Annoying Static in Your Hair? 6 Tips to Banish Flyaways in Autumn and Winter

Every year in winter, when it is cold and dry, the biggest problem for long-haired women is the troublesome hair static. The annoying static electricity causes embarrassing hair to stick to your face and clothes and makes your hair look frizzy. Your well-styled hair could be ruined as you take off the coat! Read these 6 tips to get rid of flyaways and get slick well-behaved hair in this chilly season.


1.Blow-dry hair to 70% to 80% dry

Static electricity in the hair is due to dry and cold air, which reduces the humidity of the hair. When hair loses its moisture, dry hair is susceptible to static electricity caused by friction. Therefore, the best way to prevent static is to keep your hair moderately hydrated and avoid drying it out too much. Blow-dry your hair in the direction of the scales until it is 70% to 80% dry to keep it smooth and moisturised. You can also use light hair oil after blow-drying.


2.Use an anti-static comb 

Combing your hair well also helps to combat static. Plastic, metal and nylon are not your friends when it comes to flyaway hair. These combs are prone to static electricity, which can result in messier and more annoying hair. Wide-tooth combs made from natural materials such as wood and horn are recommended. You can also start by brushing out the tips of the hair, then the middle and slowly towards the roots to reduce excessive friction.


3.Kick the hair-pulling habit

In addition to air, dry hands are also a major cause of electric charge. Inevitably, using different electrical appliances can leave static in the body, which can be transferred to the hair by pulling it out, resulting in a fluffy and dishevelled look. It is necessary to reduce the habit of touching the hair with both hands to avoid static from the hair.


4.Apply hair oils

Hair needs to be kept moist to dissipate static electricity, so hair oil is a good option. Choose from several handy and effective no-rinse hair oils, which can be applied in much the same way. Rub a drop into the palm of your hand and apply to the tips of your hair before slowly working your way to the middle and roots of your hair, being careful not to rub into the scalp. If you still have some oil on your hands after applying, pat your hair to allow it to absorb the oil.


5.Carefully opt for your clothes and hairdressing tools

Clothes are a factor of static, so pick cotton or natural silk clothing and home furnishings made from natural materials. Meanwhile, reduce metal accessories on clothing and avoid contact with hair when you have touched these items. You should also use ceramic rods instead of metal curlers as they increase friction with the hair.


6.Intensive hair care

If hair oil is not enough, opt for a hair mask. It is suitable for use in autumn and winter as it contains more nutrients and nourishing ingredients to deeply condition the hair. You can also take a bottle of hair lotion (hair moisturising spray) with you. Spray a little whenever you feel the hair is too dry, swiftly moisturising it and banishing the static.

Hair Forest’s Hair Power Treatment The ultimate nutritional approach to hair growth

Most girls often go to the hair salon to have their hair baked to get rid of frizzy hair and static, but baking is not the ideal way to improve your hair!
