How can i get the static out of my hair?

Question

I straighten my hair with a straightener and its always really staticy. How can I get rid of the static

Answer 1

static guard on your brushes/combs and swipe a dryer sheet over your hair before you use hair spray.

Answer 2

Oh my don't do any crazy baby powder tricks! The reason that your hair is staticy is because it is dry. The best thing to do is use a product that is specifically for straightning while your hair is wet. Straighten as normal. If you hair is still staticy I would use a tiny bit of pomade or forming cream, a little goes a long way. Since I don't know what type of hair you have it is a little hard to say. I personally use MOP (modern organic products) C-Straight, you can find it at Ulta or higher end salons, I also use their pomade. I tried Herbal Essence anti frizz stuff, I forget what it is called, it is in little yellow tubes. It does work but I felt it left my hair looking a little greasy, but hey it is cheap.

Answer 3

Try not to brush it or brush it with your fingers. I know mine gets staticy when I do that. Also use a little leave in conditioner or pomade but only run it lightly on top of the static pushing it down (you dont want to get your hair too greasy) If you dont have any put lotion on your hands (like you would if you had dry skin) then afterwards pull your hair back. The dampness of the lotion should put the static down.

Answer 4

Leave in conditioner like Garnier Fructis.

OR go to the laundry department in the grocery store and they have this stuff in what looks like a hairspray can(its blue with an orange cap, its meant for your clothes but it WORKS) and if you spray it on the brush and brush your hair lightly its not staticy, anymore!!

Answer 5

This may sound strange, but what I've heard people do is simply to rub their hair with a DRYER SHEET.
The chemicals in the sheets help to de-ionize the unruly hair so it will lie down. This works in the clothes dryer, why not on the hair (which is enduring the same condition)?
One condition to be cautious using this technique is to pay extra attention to the COLORING of your hair. - It seems to me that with enough repetition, the perfumes in the sheets sould cause adverse effects on the hairshaft (turning your hair green?)

Answer 6

Lightly spray your brush with hairspray, run it through your hair. You can also use a "dryer sheet" fabric softner that you use in your clothes dryers. After your hair is dried, styled take one and run it over your hair and you will be shocked at how it will get rid of the fly aways.

Answer 7

Ok this may sound silly but i had that problem too so what i did was take dryer sheets to both my hair AND my brushes before and after straightening it works for me so maybe it will work for you

Answer 8

On the cheap? You can use a fabric softner sheet, or you can also take a spray bottle mixed with a little fabric softner and water...spray/mist slightly and no more static...this is true...try it.

Answer 9

pantene pro-v conditioner. it's even advertised as a static remover in winter. the heavy conditioners weigh the hair down.

i just rub a dryer sheet in my hair, dryer sheets in your laundry peek the stick away from your clothes.

Answer 10

i think seventeen magazine recommended this one time:
use a little bit of baby powder and sprinkle it on your DRY scalp. Massage it in and add more if needed. then comb your hair. the powder SHOULD keep your hair from getting oily and staticky. :]
