Reply With QuoteVery different. I try to change my pins. Sometimes I sleep in loose hair, sometimes in a loose bun or in a braid (over the nape or braided at the top of my head).
I don't have a night cap. I would like to have one.

A normal braid or sometimes a french braid. Loose hair gets snapped or tangled. I have a silk cap but haven't every gotten in the habit of wearing it, maybe I should try again!

Re: How Do You Wear Your Hair to Sleep?
I’ve tried several methods. In the early days of WO I put it in a microfibre buff (snood type thing) and tied the top corners so hair was enclosed. The hair requires no brushing when it’s taken off next morning. I’ll probably do this again this winter as it keeps your head warm. Sometimes after washing I’ll put it in a top pony plaited into a bun slightly damp. Mostly it’s loose and i pile it up over my pillow. I would like to try a satin cap but I’ve a small head so finding one to fit would be an issue

It stays on all night, and feels OK when I’m lying down, but feels like it’s trying to eat my head when I sit up. It crawls down over my face

Oh now that interests me, thanks I will check it out. My head circumference is barely 50cm though!I’ve just bought a satin cap from Only Curls, a UK website. I’ve got a small head too
Re: How Do You Wear Your Hair to Sleep?
I don’t know mine but I have a 56cm baker boy hat that is too big for me
ETA: I can’t measure at the moment but I’ll measure the circumference of the cap later tonight to give you a better idea Feral
ETA2: The inside circumference of the cap is about 50 cm, although my measuring skills leave much to be desired and I got numbers above and below that figure, I think 50 cm is the best average.

One loose English braid for me, nice beachy waves and no tangles in the morning
Re: How Do You Wear Your Hair to Sleep?
An high ponytail the first days (the pineapple style), english braid the last day/days, depending on how much it loses definition.
Re: How Do You Wear Your Hair to Sleep?
I waffle between a single French braid and a cinnamon bun secured loosely with a srunchie, which seems to stay the best for me. I usually wear a satin bonnet as well, but recently got some satin pillowcases and have already noticed they're also quite gentle on my hair, so may forego the bonnet occasionally from now on.
Re: How Do You Wear Your Hair to Sleep?
Just recently found a way of sectioning an english braid that is actually comfortable for sleeping. Prior to that it was loose and tossed over the pillow.
