The Best Time to Wash Your Hair, According to Your Hair Type

Summary: Should you wash your hair in the morning or at night? It all depends on your hair type! If you have fine hair, wash it in the morning. Rubbing your head on a pillow at night makes your scalp produce more oil, so a morning wash keeps your hair bouncy and clean all day. If you have thick hair, washing at night is actually better because it helps keep your natural oils intact.

But beware: you should never sleep with wet hair! Water weakens the protein bonds in your hair, making it very easy to break. Sleeping on wet hair can also cause nasty scalp bacteria and breakouts. If you absolutely must sleep with damp hair, use a silk pillowcase and put your hair in a loose braid.
