She said no bonnet

6/18 Edited to

... Read moreAs a parent of a curly-haired child, I completely understand the struggle of convincing kids to wear bonnets at night. My daughter initially resisted too, seeing the bonnet as only for sleeping or simply uncomfortable. What I found helpful was involving her in the process—letting her choose fun and colorful bonnets helped her feel more excited about wearing one. Explaining to her how bonnets protect her beautiful curls from breaking or becoming tangled overnight made a difference, especially when I showed her the difference on mornings after nights without a bonnet. We also started a bedtime routine that includes gentle moisturizing and using a satin pillowcase as an alternative when she refused to wear a bonnet. Remember, consistency and patience are key. It's okay if they resist; sometimes, just embracing the 'morning fluff' is part of the journey. Sharing stories with other parents or engaging with the #CurlyHairKids and #KidsWithCurls communities online can offer support and creative ideas. Over time, kids often come around when they see how much their hair improves and how comfortable it feels to protect their curls overnight.

🔥 When you don't have a bonnet try this..😉
All you need is a silk scarf not satin...keep your twists and hair moisturized 👌🏽 I do this all the time when I can't find my bonnet and my twists never come out crimped or bent if that makes sense 😆 it's actually better than a bonnet to me because sometimes bonnets make my twists be

Swipe to see a cat in a bonnet! (Majestic!)
This cat has joined my team ever since I found it on top of a lily pad and it gave me quick side quest. I completed it and leveled up. I unlocked a cat in my save house. Ever since it just sits on things and wears new hats everyday. #cat #blackgirlwithcats #meow #MEOW

Satin/Silk bonnet benefits
For starters it doesn’t absorb oil so your hair is going to retain its natural oils, i know i personally toss and turn throughout the night your bonnet will help reduce breakage and frizz while you sleep 🫶🏽 i used to never sleep with a bonnet now i can’t sleep without one #haircare #lemon8c
