Sleeping With Hair Extensions
Quick answer: Before sleep, put the hair in a loose braid or low ponytail, use a silk or satin pillowcase, and make sure the hair is fully dry. This stops overnight tangling and friction at the bonds. Book on WhatsApp.
Why hair tangles at night
Loose hair rubs against the pillow all night and knots where your own hair sheds at the root. A little preparation stops mats forming around the bonds, which are harder to brush out later.
The bedtime routine
Brush the hair out, then gather it into a loose braid or a low, soft ponytail. Avoid tight elastics near the bonds. A silk or satin pillowcase reduces friction and helps keep the hair smooth.
Never sleep on wet hair
Wet bonds are weaker and wet hair tangles badly. Always dry the hair and the bonds before bed. In Dubai's climate this also prevents that damp, frizzy morning look.
