Sleeping with wet hair is not harmless as most of you believe. Although there is no scientific evidence that this habit triggers colds, we give you 3 reasons to dry your hair before going to bed.
1. Headache
Your body temperature increases in the REM phase. The body warms up and the moisture on your head wrapped in a towel can cause severe headache.
2. Infections
Pillows are ideal for bacteria growth because they soak up sweat, dead cells and skin oils. Wet hair moisturizes your pillow, and thus creates a perfect soil for infections.
3. Fragile hair prone to splitting
Your hair cracks easily, and the problem gets even worse when it is wet. Going to bed with soaking wet hair is definitely bad to both your look and health.
