10 Hair Tricks To Wake Up With Perfect Hair | Best Overnight Hair Tips

Braid It

Get loose waves as you sleep simply by braiding your hair. Braids will encourage soft loose waves and also reduce tangles that typically occur as you sleep. This will work especially well if you braid your hair when it’s slightly damp and allow it to dry fully overnight in the braid.     Overnight Conditioning Treatments On a weekend, deep condition your hair overnight to help get super healthy and soft hair. While this may not help you wake up with perfectly styled tresses, it will help reduce damage and split ends.

 

Use a Scrunchy

Rather than using an elastic band or hair tie, use a scrunchy to tie your hair back. Scrunchies are softer and come in a variety of fabrics. Look for a velvet or silk scrunchy to reduce damage significantly.

Get a Silk Pillowcase
