How to restore your hair overnight

Cómo recuperar tu melena durante la noche

If you have curly hair, the night can be a critical time. You know how your curls look when you go to bed, but… how will you find them when you wake up?

Here are some tips to minimize the damage of sleep on your hair.

The most classic tip of all is to make a high ponytail (or pineapple in curly slang) so that the curls do not get flattened while sleeping. Use a scrunchie, preferably made of silk or satin, and do not tighten it too much. The next day, release your hair upside down and voilà! Instant volume.

Another protective hairstyle you can resort to is braids. Divide your hair into two sections and braid them without tightening too much. This way, you will ensure that the curls maintain their shape and volume and do not get tangled during the night. It’s a quick, simple, and very hair-friendly method.

For sleeping, the ideal is to replace the usual cotton pillowcase with one made of silk or satin. These pillowcases help curls maintain their volume and shape, and by minimizing friction between the hair and the pillow, they prevent breakage and help control frizz.

And if your hair needs a lifeline, you can apply an oil or serum to the mid-lengths and ends overnight. The Hair Oil from Rulls is ideal when used as a serum and will work wonders overnight.

Let the sunflower, coconut, and castor oils in its formula nourish your hair while you sleep! You won’t be able to stop using it ❤️

Wash your hair the next day and you will be amazed by the softness, shine, and body that our Hair Oil leaves.

Avoid sleeping with wet or damp hair at all costs, as well as applying mask-type products while you sleep. Contrary to what you might think, they do not benefit your hair at all.

Having damp hair for many hours weakens it, and a mask on your hair for an excessively long time will cause it to become over-hydrated. The consequences are dull, heavy, and lifeless hair.

Follow these tips and you will achieve flexible curls with volume for longer.
