without the braid. Time moves differently at bedtime I guess.

I got serious bed head when it was shorter even before I started braiding at night. Long hair doesn't seem to get as wrecked on the top. I think the weight pulls it down. Bed head was one of the first things I noticed when I cut it off.

This is also true. It has been years since I could wear my hair loose while sleeping so when I think of my bedhead it's what it would look like before around midback. I never really think of my shredded sleep braids as "bedhead", nor the resultant braid waves because they look so nice in comparison.
