Flyaway hair during winter is a common problem because positive charges pick up your hair strands. Bad hair days equate to bad mood, and your hair makes it all too obvious by looking like it wants to leave you to play with snow (It's your lucky day, read these14 weird but effective ways to avoid a bad hair day ). A basic tip to get away from flyaway hair during winter is to add moisture. To make sure you get good hair days the whole year round, here are some tips that you’ll definitely find very easy to follow:
  • Tame your flyaway hair with hairspray. You can also spray your comb or hairbrush with a styling product or a hairspray, then tame your hair with it.
  • Expect static to be stronger during the cold months. The air gets dry inside your workplace or homes because of heating systems. To beat the cold and the static that comes with it, then spend $25 to get a humidifier.A humidifier evaporates drain water by ultrasonic vapor mechanisms or cooking some amounts of water. You can buy a humidifier with ultrasonic vapor mechanism if you are fine with producing cold fog in your house. The cooking device, on the other hand, will create steam. With a humidifier, your hair gets air with the right humidity level. Because of increased humidity, a reduction in static is made. If your hair is curly, your curls become stronger if the humidity is higher.
  • Use a gel or hair serum to tame your static hair. Gels and serums based on silicone are proven to tame your unruly hair. You can also use these products to make your hair smoother. Leave-on conditioners also help stylize your hair. Remember that a great way to get away with hair problems is to use the right hairstyling products.
  • Carry a lotion in your bag. You can use your body or hand lotion to tame your flyaway hair. Apply a little amount of lotion or cream on your hair and then run your fingers through the frizzy areas of your hair. If you are going to use lotion, remember to never use too much.
  • Use a dryer sheet and run it across your hair to get rid of flyaway hair. Shopping for hair products in general is easy as long as you know what you are looking for. In this case, look for products with essential oils, vitamin A, vitamin E, panthenol, biotin, jojoba, keratin, wheat germ or coconut oil because these substances tame your hair frizzy hair.
  • You can also try to dampen your hair. Wet your hands slightly and then run your fingers through your hair. You can also put water into a spray bottle and then spray water on your hair, especially on the areas with flyaway strands.
  • You can use static-free brushes. A dryer softener sheet will do the trick. Just rub it over your hair brush before brushing your hair. Your hair will not just become static-free but tangle-free as well.
  • You can also buy a shampoo designed to tame your frizzy hair. Some shampoos take away your hair’s natural oils, consequently preventing static. Jojoba oil can be applied to your hair after using a shampoo that washes away your natural oil. (Guide on how to get rid of frizzy hair)
  • If you have tried all these and you still can’t seem to get rid of flyaway hair, double check your wardrobe. If your clothing has chemical fibers, you are sure to have flyaway hair. Examples of chemical fibers are polyester and viscose. Switch to electrically neutral fabrics like wool and cotton to get rid of flyaway hair
  • Who says you need to shampoo everyday? Shampooing every other day will help you save not just money on toiletries, but will help prevent flyaway hair too. Make sure to give your scalp a good massage on days that you don’t shampoo your hair. Rinse your hair to make sure your scalp is invigorated. You can still do this even when your hair is oily or you just came from the gym.
  • Work on your hair’s cuticle – smooth it out. If your hair has too much flyaway, it means that your hair cuticles are jagged and dry. End your shower with blow-drying (using cool air) or with a cold water rinse to seal your hair’s cuticle. Hairstyling products with labels like “shine” or “illuminate” will help you get rid of flyaway hair. A drop of these products is enough to prevent hair static. Rub a small amount through your hair, but don’t apply on the roots. You can also visit your stylist and ask to get a gloss or glaze treatment. Expect to get rid of flyaway hair for up to eight weeks.
  • Eat the right food, especially those with shea butter, avocado oils, jojoba oils and aloe vera oils to revitalize and hydrate your hair strands. You can buy drinks with these ingredients at your local drugstore as well.
You can forgive flyaway hair if you are going to watch movies in your room (It would be special if you watch the Top ten blockbuster movies of all time) and be a couch potato for a day. Flyaway hair definitely becomes a nightmare for you, especially if you need to go to an important appointment where you need to look good. With these tips, you can prevent your hair from picking up positive charges that cause static. Now, you can say goodbye to hair strands that seem to fly on their own.
