Not true!: Although it may not be comfortable to sleep with wet hair, I do not think it is harmful, It certainly will not make you crazy!

No: Sleeping with wet hair would be the last thing on the list of things that make one crazy:) I would put drugs and alcohol above it . Hair may get a little damaged with sleeping while wet but nothing more.
