Rainy Day Hair Tips


With all the amazing weather we've been having in New Jersey, I'm sure we are in for some rainy weather soon. Below are a few tips from Butterfly Studio Salon owner, Kattia Solano, on how to style your hair during humid rainy days and how to keep your hair looking glamorous even under a hood or hat!

1. For an easy to manage rainy day 'do, use a light-weight styling cream like the Kerastase Paris Oleo Curl Crème to smooth and define your hair. After towel drying, work a small amount through your hair and diffuse with low speed and high heat to keep your locks safe from rainy day frizz.

2. If you have straight or fine hair and are worried about static as a result of wearing a hat in the rain, simply create a side ponytail or a neat braid to wear under your rain hat. With the help of an anti-frizz serum, such as the Kerastase OLEO-RELAX Serum, even under a hat, this style will maintain its form and reduce static. Once you arrive at your destination, you can let down your hair and shake out those locks or keep it secured to the side.

3. If the humidity is unbearable and all you want to do is throw your hair up into a bun and keep it out of your face, try turning it into a chic messy bun! Instead of securing loose pieces with plain old bobby pins, opt for a more stylish set of clips and even an eye-popping headband.

AHS Tip: When the weather is acting up, it's so much easy to embrace your natural texture!
