Why does our hair frizz when

0:09

we go out in humidity

0:12

and rain ? Well

0:14

, our hair has a cuticle

0:16

layer . The cuticle layer looks like little

0:18

fish scales . The goal

0:20

is to have your cuticle , or your fish

0:22

scales , laying really

0:24

, really tight down . That gives you really

0:26

shiny hair , reflective

0:28

hair , and that is the goal of everybody

0:31

. But what happens is when you have

0:33

curly hair , every time

0:35

your hair curls okay

0:38

, every time it bends that cuticle

0:40

opens up just a little bit , kind of like when you

0:42

see a marching band turn

0:44

the corner . Well , the same happens in

0:46

your hair . Every time you have

0:49

a turn in your hair , the

0:51

cuticle is open just a little bit . So

0:53

now you have curly hair and you've got the

0:55

cuticle open a little bit . So what happens

0:58

when you go out in humidity

1:00

is the hydrogen

1:02

molecules in the air , the water

1:04

in the air , seep

1:07

into that cuticle and

1:09

it swells it . And

1:11

that swelling of the

1:13

cuticle of the hair causes

1:16

frizz , I

1:18

know . So what can you do about it

1:20

? Well , the obvious thing to do about

1:22

it is , like me , wear a hat and

1:25

deal with it that way , or put

1:27

product on there . And there are products

1:29

out there that coat

1:32

the hair and they put like

1:34

a protective barrier on the hair

1:36

to help keep the moisture

1:38

or the humidity out . Don't

1:40

worry , I'll link some of my favorite products

1:42

for you . But there are some more permanent

1:44

solutions . They're not permanent , better solutions

1:47

like Brazilian blowout . For one , I

1:49

love my Brazilian blowout . I really

1:51

don't know how I could do my hair without

1:53

it . You may be wondering what is it ? It's

1:55

really a defrizzer . It's not

1:57

a straightener . A Brazilian blowout

1:59

defrizzes the hair by actually

2:02

wrapping each individual strand

2:04

of your hair with an amino acid

2:06

. It kind of is like putting shrink wrap

2:09

over every single individual hair

2:11

. It kind of protects it from the humidity . How

2:13

it's applied is it's heat sealed

2:15

on your hair and it lasts about 12 weeks and

2:18

it is kind of costly . However , if frizz

2:20

is a huge issue , you might consider

2:22

talking to your stylist about it . If you would

2:24

like to see a video about

2:26

Brazilian blowout , how to do it

2:28

, what to expect , all that kind of stuff , just

2:30

let me know . I would love to do that for

2:33

you if that's the case . Like I said , it's

2:35

kind of pricey , but I think it's

2:37

well , well worth it . So now

2:39

we know how frizz happens

2:41

in humidity . How come sometimes

2:44

you have good hair days and sometimes you

2:46

have bad hair days and you didn't

2:48

do anything different . Have you ever

2:50

wondered that ? Well , before we get to that

2:52

, make sure that if you're getting any

2:54

value out of any of my videos , please

2:57

don't hesitate to subscribe to my channel

2:59

or push the thumbs up

3:01

on this video . It really does

3:03

help me bring more videos

3:05

to you and to teach you a little bit more

3:07

about your hair care needs . So I've done

3:09

some research on why is

3:11

it that bad hair days , good

3:13

hair days , terrific hair days , when

3:16

you're not doing anything different ? Well , we already

3:18

know the weather With the

3:20

weather , humidity . If you live in a

3:22

humid climate , you already know you

3:24

need to use some kind of anti-humidity

3:27

resistant kind of product on

3:29

your hair . You have to do that first and foremost

3:32

. Even if you have curly hair , you still

3:34

have to have some kind of product that helps

3:37

with the frizz , and you

3:39

might even consider , kind of like I do

3:41

on humid days or

3:43

not so great dry days

3:45

, wearing your hair in the natural state

3:47

. Wear it curly , ask your stylist

3:49

or get a haircut . That helps

3:52

bring out that natural texture in your hair

3:54

, and it's a good thing . Natural texture

3:56

is really making a comeback . Another thing that you

3:58

might not have considered is your body temperature

4:00

. If your internal body temperature

4:03

is running hot , that's going to make

4:05

your scalp sweat and it might produce

4:07

more oils than what you're used to and

4:09

it could make your hair throughout the

4:11

day go limp . You might want to consider

4:13

carrying a little travel size dry

4:16

shampoo spray . I'll link my

4:18

favorites below . Another

4:20

big tip is especially

4:22

with the body temperature . If

4:25

you're getting ready in the bathroom

4:27

, that's a big no-no . Don't

4:30

style your hair in the same place

4:32

you took your shower , because if you're

4:34

showering , that's going to create a

4:36

humid environment and it's

4:39

going to ruin your hair . You won't even have a good start

4:41

. Or if you're like me and

4:43

you're getting ready at the same time your spouse or your

4:45

significant other is getting ready . You

4:47

know like I'm doing my makeup while my husband's

4:49

in the shower . All that steam is

4:51

creating a bad environment for

4:54

styling your hair . Consider how you part

4:56

your hair . I've noticed with some

4:58

of my hair clients that if they continuously

5:01

part their hair in the same exact spot

5:03

, that it actually creates a flat

5:05

surface in their hairstyle . So

5:07

if you're looking for a little bit more volume , think

5:09

about just changing up your part line

5:12

. That'll help a lot . Then another

5:14

thing that I see and my daughter does this

5:16

a lot showering at night and going

5:18

to bed with your hair wet . Have you ever noticed

5:21

that if you do that , you're never going to wake up with

5:23

perfect hair ? It's how you sleep

5:25

on it , the texture of your pillowcase

5:27

. If you can't get out of this

5:29

routine of showering at night , make

5:31

sure then you dry your hair at least 80%

5:34

dry before you go to bed . Maybe

5:36

consider putting braids in or

5:38

wearing it up in a little top knot Loosely

5:41

though , okay . And then

5:43

also consider your style , the styling

5:45

of your hair . If you're continuously styling

5:47

your hair the same way every single

5:49

day , it's going to start either

5:51

getting flat if you use a flat iron every

5:53

day , it'll actually seal your cuticle

5:56

down and it'll actually get flatter

5:58

and flatter . So think about

6:00

changing up your hairstyle

6:03

. Like I said , changing the part , changing

6:06

how you style it . So if you are always

6:08

flat , ironing it , maybe you curl it

6:10

, maybe you bring out some natural texture , maybe

6:13

you , instead of always putting it in a ponytail

6:15

, you wear it down . We went over

6:17

about four or five different ways that

6:20

the environment or how we're

6:22

styling our hair can affect our hair

6:24

and predict bad hair

6:26

days , mostly it's the weather . If you're

6:28

like me and you look outside and

6:30

it's a rainy day , you know you're

6:33

not going to blow it out your hair smooth with a round

6:35

brush . You're going to take it , bring

6:37

out the natural wave or you're going to wear

6:40

a hat . Right , join us next time

6:42

when we go over 10

6:44

ways to turn around a

6:46

bad hair day . I think you're going to love

6:48

it . So until next time , stay

6:51

awesome and , hopefully , frizz free

6:53

.
