Style Curly Hair in Humid Weather

Summer time is here, and so is the humidity. Humid weather can make styling your hair a nightmare, especially if you have wavy hair that is prone to frizz. Follow these simple steps to get rid of frizzy hair in hot weather.

Step 1---Instead of trying to blow dry your hair straight when the humidity is at its worst in the summertime, stick to scrunching your hair. Try washing your hair with a shampoo and conditioner that combats frizz, like Redken Fresh Curls shampoo, and conditioner. When you get out of the shower apply a leave-in conditioner like Africa's Best Organics Olive Oil Leave In Conditioner.

Step 2--- Next you will want to comb your hair with a wide toothed comb. After you got out all of the tangles, pump a generous amount of light weight gel into your hands. A good all natural brand to look for is Kiss My Face Natural Styling Gel Upper Management, available on drugstore.com. For a cheaper option go for Herbal Essence Totally Twisted Curl Scrunching Gel.

Step 3 ---After Apply your hair gel generously all over your hair, flip your hair over and apply moose from the roots to the tips of your hair. A good Mousse that is not too expensive is Aussie Catch the Wave Mousse and Leave in Conditioner in one. This will help save you money on your leave in conditioner, and costs under $4.

Step 4 ---The last step is to use your hands to scrunch your hair up to the roots and then release it back down. Repeat this action several times until you are happy with your curls!
