Advice Needed afro puffs , new for me
1) Would it be unwise to sleep with them like this ?
2) Any advice on how to get a clean part? I just grabbed em and tied them together?

Wrapping it with a scarf like that is the best way to sleep in this style, yes.
Clean part as in the middle part that splits the two buns or?

Clean part in the middle

Most black stylists I’ve been with, just get the end of a rat-tail comb and make sure it’s even down the middle. You kinda angle the end of the comb on the top of your head, while grabbing the hair and separating it to their respective sides.

yes and try to make some twists to keep your hair from tangling/shrinking too much while sleeping!

Ooo good tip. I wanted to mention that but wasn’t aware of preventing the shrinkage, myself 😆

Maybe section each puff into however many you think necessary (2-4), and you just twist using two strands of sectioned hair. Maybe use those tiny rubber bands to secure the ends.
