Static Frustration
Niki Guin
Senior Stylist
Director of Education
Its been cold outside, if you haven’t noticed. Lots of people have pulled out their favorite sweaters, wool coats and crocheted scarfs. But there’s one thing dry Winter weather brings that no one wants besides frozen pipes and snow-flurry school closings – fly-away static hair.
Why does this happen? Well, dry hair collects positive electrical charges each time you brush it or that you pull that scarf around your neck. Positively charged hairs will repel one another just like the positive sides of two magnets will push each other away. So, the more you brush, the worse the problem can get.
Here are some continuing-care solutions I recommend for you to use:
+ A shampoo and conditioner like Bumble & Bumble’s Alojoba. won’t strip the natural oils from your hair. We liken Alojoba to a smoothie for your hair! It leaves your hair healthy, soft and shiny.
+ Bumble’s Leave In (rinse out) is our lightest conditioner and can be left in even the finest of hair and not weigh it down.
+ A foundation product like Bumble’s Tonic Lotion has a great combination of essential oils like tea tree to help sooth your hair.
+ Finishing products can work well too. Grooming Crème is excellent for everyone. It gives your hair subtle hold with a smooth satin finish.
+ In a pinch, some people use dryer sheets. But this isn’t practical for curled or styled hair. You might also try spraying a little anti-static spray on your comb or brush, then running it through your hair.
We might not be able to help with the weather, but we can certainly help your hair look better.
