Best Nighttime Haircare Routine with a Silk Hair Turban and Raw Silk Hair Towel
Healthy Hair Routine
A great nighttime haircare routine can make all the difference in how your hair looks and feels in the morning. If you’ve been struggling with frizz, split ends, or dry hair, it might be time to switch up your evening regimen. One of the most luxurious and effective ways to protect your hair overnight is with a silk hair turban.
In this post, we’ll walk you through the best nighttime haircare routine featuring a silk hair turban, plus tips for washing your hair and using a raw silk hair towel to reduce frizz and increase shine. Follow these steps for hair that’s smooth, shiny, and healthy every day.
Step 1: Wash Your Hair with Care
A solid haircare routine starts with gentle cleansing. When washing your hair, choose a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair hydrated and healthy. Avoid over-washing and aim to wash your hair no more than three times per week as this can strip your hair of its natural oils.
Step 2: Use a Raw Silk Hair Towel to Dry Your Hair
Once your hair is clean, the next step is drying. Instead of using a regular abrasive cotton towel (which can easily over-dry your hair) or a synthetic microfiber hair towel, switch to our natural raw silk hair towel.
Why a raw silk hair towel works:
- Reduces Frizz and Breakage: The smooth fibers of raw silk help reduce friction and abrasion compared to traditional cotton towels. This minimizes frizz and prevents hair breakage.
- Enhances Shine: Raw silk contains a protein called Sericin, which provides many health benefits to natural hair including increased shine and moisture retention.
- Avoids Over Drying: Silk absorbs moisture at a slower rate than cotton or synthetic microfiber hair towels. This allows natural hair oils to remain instead of stripping them from your natural hair.
To use your raw silk hair towel, gently squeeze the excess water from your hair. Wrap your hair up in the raw silk hair towel and allow it to absorb moisture naturally. Relax post-shower for 15-20 minutes or longer for best results. This method will leave your hair looking smooth, shiny, and frizz-free.
Step 3: Apply a Lightweight Hair Serum
The next step in your nighttime routine is adding hydration back into your hair. Before you put on your silk hair turban, apply a lightweight serum or hair oil to your damp hair.
Why it’s important:
- Moisturizes and nourishes hair.
- Reduces frizz and split ends.
- Keeps hair smooth and shiny.
Look for products with natural oils like argan, jojoba, or coconut, which nourish your hair without weighing it down. Apply a small amount to the ends of your hair and work it through to prevent dryness and damage.
Step 4: Secure Hair in our Silk Hair Turban
Preserve your hair while sleeping with our silk hair turban. Silk helps to reduce friction, lock in moisture, and prevent hair breakage as you sleep.
Tips for different hair types:
- Straight Hair: You can leave your hair loose or gently twist it into a low bun without using a hair tie. Tuck it into the turban.
- Curly or Wavy Hair: Gather your curls on top of your head by turning head upside down and apply the silk hair turban. This will avoid flattening at the top.
- Long Hair: Either twist your hair into a high loose bun or secure your hair into a loose braid. Apply the silk hair turban and tuck hair inside.
The silk will protect your hair, minimize frizz, and keep it hydrated throughout the night, so you can wake up with healthier, shinier hair.
Tip! Our silk hair turban features an adjustable elastic band for a secure fit that stays on all night. Make sure the elastic band sits behind the ears and directly on the hairline to avoid indents on the forehead when you wake.
Step 5: Morning Hair Routine
When you wake up, you’ll notice that your hair feels softer, smoother, shinier, and much more manageable than it would if you had slept without protection.
Avoid heat styling – Silk turbans help reduce the need for heated tools. If you must use heat, opt for a low setting. For overnight heatless curls, consider our Mulberry Silk Hair Rollers!
Conclusion
By incorporating a silk hair turban and a raw silk hair towel into your routine, you’re giving your hair the care and protection it deserves. These two silk products are the ultimate combination for reducing frizz, preventing breakage, and promoting smoother, shinier hair.
