Hair Tip: Sleeping With Hair Rollers

Sleeping with rollers is far more time-efficient, and it allows you to keep the rollers in your hair for an extended period of time. However, no one wants hair breakage. And unfortunately, hair breakage can happen to any unsuspecting woman who adores waking up to bouncy curls in the morning and it can be pretty uncomfortable if you do not prepare your hair properly. Here are some tips about how to sleep with rollers:



- Put a fabric headband around your neck before rolling your hair. It will be harder to put it on later after your head is full of rollers.

- Put in your sleep rollers or soft foam rollers as you normally would.

- Look in the mirror to confirm that the rollers are secured and that all the hair you want curled is rolled. Secure any pieces of hair that look like they may fall out with a bobby pin for extra hold. The rollers will loosen overnight, so start them out as tight as possible.

- Place a shower cap over your entire head, being careful not to disturb the rollers.

- At night, only roll the top of your hair, the part that won't touch the pillow as you turn. Then wrap or put the rest of the hair in a protective style. That way you keep your hair from tossing and turning on your pillow with rollers in it. In the morning, roll the rest of your hair, and wear it like that until you are almost about to walk out the door.

- Pull up the front of the headband that has been hanging around your neck. It should cover the top part of your forehead and tuck under your shower cap. This will help keep your rollers in place.

- Go to bed and sleep as usual. Sleep rollers and soft foam rollers are designed to be slept in, so you should be able to lay comfortably.

- Sleeping with rollers can cause damage to the hair because they pull at the hair. Securely set hair in the rollers to avoid damage and achieve optimum curls.
