"Hi, I'm Amelia, and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to talk about troubles that you have with your hair. Sometimes, and we've all had this happen, we go somewhere and we get our hair done, and the stylist makes it much bigger than what we are used to. Well the issue with that is once you leave, it's going to deflate, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. But if you're out, and your hair just starts to grow exponentially because of humidity and whatever else, always keep a good brush on hand, or you could even start, just hit it with the blow dryer, and really just kind of brush it. Because that's going to help flatten it out. Now if you've got natural curl, you're not going to want to brush it. If you've got natural curl, you're going to want to keep on hand, keep in your purse some sort of pomade or wax, something light though, creme based. Emulsify it in your hands, and just start scrunching it in. And that's going to help keep those curls bundled together. Because that's the issue, as the humidity attacks the hair shaft the hair starts to swell. As the hair swells it gets bigger. So anything that's going to help keep that hair kind of looped together, and bundled together, is going to help keep it a little bit closer to your head. And you may just have to keep bringing it in, especially if it's a very humid day. With those tips you should be able to fight your big hair. "
