Does anyone know how to get static electricity out when drying hair?

Answer 1

Amy said use a dryer sheet... as weird as it sounds, my sister and I both do that in the winter when our hair gets really dry... We try with conditioner, loads of it, but the static tends to attack anyway... While you're blowdrying your hair, rub a dryer sheet over it. Or something else I've tried may seem even weirder, but I take a very small amount (2 or 3 ounces of Downy (or any other laundry softener (which also helps with static), dilute with about the same amount of water, and use it just like a conditioner.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

The very best thing is to use conditioner. If you use conditioner after shampooing your hair then when you blow dry you won't get static. If you are doing this already, you may want to consider using styling gel. Just a very small amount goes a long way in keeping the static gone. Another way that works well but will sound totally funny and that is rubbing a dryer sheet over your hair before drying it and during if necessary. Good luck!! :-)

The dryer sheet trick really does work. I always carry one with me in my purse to tame frizzies on the go. (I live in humid south Louisiana, so my hair poofs the minute I walk out the door!)

Another option is to try an ion hair dryer. I don't know if they sell them at Wal-Mart or Target, but I know for sure that I saw one at Brookstone a few weeks ago. These hair dryers send out a flow of electrons as they blow your hair dry with regular heated air, thereby giving your electron-seeking static-filled hair electrons to complete their shells, and thus neutralizing the static electric charge between hair strands and taming your Einstein-looking locks.

This goes to sound bizarre, however it works. Use soar dryer sheets and run them over your hair, it utterly takes the static out. It could be a little drying despite the fact that, so upload a few moisturizer for your hair afterwards.

Answer 5

Just a TINY amount of gel or a styling Mouuse (sp?) rubbed in while your hair is wet might do the trick; you'll never know it's there & it keeps enough moisture in the hair to keep the frizzes at bay; that or try conditioning while in the shower; perhaps a leave-in conditioner!

Answer 6

Be sure to use conditioner, and get an ion hairdryer. There are a lot of hairdryers that have the ion feature.

Answer 7

Use a dryer sheet.
