Humidity Hair

[Ohiogal]

I vowed, when I went through a summer of chemo 11 years ago and was as bald as a cue ball, that I'd never complain about having a"bad hair day" again.

But gosh, I'm getting tired of my summer humidity hair. I feel like a 61-year old Little Orphan Annie.

1. The good thing about your hair today ...

is that you are here to share the day with us.

2. I'm having a really bad humidity hair day and I'm on my way

to the barber for a summer fade.

3. Horrible humidity hair day here in PA too. It's in a pony tail

right now and yes it's Little Orphan Annie like plus it's red. Took lots of teasing, even now and I'm nearly 66.

4. No offense

But glad to hear it. I can tell my wife she's in good company!

5. I pull mine back in a huge bun (I have a lot of hair).

I still have a lot of frizzy fly-aways, but it's a bit more manageable. You can always use hairspray when it's wet and pulled back and it will stay like that until you comb it out again.

7. From one curly girl to another

Find a hair stylist with "Deva Cut" training. They specialize in cutting curly hair to enhance your curls instead of fighting them. You'll have fewer bad hair days. It may cost more per haircut, but you won't have to get your hair cut as often.

9. my strategy:

... braids! I keep my hair long, and braid it up on frizzy days.

10. Would it help you to know...

that those of us with poker stick straight hair envy you? Yeah, we do.

13. And our hair just blows around like corn silk in hot dry desert winds.

At least hair that fluffs up in humidity still looks like hair.

11. I Sympathize

When I lived in Michigan, my hair was like RoseAnne Rosanadana's.

Now I live in the Mojave Desert and my hair behaves for the most part. The only trouble now is that the hair around my face is very very fine and it tickles my face mercilessly.

12. I combed conditioner in my wet hair

...didn't rinse it, and left it all day. It looked greasy, but I wasn't going anywhere. The next day, I didn't wash it, just rinsed it, and my curls stayed put. Three days on, it still looks better than if I'd done nothing.
