How to Make Your Hairdo Last Overnight
- 1). Wear a satin bonnet or scarf regardless of the type of hairdo. Use bobby pins or hair clips to secure any hair dangling along the hairline and nape area. Although this will help to protect the style overnight, you will need to finger comb or gently shake flattened areas of the style in the morning.
- 2). Pull your hair up into a loose, high ponytail using a scrunchie. This works particularly well for long, curly hairdos. After you create the ponytail, spray your hair with a firm holding spritz or hair spray to help hold your curls in place. In the morning, remove the scrunchie and finger style.
- 3). Apply a non-flaking gel or mousse along the hairline, the sides and back when wearing updo hairstyles. These areas are more likely to crinkle or fall out of place overnight. When done, tie a satin or silk scarf around your head for extra hold and added protection.
- 4). Pull your hair back into a loose, low ponytail. Let it hang loosely or secure the remaining hair against your scalp with bobby pins or hair clips.
