Will sleeping with the hair in a ponytail damage the hair alot, the reason why i'm asking is because my hair tend to get messy in my sleep or is it just better to have it loose?
dont do this until you can tie a very low ponytail... you pull your hair alot and its just not good.
i find the best way is to wear your hair clipped up and you can get silk like shower caps, when i wake up my hair is really straight and shiny
Another vote for the extremely stylish satin sleep cap...I wear mine over a bun. Yesterday, had to get up at 4am, and forgot it was on until I was on the freeway out of the city...baby girl pink too. O.o
I'm not much of a tosser and turner...last night I washed when I got home and went to bed with damp hair down...just a few tangles this morning, for which I thank the modal sateen sheets and silk pillowcover...as much as I liked my luxurious cotton sheets, they were tangle monsters.
I would think wearing a ponytail in bed would be more damaging than wearing it loose because the band might be rubbing against the hair more???
I usually sleep with mine in a 'tail, and it seems to hold up OK.
You may want to look into a satin (or other "slippery" fabrics) pillow-slip if you feel that damage is happening at night. I know that I have much better "luck" with tangles and what-not with satin pillow-slips than cotton ones.
Hi
Simon
I wear mine in a ponytail all the time while im sleeping as it doesnt get as tangled as much as it does while sleeping with it down or loose as you say but ive been told its alot safer to wear a segmented Ponytail while sleep or Braided ( Plait ) in your hair but i forget to segment it or braid it also you will get less hair breakage wearing it in a tail or braid

I have a ponytail almost the whole time now, because it's still a little annoying worn loose, but hopefully with more length i can have it loose a little often.
MY HAIR IS WAIST LEGNTH. I PUT A PONY HOLDER IN IT HALF WAY DOWN AND HANG IT OFF THE HEAD OF THE BED NO PROBLEMS
Don't sleep with a ponytail. It will cause a lot of breakage around the base of the ponytail.
If you must, then tie the ponytail at the top of your head. That way, the weight of your head won't be on the base of it.
