If you have been natural for five minutes, you know the importance of taking care of your hair at night.  How you care for your tresses at night is important because your night time hair routine could be helping or hurting your hair!  Now we all know the biggies-- sleep with a satin pillowcase, satin bonnet, and whatnot!  But what do you do if your fro is humongous and the regular bonnet just don't work anaymore?  What about locs-- what else can I use than a bonnet??  Keep reading a learn about a few new items:
 
Big fros and lots of locs alike can enjoy this larger bonnet by Silky Wraps!  This bonnet has some sagginess to accomodate volumous hair, and makes it a good deal at $19.99.  For larger sized bonnets, this is comparable to different makers.  I also like EboniCurls, and Flor Bella Boutique on Facebook, and they sell similar versions at similar prices.
 
 
 
Teach your little diva good hair care early with this child sized bonnet by Shamooz!  Their bonnets come in fun patterns with an adjustable band.  Shamooz suggests these bonnets for girls ages 3-10.  There is a long processing time-- they are shipped within 21 business days. 
 
 
The dreadsock is a good option for lengthy locks that may not fit into a bonnet.  It can be a little tricky to put on in the beginning according to the reviews I have read, but it is easy sailing after that! These can be purchased online here.
 
 
The popular loc soc (or loc sock) can be purchased at www.soclocsoc.com.  They typically cost about $12 can hold longer locs and sisterlocks.  The material is a poly blend that is safe for locs to protect them from lint and other fibers.  They come in an array of colors and can be purchased from numerous retailers. 
 
 
How do you protect your hair at night?  Do you use other nightwear than those listed?  Please share your nighttime routine!
