Humidity...good or evil

Bad for mine. I would rather have dryer hair that lays flay, that I need to moisturize often over unruly frizz which is what humidity does to my hair

I'm glad to see that it's good for some.

My hair is frizzy no matter what the weather, so it isn't good or evil for me.
Just uncomfortable once it gets over 90 degrees and makes the heat index over 100 and like walking through a bowl of soup.

When I was a teen, I always blow dried my hair straight but on the way to school it would frizz due to humidity. OMG misty days were the worst! As a wavy, I just could never have perfectly straight hair in humid conditions. That's actually one of the reasons why I used to perm as a teen. I had no clue. It wasn't straight, and it didn't curl, what the heck kind of hair was it? When I see how waves are "in" these days... gosh... the things I used to do to my hair and now the frizzy, wavy hair is fashionable. It took me until my thirties to learn the difference between frizz and waves and that I actually had texture, it had a name. Many years ago, there'd only be straight hair, frizz, and curls.

I hate humidity, especially fog. My waves/curls turn into a huge frizz-ball. Gah!

I love humidity! It gives my 1a straight hair natural wave. Alas, I live in a desert

Humidity definitely means too frizzy. Dry or medium is best for me.

My hair is really straight, but in humidity it gets little frizzies all over the place

. My hair does NOT like it! If it's too dry though, I get static, even with oil. Picky hair!

Humidity has given me serious curls before, so I can't hate on it completely. But on a no-cone diet, my hair will just frizz and get huge in humid weather.

The only time I've ever had frizz with humidity was when I had perms. In high school I did a wet set ever night and my hair would "flop" if it was humid. Now humidity doesn't bother my hair at all. It might add slightly more wave but not much.
