3. Pineapple Your Curly Hair
The Pineapple Method is a curly head’s best friend. The term pineapple comes from scrunching all of your curls to the top of your head and wrapping it in a ‘high ponytail’ on top of your head while you sleep. With curls, you don’t want to comb them too often because it will stress the curl pattern, so sleeping in a pineapple a few days helps to maintain your natural curls. When you awake, you simply shake and rake your curls, reapply moisture and go!
