what's your nightly hair routine? do you have one?

[chazza]

I was wondering if I should start a nightly hair routine to either condition or treat my perm-damaged hair, or to style it in preparation for the next day. (like for instance, how stephie does hers here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opdvPNh5e1o) Do any of you guys have your own night hair routines that you do? Please share!

I personally don't do a nightly hair routine.

i've known of some people who use a deep conditioner, then put a shower cap over their hair, and leave it like that while they sleep. then rinse it in the morning. I've never done this though, and overconditioning may cause hair breakage

I don't think overconditioning can BREAK hair, but it can leave build-up and make it more oily or greasy.

I don't have a night routine, but I do have a post-washing routine. I use a thick conditioner and gently comb the hair with it while showering, then wash it out. Afterwards I apply a smoothing balm to the ends of my towel dried hair and comb that through, and sometimes a squirt or 2 of serum.

i wash my hair every other day and use pantene pro-v products. i like using their full & thick shampoo and ice shine conditioner. i use garnier fructis' leave-in conditioner every time i wash my hair, and usually blow dry/straighten it after that if i'm going to wear it down the next day. and once a week i use their nourishing cream (which is amazing.)
