Here’s are my tips and tricks for curly hair at bedtime so you wake up with great curls.
Struggling to get great curly hair on Day 2? You’re not alone.
I received a great question from Eve in my Hair Romance Facebook group, who said:
What can I do with my strong willed curly hair before bed to stop waking up to an insane frizz ball ?

I know the struggle of curly hair at night. I move a lot in my sleep and there’s no chance my curls will survive until the morning. I do have a few tricks that have changed my hair for the better. It all starts with pineapples…
Pineapples for curly hair?
The pineapple is a curly hair technique where you pile all your hair on top of your head. You sort of look like a pineapple!
You can use a scrunchie or loose elastic to hold your hair but I prefer to use this clip. It’s really comfortable to sleep in.

Live curly hair styling in the morning
Now to really see it in action, this was a live demo I did on my Facebook page to show you exactly what I do in real time.
Switch your pillowcase
It really does make a difference when you change your pillowcase from cotton to silk. Not only is it lovely on your face, but your hair will be so much less frizzy too.
Silk pillowcase hack – I travel with a silk scarf to wrap around my pillow when I’m not at home. You can pick up vintage scarves for next to nothing and they also make a great accessory during the day.

Did you find a clip for us readers. I need one for my daughter. Thank you
Hair Romance says
Hi Lissa! Yes there is a Scunci clip that is similar that you can get on Amazon – https://www.amazon.com/Scunci-Slip-Crown-Thick-Colors/dp/B00BLPXAO6 xx
Rochelle says
Thank you for the tips, I too have been trying to find the clip and I’m unable to. I am based in the UK, any ideas as to where I can purchase one?
Thanks in advance 🙂

I wanted to let you know that I live in the US and I absolutely cannot find any web site (other than one that would charge me 39 US dollars) that will deliver your wonderful hair clip to the US. I also have been unsuccessful in finding it on Amazon. Do you have any suggestions? I have spent many dollars on trying to find the perfect clip. Thank you so much!
P.S. your curls are gorgeous!!!
