Say Bye Bye to bed head with a silk hair wrap
So you’ve invested your precious time and money in hair extensions or a hair system. You step out of the salon looking and feeling more than a bit gorgeous, only to sleep on it and wake up with a serious case of bedhead. Why does this happen?
Your bog standard cotton pillowcase is the culprit.
When you wake up and your beautiful hair resembles a bird’s nest, it’s because:
- Cotton is absorbent so it literally sucks the moisture out of your hair leaving it looking and feeling dry.
- When you toss and turn at night and your head rubs against your cotton pillowcase, it causes friction and rubbing that leads to matting, tangling, and that familiar bedhead look.
But before you panic and rush out to buy products to tame your hair, you can restore it to its former glory by investing in a silk pillowcase and some silk hair accessories, like silk hair wraps and scrunchies.
No, this is not indulgent, it’s an investment and an insurance policy that will protect your crowning glory. Let me tell you more.
Here’s how you can say bye bye to bedhead with a silk hair wrap.
So in my other blogs, you might have seen that I’ve raved about the benefits of sleeping on a silk pillowcase, but if you want to keep your hair extensions or hair system looking beautiful for longer, you can invest in some silk hair accessories that you can wear day or night.
Why you should wear a silk hair wrap
Silk hair wraps feel gorgeous, look glamorous, and they work. If you wear one for bed, the silk hair wrap cocoon’s all of your hair within its silk interior and prevents friction and tangling from occurring when you move around. Your hair is protected and will just glide against the super soft material. There are other amazing benefits too, like:
Extending your blow dry:
If you’ve spent an hour in the salon or you’ve spent ages blow drying your hair or creating big and bouncy waves or a smooth sleek finish, the last thing you want is for it to be ruined the first night you sleep on it. A silk hair wrap will protect your style and help it last that bit longer. Just slip off the silk hair wrap in the morning, give your hair a gentle brush, and use your fingers to reinvigorate the va va voom!
Ending your ‘greasy roots, dry ends’ battle
Wearing a silk hair wrap will keep your hair hydrated as silk is not absorbent like cotton so it won’t steal any moisture from the lengths and ends of your hair.
No more bedhead!
Say goodbye to matting, tangling, and knotting when you wear a silk hair wrap to bed. It eliminates friction and gently protects your hair through the night.
Improving your overall hair health
When your hair becomes dry and tangled, it’s more prone to breakage and damage which is the last thing you need if you are trying to encourage healthy natural hair growth.
Wearing a silk hair wrap can protect your hair from damage and breakage, and keep it healthy, shiny, and nourished.
A word on silk hair scrunchies
As well as wearing a silk hair wrap, another great solution to protect your hair extensions or natural hair is wearing a silk scrunchie. You can wear it at night to prevent matting and tangling, or by day instead of tying your hair up with a standard hair tie which can cause damage and put tension on the hair. Have you ever taken a hair tie out of your hair and looked at the amount of hair that comes out with it? Exactly.
This is why you need a silk scrunchie in your life!
