Would you sleep in heidi braids?

[BellCat]

Im thinking about sleeping in heidi braids since it keeps my ends safe but could the 'no damage' hair ties and bobby pins damage them?

I would think it'd be hair-safe, though if you're worried, try doing it with a silk scarf (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Q_Rk5SOOWM) rather than pins?

I agree with pepperminttea..the scarf idea is more hair friendly than using bobby pins.

OMiGosh!!! I can't WAIT to try this!!!!!!! It'll be so refreshing for Kareem so see me go to bed with cute hair... instead of an old lady cap... ;)

ETA: Thanks for posting this! Lol, sorry, I got excited!

That is totally cute, I am currently in the process of moving house... so all of my scarves are packed away but as soon as I am settled I think this hairstyle will be my new favourite :D

this is so cute, i am going to use this hairstyle at night :)

[Fairlight63]

That looks so cute! I have to try it. It looks like it would make pretty hair waves also.

I don't have a scarf so I am thinking of making me one out of some silk material that I have. So, I was wondering what measurements to make it. What size is your scarf?

[eezepeeze]

I love that scarf idea. I don't have one long enough, but I do have ribbon, so I think I'll try that tonight. I always sleep in heidi braids on oiling nights to keep my hair away from my face, but never thought of doing it like that. Clever!

I sleep with heidi braids all the time! No damage & they make great waves :)

What a cool idea! When my hair gets down to shoulder length, I am definitely going to try this!! :) Thanks so much!

I have done so - quite frequently, too! But then I used hair taping to keep them in place, and my reason for sleeping in them could be described as pure laziness - though considering that the process of braiding, pinning and then sewing the braids into place usually took about half an hour, maybe I was not so lazy after all.
Nowadays, throwing my hair up into a simple bun takes me about half a minute... ;)

Wow, that's a very cool updo! Nor only for bedtime. Though it's more a summer look :) I wish I had such dark hair, it looks better with a scarf.
Huge thanks for posting this link :flowers:

I read an LHCrs idea of getting the end of her braids wet(I use a little aloe vera gel sometimes) and they would stick together without any tie. Yes! I do this now and it is great! No tie and I 've been sleeping in Heidi braids. No tangles when you wake up! Good luck! Anything to keep our thin ends from getting any thinner, right~Oh, I use a sleep cap too.

I just tried this, I love it! (The scarf tutorial, that is!) Thanks so much for posting it.
It's a bit too unstable for me to consider for bed... but I'd definitely wear it in public :) It's even making me consider going out to show it off! :D
