I preserve and protect my curls while sleeping. I do this by using "The Pineapple method". This includes
lazy mid-day nap times too! This method works for me. I just wake up and fluff my hair to my liking :)
I have been on the CG method since January 2012. And so far I to say that I love this method. It works great for my hair and lifestyle. My hair is softer and my curls are always defined. I love this shine I get with along with all the moisture.
I started the CG method last month and so far so good. I've been using Tresemme Naturals Aloe Vera and Avocado Nourishing Moisture Conditioner for co-wash and as a leave-in. My hair comes out very defined and my curls are usually soft after the I've fluffed my air dried hair.
