the woolens. While winter brings with it the white blanket of snow, it also
creates the problem of dryness, of skin as well as scalp. Dry air, artificial
heat and wool hats, almost everything associated with winter results in dry
hair, which in turn end up bearing static electricity. Apart from dryness,
excessive use of hair products is the reason for your hair sticking straight up.
If your hair is full of static electricity for either of the two reasons, then
the following tips will come handy. Go through them and know how to get static
free hair.
Tips For Getting Rid Of Static Electricity In Your Hair
* One of the best and the easiest way of getting rid of static in your hair is
by lightly running a dryer sheet over your head. Divide your hair into sections
and taking one of the sections, run the sheet from the scalp to the bottom of
the strand. After stroking a section this way several times, move on to another
sections and like this, cover all the hair.
* One of the basic reasons of static hair is dryness. In such a case, it is
advisable for you to use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner, on a regular
basis, at least in the winter months.
* The dryness in hair can also be cured by giving it an intensive conditioner
treatment once a week or at least once in two weeks. Warm your hair oil slightly
and apply it throughout your hair, including scalp. Take hot water and dip a
towel in it. Rinse out the water and wrap your hair in the warm towel. Leave for
30 minutes and then, shampoo your hair.
* A quick-fix solution for your dry, static-ky hair will comprise of your
moisturizing lotion. Put some lotion on the hands and rub them together, till it
is nearly dry. Now, run your fingers through your hair, right from the scalp to
the ends. This will keep your hair from flying away with static.
* If your hair is not dry, rather has too much of styling products in it, then
the treatment for static will differ slightly. In this case, you need to get
hold of a clarifying shampoo. It use will help you get rid of too much product
in your hair and thus, avoid static.
Some Tips
* For combing your hair, always make use of wood or natural bristle brushes and
avoid synthetic fibers. This is because wood and natural fibers don't hold a
charge as easily as synthetics.
* After you have styled your hair, use a finishing balm/lotion or spray gel to
hold hair in place. Avoid the use of hairspray altogether, since it dries out
hair and is likely to lead to more static in your hair. |
