    I either do a loose-ish top of head braid that I can direct over the top of my pillow at night or just pick up my hair, lay down, and drop my hair into the space above the pillow. I also wedge a second pillow between the mattress and bed frame to keep my hair from dropping over the edge of the mattress to hang toward the floor because that pulls. I'm a master tosser and turner but my hair stays pretty much out of my way.

    When I had very long hair, I would put it in a braid while sleeping.

    Gather it up on the very top of my head and secure with a large alligator clip. All very loosely because I can't stand to feel anything pulling.

    When I was in the hospital my Mom braided me hair on each side. that was comfortable for me and I could sleep.

    Or you could go bald

    I use a scrunchy thing (don't use ponytail holder...too tight) and pull it up in a pony on top of your head...No hump, and not uncomfortable either. Looks frightening, but that's for my husband to get over, haha!

    I have actually never thought of it, it doesn't bother me, sometimes I'll just pull it behind me if I'm sleeping on my side so I'm not on it but other than that I don't do anything different

    It's so annoying! I try o put it in a loose bun on the top of my head but it comes out and I ends up under my back, pulling my neck. If I make the bun tighter it just gives me a headache. I should just chop it but I don't wear short hair well.

    Just leave it down, then you can scoop it out of the way if need be. My hair is almost to my butt and has been for many years and I never sleep with it back for any reason.

    It doesn't bother me in the winter, but in the summer, I french plait it every night.

    If my fiancé rolls on it, I kick him. Simples.

    Same here.

    I've always had long hair and it's never bothered me much when I sleep. Bothers me more when I'm awake. I wear it down or in a ponytail to go to bed.

    Oooh, atop the head is a good idea. As is the bun. And anything that might save my waves for a second day is a-okay with me.

    my daughter has really curly hair and i put several braids in it to encourage the wave.
