If you often find yourself with your hair in the air, but you don’t want to look like someone who stuck their fingers in an electrical socket, follow these small and simple tricks to say goodbye to electrified hair.
Positive and negative ions are the basis of this annoying problem. Both are found in our hair, but if there are more negative ions than positive ones, the hair will be more likely to become electrified. Volumizing shampoos are saturated with negative ions, while basic shampoos are neutralizing from the point of view of electrical charges.
There are many factors that influence this. First of all, the cleansing treatments we use. If you wash your hair with poor quality and too generic shampoos, you run the risk of having hair that floats in the air as if you had been hit by electricity. It is better to prefer a good shampoo with a neutral pH.
When you put on a sweater, things get out of hand and your hair flies up to the ceiling? Pay close attention to the fabrics of the clothing you choose, because synthetic fabrics encourage static electricity. Avoid them a priori, preferring natural fabrics such as wool and 100% cotton.
Another enemy number 1 of electrified hair is the exasperated and prolonged use of the brush. An energetic rubbing is one of the main causes of static electricity that is created between the hair, therefore the more you brush it, the more the hair fibers will tend to rise towards the sky. It is better to choose brushes with coatings and bristles made of natural materials.
If you can’t do without a hair dryer or straightener to complete your styling, rely on appliances with the latest and most innovative ion technology. This advanced system allows you to restore the ion charge of your hair and permanently eliminate static electricity and the associated frizz.
Finally, the last and very useful trick is to complete the drying of your hair with a jet of cold air. The aim is to fix the styling and make your hair fall. If any hair still rebels, spray a cloud of hairspray or tame it with a drop of argan oil and/or liquid crystals to force it to fall back into line.
