Post last updated: 09/02/2023

Beauty products which work wonders as we sleep are some of our favourites.

With minimal fuss, overnight hair masks work to enhance the appearance of your hair as you sleep meaning you have a few more time to focus on other things, like getting those extra few minutes in bed in the morning!

Overnight hair masks can do wonders for your hair including promoting hair growth, hydrating dry locks and restoring brittle strands. To use an overnight hair mask, simply apply the hair mask of your choice to clean, damp hair before bed. Cover your hair with a shower cap or silk scarf and let the hair mask work its magic overnight. In the morning, rinse your hair with cool or lukewarm water to prevent frizz.
