Morning Crisis- How To Avoid Waking Up A With Bedhead

Happy Superbowl Sunday!! In honor of "helmet hair," we decided this post would fit the day best.

Most of us, at some point in our lifetime, face the problem known as beadhead. Some of us have small cases of it, others, well, that may effect your whole day! Here's some advice on how to avoid waking up with a birds nest on top of your head.

Use product! This may seem like a bothersome chore, but in fact it actually helps your hair grow faster and (if you buy the right one for your hair, that is), it makes it appear and feel very smooth.  I use this when my hair is wet:

"It's A Ten" Miracle Leave In Spray Conditioner

Wear Your Hair In A Braid. Overnight, keep your hair sustained in one simple braid. Although you may wake up with small waves, it's easier to straighten/curl hair that is consistent in shape and not knotted up.  

Put In A Headband. In the morning, pop an elastic headband on for a minimum of two minutes. Here's why: some hair can take shape overnight, and sometimes it sticks to your forehead. To even out both sides of the part in your hair, use a thick elastic headband. When you take it off, your hair will be even and have the perfect shape!

Basic headbands such as these Goody elastics work well. Also, Lululemon has good thick headbands.
