Can I wear a toupee when I go to sleep?
Yes! There’s your answer straight away! This is especially true if you are wearing a high-quality hair system designed and supplied by Toupeec. However, the fact is that your hair system will probably last longer if you do not sleep in it but no one really wants to go through the hassle of removing it every night and then reattaching it the next morning. Plus, it could also be a giveaway that you are wearing a hair system if you are not sleeping at home. It means, there are a few steps you could take when you sleep in a hair replacement systems.
Sleeping with the right pillow.
Your pillow choice may seem like a mundane choice but it will actually make the biggest difference to the well-being of your hairpiece. Most of us use cotton or polyester cushions which can actually be very damaging for hair and hair systems. When your head rubs against a cotton pillow there is a buildup of excess friction and your hair and hair can get pulled in different directions. That's why we would recommend using a silk or satin pillow if you are going to be sleeping in a hairpiece. The smooth surface of the silk pillow helps reduce the friction against the hair of your hair system resulting in less hair loss and less movement of your hair system.
Sleep-friendly room.
This point is more about good sleep habits in general but the better you sleep, the less you will toss and turn during the night and the less pressure there will be on your hair system. First of all, get into good habits and make your bedroom a place for sleeping. Don’t use it as a place to watch TV or play on your phone. You want it to be easy as possible for you to fall asleep so you do not want your brain to be stimulated by any bright lights from electronic screens. Secondly, think about your mattress. Make sure you have the mattress that ensures optimal sleep for you. Finally, this is more of an issue during summer or in warmer climates but think about the temperature of your bedroom. You do not want to be too hot when you try and go to sleep. Check out these summer hair systems that will help you keep it cool while sleeping!

You will quickly notice a lose hairpiece when you are trying to get to sleep. So, always check that your hair system is completely secure before going to sleep.
