    Instructions

    Things You'll Need

    • Deep Conditioner
    • Hairspray
    • anti-fabric spray
    • leave-in conditioner
    • fabric softener sheet
      • 1

        Deep-condition your hair regularly. (See Related eHow "How to Deep-Condition Hair".) Properly moisturized hair is less likely to be affected by static.

        Use a "leave-in" conditioner on your hair after you wash it, or apply conditioning hair gel. These products help to weigh the hair down.

      • 3

        Spray your hairbrush or comb with an anti-static spray before you run it through your hair.

      • 4

        Keep a fabric softener sheet handy and run it over your hair when it starts to get out of control. Carry it in your purse so you can use it several times during the day if necessary.

      • 5

        Avoid hair products that include ingredients that will dry out your hair, such as alcohol or harsh chemicals such as sodium lauryl sulfates.

    Tips & Warnings

    • Spraying an anti-static product into hats and hoods will reduce with flyaway hair.

    • Using a wooden comb or brush helps reduce static electricity.
