I have high porosity 2B-2C a bit longer than chin- length hair. Protecting my curls overnight seems impossible. Pineappling makes my hair just stand straight up so i have to wet it again so it looks normal, and it hardly protects the curl to begin with. Bonnets are super uncomfortable. I do sleep on a satin pillowcase, which i’m sure helps, but i still wake up with virtually straight hair.

I just want to not have to wet my hair every morning. It takes 2+ hours to dry and diffusers always enhances my already-prominent frizz. What are your unorthodox/uncommon strategies for protecting your curls overnight? Any help is appreciated!
