have you tried sleeping with you hair wet?

yes,i have tried it once and when i woke up i felt my head aching,super! that's why i don't like sleeping with my wet hair.i let it dry first or the most easiest way to avoid it is,don't wash your hair before you go to sleep. how bout you? have you tried this? what happened to you?

I do believe in this and it has some scientific explanations why it was said to result to blindness. I don't sleep with my hair being wet because it can also cause headache.

Hi, kharlav. I don't sleep with my hair wet. I could never rest properly knowing that my hair is so wet. I would not like the feel of my pillowcase feeling damp and slippery. I know that if I sleep with my hair being wet, I will have a nasty cold when I wake up the next morning too.

I have never heard of getting blind from sleeping with your hair wet. I would be really blind all ready because at night i am so tired and if i wash my hair i will just go to bed with wet hair as i don't really care that it is wet. I know some people would blow dry it because they might wake up with curly and frizzy hair. I will just take a straightner to my hair in the morning and be fine to go with my hair in 10 minutes or less. I sleep with wet hair because im lazy at night when i come home from work.

I've heard this only from my grandmother. She also says that reading after meals is bad for digestion, and that watching tv after a bath or a shower can help your eyes go bad :P I sleep with my hair wet sometimes. This is because I shower and shampoo at night. For some reason, shampoo in the evening makes my hair look and feel better as opposed to showering in the morning (my hair feels kinda dry). A lot of my friends sleep while their hair is still wet. One of these friends say that it helps her hair curl up a bit. I experience the same thing. My hair is thick though, and can't enjoy the perks of sleep-curled hair for long :)

i sleep with my hair a little bit wet sometimes and i dont think it causes any health problem...in winter you could catch a cold, but nothing else i guess

i used to sleep that way when i was growing up. i just put a towel under my hair. my 13 year old goes to bed with wet hair too. no problems with either of us so far.

we believe those issues as they were told by our elders long time ago. and still is a topic of discussion for sometime. we believe them because we just have much respect to our elders. but if i do sleep with my hair wet, and i don't believe this matter, it does not mean i disrespect them immediately. i just don't get the connection of getting blind from sleeping well when my hair is wet.

I wouldn't go to bed with really wet hair purely from a comfort point of view (I dont want the pillow/bedding to be wet as i dont think thats particularly good for the health), but I'll go to bed with damp hair. I cant see how it might cause blindness... a chill maybe but...

I never heard that before however I don't sleep with my hair wet simply because it makes it so messy - either a mass of frizz if if I have been restless or totally flat on one side and uber wavy on the other if I am peaceful :)

First of all by the looks of your post your from the Philippines... ^_^ Most of these beliefs came from our ancestries. People tend to belief because they are given such things as a consequence of their act... Nice to raise a discussion about such beliefs and queries... ^_^

I don't believe that sleeping with wet hair can cause blindness, but I try to avoid it as much as possible anyway. It gives me this really cold creepy feeling because the pillow gets damp and most of the time, I wake up with a massive headache the next day. So I try to make sure my hair's completely dry before I go to bed :)
