How To Sleep Your Way To Better Hair

Perfect hair is only one sleep away. 

A full night's sleep can transform a dull and dreary complexion overnight. Seriously, they don’t call it beauty sleep for nothing. Just getting enough shut-eye can help to produce new collagen, boost blood flow to the skin and minimise the appearance of dark circles. Plus, the right overnight treatments will have you waking up with an effortless, healthy-looking glow. But what about waking up to a good hair day? Imagine not having to wash and style your hair in the morning because you’ve already done the prep work while you were sleeping. 

Well, I’m here to tell you that waking up with healthy, beautiful hair is possible. With a bit of help from the right products, your hair care routine just got a lot easier (and a whole lot faster).

Keep reading to find out how to maximise your beauty sleep and wake up with perfect hair. 

Use An Overnight Serum

Just like a hydrating serum for your face, an overnight hair serum will nourish and add shine so you can wake up to smoother, softer strands. Aveda’s new Botanical Repair™ Strengthening Overnight Serum is an overnight bond-building intensive repair serum that helps to prevent damage and friction while you sleep, so by morning, you’ll have deeply nourished, visibly healthier-looking hair. It also creates an invisible veil on hair strands which helps to prevent damage and friction while you sleep.

Sleep On Silk

Speaking of friction, did you know that sleeping on cotton can tug at your hair throughout the night resulting in tangles and breakage? Talk about a rough night's sleep! Investing in a silk pillowcase means your hair will glide over the fabric as you move around throughout the night, reducing frizz and preserving your hairstyle. 

Don’t Sleep On Wet Hair

Wet hair is much more delicate than dry hair, making it prone to breakage. Combine that with tossing and turning during the night and you’ve got a recipe for a very bad hair day. Always make sure your hair is at least 70% dry before hitting the hay. Try applying an overnight hair serum like the Botanical Repair™ Strengthening Overnight Serum to slightly damp hair before twisting it into a top knot or braids before you sleep to wake up with silky, soft waves.
