Why this worksHumidity can cause hair to swell and frizz due to the moisture in the air. By choosing the right hairstyles, you can minimise exposure to humidity and keep your locks looking sleek. Styles that pull hair away from the face not only combat frizz but also keep you feeling fresh on hot days.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Sleek Low Bun Gather your hair at the nape of your neck and secure it in a low bun. Use a smoothing serum to tame any flyaways for a polished finish.
  2. Braided Crown Braid two sections of hair from the front and pin them back to form a crown. This keeps hair off your face and adds a romantic touch.
  3. Messy Top Knot Pull your hair into a high ponytail, twist it around to form a bun, and secure with a hair tie. Leave some pieces out for a relaxed, stylish look.
  4. Half-Up Twist Take the top half of your hair, twist it back, and secure with a clip or hair tie. This style keeps hair manageable while showing off your length.
  5. Sleek Ponytail Pull your hair back into a tight ponytail, using a bit of gel for a sleek finish. This is a classic look that withstands humidity beautifully.

Where people go wrong

Many people underestimate the power of hair products; skipping them can lead to frizz. Also, using heavy accessories can weigh hair down, making it more prone to humidity. Lastly, not securing hairstyles properly can lead to slippage and messiness.

The pro moveTry using a lightweight anti-frizz serum before styling for added protection against humidity.
