What do you do with your hair when you sleep at night?

Wrap & silk scarf (thanks to the NY & Co sale I have new ones! ) if flat ironed
Bun & silk scarf if bunned and co-washing
twists/ braids with small perm rods at the ends & satin bonnet for braidout/ twistout prep

Tonite I used some Let's Jam Straightening Lotion (HeatWave) and flat-ironed with my Conair Infiniti SteamStraightner (no steam used tonite) my natural hair. Then I put it in rollers and tied it up with my satin scarf. I'm off to .

Since hair has been in twist just spritz with water mix and rub some coconut oil on my hair and cover with a bonnet. when relaxed I would use a scarf to wrap...or bun

I sleep with a satin bonnet on my hair and just go to bed.

I roll the front and crown with usally about five magnetic rollers, two in the front, three across the crown (usually the blue or the red ones) and clips .I cross wrap the rest of the hair. I cover it all with a silk scarf with the knot in the front. I also sleep on a satin pillowcase.

My silk scarf is cute. I got it years ago from banana republic. It stays on better than the satin ones for me. I have layers and the rollers allow me to have face framing feathers/curls in the front and some body/height in the crown.

I'll either pincurl or bun then throw on a satin bonnet and scarf.

I moisturize and seal with oil then put in 4 purple flexirods if I want just a llittle bend/curl or 8 if I want a curlier look. The flexirods are soft and allow for a great nights sleep. I slip on a satin bonnet over them and off to bed I go. Pin curls make me look like a 60's pin-up model, so they do not work for me. Cross wrapping is very good for a straight look as it does not wear out your edges.

The best you tube video I've seen on cross-wrap is below: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMHDfpv8gzA&feature=channel

Normally I put bantu knots in my hair after applying either Cantu Shea butter, Hawaiian Silky, David Babaii or Oyin Curly pudding to my ends. I then use a scrunchie/kinda to secure instead of bobby pins and put a netted wrap around my edges. I get great reslults this way!

I sometimes wrap it (alternating directions everyday, of course) or I comb it back-- either way, I tuck it under my silk scarf and I'm good to go.

A loose braid or, if I'm feeling extra lazy, the bun I had my hair in before going to sleep. No bonnet, no scarf, no satin/silk pillow. I tried the bonnet thing, but I could never remember to put it on, so now it's under the bed somewhere.

I chose other, I sleep on a satin pillowcase bonnets and scarfs sometimes make my hair sweat and then I have to wash again. But anyway I moisturize and seal at night then braid if I'm stretching or twist if I'm not. Now I've started oiling my scalp and then using satin rollers but its my first night doing that. Before I would just go to bed without any care and I paid dearly lol

I think I've answered already but anyway...

natural hair - plastic cap or silk scarf
flatironed hair - satin covered rollers/silk scarf or "pin curls"/silk scarf
