For Short Hair
Wrap a bandana around your head to hold everything in place. Any type will do, but I prefer silk. If a bandana isn't strong enough to hold make your hair look good enough, you can also wrap a cotton t-shirt over the bandana to keep it all together.
Braid your hair before going to sleep. This old trick works every time and is one of the best ways to wear your hair when sleeping. It not only protects your hair – stopping it from tangling and breaking – but also gives you gorgeous beachy waves the next day and cuts down on frizz.
For Straight Hair: Low Ponytail
No matter the length of your straight hair, sleeping in this hairstyle will help prevent unwanted tangles. We suggest using a silk scrunchie and also resting your head on a silk pillowcase. This will aid in minimizing frizz to ensure you wake up to smooth, straight strands.
It is best to sleep with your hair down if your hair length is short. This also lets the air flow freely through your hair, which makes you sleep more comfortably. On the other hand, if you have long hair, it is recommended to tie your hair loosely to prevent knots and breakage.
If your hair is frizzy when you wake up, it might be crying out for some moisture. Before you go to bed, scrunch a leave-in conditioner into the ends of your hair (not the roots). The extra moisture should help to tame the frizz and keep your hair looking silky and smooth.
Protecting your hair while sleeping minimizes breakage and hair fall significantly. Using a silk pillowcase, applying hair oil, tying up your hair, and using hair masks can protect your hair while sleeping. Loose buns and braids are suitable hairstyles to prevent hair damage and hair fall while sleeping.
Use a silk scarf or cloth and tie it like a hairband to make sure your hair does not touch the pillowcase. Once you wake up, flip your hair upside down, gently separate the hair and flip it back up. Resist the urge to brush your hair, as it causes more friction and frizz,” recommends Sabanayagam.
What is pineappling hair? The pineapple hair technique, a term coined by the NaturallyCurly community, is a way to protect your curly hair when you sleep. Done correctly, the pineapple hair method creates a beautiful pile of curls on the top of your head, which resembles the shape of—yes, you guessed it—a pineapple.

Use a silk pillowcase or hair wrap
The friction caused by tossing and turning on a pillow for eight hours a night can be one reason for frizziness in the morning. Swap cotton for a silk pillowcase, to reduce friction. These can be better for your facial skin, too.
But since your metabolism slows down at night, so does your hair growth, explains Waldman. Goddard adds that the primetime hair growing hours are between 10-11 a.m. and 2-4 p.m.
If you're using an overnight product in your hair, first comb it with a wide-tooth comb and tie it in a loose braid. Remember not to use metal or rubber hair ties. Instead, go for a soft, silk scrunchie or headwrap. Avoid tying your hair up too tight as it will only lead to hair breakage and damage.
The way in which you choose to sleep does not have an impact on hair loss, whether you sleep on your side, back or stomach. Hair follicles are not affected by the direction in which you sleep, so there is no reason to worry about damaging your hair and causing premature hair loss.
