frizzy hair

My hair is permed but no matter how straight it gets, when I sweat or it rains, my hair frizzes up and become like it has no perm in it. What is the problem?

Hi there,

Sometimes it's really hard to say why your hair keeps frizzing up in the rain or when you sweat. I will tell you that when I was young, I had the same issue. I think it was a problem with the type of relaxer as well as the application. Therefore, I'd suggest looking into a couple of things.

Are you having your hair relaxed by a professional?

How are they applying the relaxer?

How well does your hair look when it is first done? If it does not look that great initially, then it is more likely to frizz.

What is your hair type? Do you have a texture that is frizzy and doesn't straighten well? You might want to consider growing out your relaxer and instead flat ironing for straightness instead.

Another thing you can try is weighing your hair down a bit. Use a moisturizer like Carol's Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey or Aveda Anti-Humectant on your hair...very little. This should create a barrier between your hair and the weather keep frizz to a minimum.

I hope a few of these suggestions help.
