Bad Hair Day?

With all the heat and humidity, I am really having a bad hair day. What do you do when you have a bad hair day? I will be washing my hair later on and putting it up in a twist. That always makes it much cooler.

I stay inside most of the week and month. So I don't worry all that often about them, but I do try to tame them by applying just a small amount of hairspray and pulling it back.

I have more problems with mine when it gets really hot and humid. I will just be glad when the weather cools off somewhat.

I'm with you on that one. It's been horrible here to, but today it doesn't seem as bad, but still hot enough outside, that it's keeping me indoors.

I have short hair and just wash and go. The only bad hair day happens when I try to do something fancy with it, curls or what not...what a big mistake. Always leave it to the professionals...but then that is not always a good idea either. I've had plenty of bad hair days walking out of a salon too. Short and straight thats the ticket for me...for now any way.

I have thought of getting mine cut, vippean, but my family is against it. I will come to a decision on my own sooner or later.

I tend to wear my hair tied into a high pony tail in the hot weather, it keeps it out of my face and off my back. I do have to wash my hair every couple of days though, and use lots of conditioner.

Ugh I have lots of bad hair days and when I do, it goes up in a bun and stays there until I feel like doing something about it. Now that its been so hot I am washing it more often than usual and finding that i am spending more time on fixing it up afterwards. SOmetimes i wished i had short hair, ... but then again LOL

I have almost to the waist length hair and no way do I wear it loose during the summer...yuk..would feel like a coat on me...LOL...I always pull it back and braid it...I wear it like that until it gets a lot cooler--that's at least one solution to keep my hair off of me in the summer and avoid bad hair days as well

well i have been a professional hair dresser for over 15 years now,and i get so many people coming to me with this problem.i always tell them in this kind of weather always have a hair cut that falls right into place,and thats simple to handel,if you have to spend over 35 minutes on your hair,its not suitable for you.when you get a good haircut that falls into place even on windy days,and a good even cut will always control the frizzies too.also if you mix a gel and a silicone shiner to your hair,and then use a hair spray on top this will give your hair build up,and a sticky feeling.and too much product will weigh your hair down in that hot stick humid weather.only use a size of a dime,if you have alot more hair and its thicker,then use size of a quarter and spread it thru your hair.another thing is always start with freshly washed hair,bend at the waist and begin drying hair as you finger dry it,when most of the moisture is removed then add your products,and lift your hair with a vent brush or a wide tooth comb to create more volume.avoid brushing your hair dry if you have curly hair,this will pull out the curls and make more frizz.my hair is very curly and past the middle of my back,so i just put a light leave in conditioner on everyday,and pull it back into whatever hairstyle i come up with.i just let it go with the flow.

Have you ever tried a leave in conditioner? Infusium has a leave in that helps fight the frizzies.I use it and does help. I also wear my hair up during the hazy, not and humid days.
