    Default Going out tonight, humidity, please help!

    It has been raining alllll day and it has finally cleared up! However, it is soooo humid outside and we are going to see a band play - outdoors. I have a halo of frizz all around the top of my head. I was going to put my hair in a braid, but the top of my head is soooo fuzzy. All I have on hand in some coconut oil, aragon oil, and garnier leave in conditioner. What can I do??

    I would wet the top of the head a bit (not too little, not too much), put your best frizz fighting oil in it a bit, brush it 'tight' and braid it right away, moist (if you brush at all).
    That works for me usually.

    I keep waking up with a fro because of the intense humidity. I mean my hair is shrinking up to eye length!

    I agree with tightening it. That's about all you can do. I even add a cloth headband in a dark color to keep it at bay.
    These pics were about 10 years ago... Trying again from similar to that short pic.

    Its terrible isn't it?? It has been raining on and off for the past week and I think its one of the worst hair weeks I've had in a while - including the 95 degree + heat and humidity we had this summer!
