The clean, comfortable, fresh, and light feeling of clean hair before bed is one of the reasons many people choose to wash their hair in the evening rather than in the morning.
Well, from a health point of view, does this habit actually have a negative impact on hair? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. Explained Sally-Ann Travers, consultant trichologist at The Cotswold Trichology Center & Theradome, the habit of washing your hair at night can, sleeping with wet hair can cause hair cuticle problems.
“The main problem with sleeping with wet hair is that the cuticle (outer layer) of the hair lifts more when it’s wet,” explains Sally-Ann, quoted by Elle India, Jpeople (11/25/2022).
Not only that, washing your hair at night has also been revealed by Sally to make your hair frizzy when you wake up in the morning.
“Sleeping with wet hair can make it more tangled, especially if you move a lot while you sleep—it’s hard to comb through in the morning,” she adds.
