Hair Treatments for Flyaway Hair
Eliminating flyaway hair can be the difference between having a good hair day and a bad hair day. Whether you have long or short hair, static electricity can affect it and make it stand up straight. Dry hair that lacks moisture is especially prone to flyaways. Combing through your hair or covering it with a wool hat only worsens the condition. There are various treatments you can incorporate into your hair care routine that can help eliminate flyaways. Does this Spark an idea?

1
Moisturizing shampoo and conditioner add moisture to the hair shaft and keeps it from drying. Use a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week to help tame flyaways and to eliminate electrostatic charges.

2
Use an ionic ceramic hairdryer to dry your hair. Set the hair dryer to a cool setting; avoid using high heat. Ionic ceramic hairdryers remove static charges without stripping moisture from your hair.

3
Style your hair with a brush or comb made from natural fibers, because these don't cause static electricity. Use wood, metal or rubber hair styling tools. Avoid plastic combs and brushes because these can trigger and worsen flyaways.

4
Place a dryer sheet on the top of your head and run it down your flyaway strands. Dryer sheets flatten and tame static hair. As an alternative, spray hairspray on a brush and run it over your flyaway hair.

5
Rub body lotion in your hands. Run your moist hand over and through your hair. The moisture from the lotion weighs down the static hairs. Moisten your hands with water, as an alternative.
