Shit hair day

5 replies

PeaceLoveAndCandy · 03/09/2020 20:20

I hate the period between summer and hat wearing weather, because I end up having shit hair every single day. Today was wet and windy where I live. I walk 20 mins to work. By the time I got there my hair was disgusting, all frizzy and nasty. I don't like wearing it dead straight but I can't stand it when it goes all frizzy. I use Olaplex (I have 4, 5, 6) but I don't use them all at once. I have medium length, fine hair, not dead straight but doesn't qualify as wavy either. There's a couple of waves at the front, that's about it.

I wonder if there's a product I could use at work that will tame my hair a bit when this happens? It just looks so unprofessional.

I have hair very similar to this. Had massive frizzy hair for years.

I've learned to wash and dry naturally and night (then style). I've noticed that not drying it over lockdown has been very helpful.

I then sleep on it and then when I travel, tie it up VERY loosely in a very high top bun. Then take it down. The frizz is all underneath and it works a treat

Keratin blow dry.

Persona I am not sure about Keratin because It worries me it might end up making my hair too think. I don't have as much as I used to plus it's fine anyway.
@Joeyandpacey don't you get really hot?
London I might give that a go but I don't hold much hope. I fear my hair will just look a matted knotted frizzy mess.

A bit. But it’s really thin and worth it! Otherwise a hood looks a bit less strange but I try and style it out!
