Ideas to Remove Static Electricity from Hair
Static occurs when hair builds up an electrical charge due to friction, heated hair tools, synthetic fabrics, or dry air. This charge causes the hair strands to repel each other, leading to hair standing on end or separating in awkward ways.
• Wash your hair with cold water after conditioning to seal the hair cuticles and avoid static.
• It would be best to wrap your hair in silk before going to sleep. This can prevent friction and static buildup overnight.
• Apply the moisturizing spray a couple of times a day to your hair which aids in keeping it free from static.
• Spray coconut milk into the hair in a light mist to help retain the hair’s hydration and avoid static buildup.
• Incorporate some omega-3 and vitamin-rich foods into your diet to support hydration and less static hair. Keeping the body well watered also keeps hair silky and unlikely to collect static electricity.
• Rub a tiny amount of hand cream on your palm. Then, apply it to your hair and massage lightly to combat static.
• Excessive styling weakens hair strands and causes static electricity. Don’t use heat appliances like flat irons or curling irons to brush or comb your hair. It will dry it out and leave it prone to static.
