When our busy life gets in the way of hair care and skin care, we often end up taking really bad steps to maintain them. These steps might be small and might not seem like a big deal but it is. One of the things that we have all done at one point or the other is washing our hair really late in the night and falling asleep with wet hair.
Going to bed with wet hair is a no for everyone. When the dead skin cells, natural oils, and makeup, that settle your pillowcase mix with wet hair, the results can be not so pleasant. so we at least blow dry our hair before sleeping if we wash our hair late.
It is true that it is difficult to maintain yourself and be punctual at it during your busy life. It is especially difficult during the winter season. We plan it out but by the time we execute it, it is too late at the night. However, the important thing that we should know is that sleeping with wet hair is a really bad step to take for hair health. Wet hair can not only impact your scalp health but also other parts of the body like skin.
we need some basic things to know it can lead to some hair issues like-
When our hair is wet, it is the most fragile. Going to bed with wet hair will only increase the risk of hair damage and breakage. when we sleep, there is a lot of friction against the pillow due to tossing and turning. This increases hair fall and hair breakage. Aside from hair fall, sleeping with wet hair can also increase our chance of getting infections on the scalp. Sleeping in wet hair does not allow the hair to dry fast and some bacteria and fungi thrive in a warm atmosphere. Thus, they can easily thrive on our damp scalps. Most commonly, a type of yeast called Malassezia can accumulate on the scalp and cause flaking, which can be mistaken for dandruff.
