Keeping the Curl Overnight Empty Keeping the Curl Overnight

Hi, everyone!

I'm going to be using CurlFormers for the first time today after I wash my hair, and I was wondering if you all had any tips for keeping the curls looking nice for more than a day. I'm going to be using the narrow ones if that makes any difference on how to do my hair at night. I also tend to sweat in my sleep (gross, I know Razz), which makes my roots revert, so anything you all know on how to cope with that would be great.

TIA!

I would suggest either pincurling them loosely or putting your hair in bantu knots (thinking the smaller the sections the better).

How do I pincurl? I've heard the term, but I've never done them before.

The best way I can explain is to act as if you are rolling your hair over your pointer and middle fingers. Once you get to the root, place the curl to the side. I will post a link to a fellow CN forum member, tiashauntee. This is the video I used to learn to pincurl.
