Ladies...How do you keep your hair (African American) in tac

I'm black, however I wear my hair it its natural state 100% of the time. Before I cut it I would do big twists prior to going to the gym. Wrap it up at night, and then I would undo the twists in the morning and style as usual. Hopefully, other ladies can chime in!

HI! First of my ethnicity is plural.. i'm a mixture of African American, Caucasian and Native American...sooo my hair is very very curly..however I mostly wash and straighten it and then I wrap it at night...this way I won't have to wash it but once a week...(Women with my kind of hair will understand). ANYHOW,, When i workout I wrap my hair and use a satin scarf...then I shower then when i take it down it's like CURLY/FRIZZY NON-STRAIGHT! lol..some girls I've spoken with before just say wrap it up...WHAT are your methods that have worked...I don't have the time to wash it every day nor will that be good for my hair....AND i wear it curly w/ mousse in the summer but it's tooooo darn cold for that now... Any and all suggestions appreciated!
