So what exactly is causing hair to misbehave? At the risk of getting too science-y, static hair is caused when there is an imbalance of positive and negative atoms (protons and electrons) in the strands. The right number of the positive and negative atoms means a good hair day, while too many protons means crazy, flyaway hair. Basically, static electricity happens when your hair becomes positively charged — and the drier your hair, the more likely this charge change will happen.
Fortunately, there are steps you can take to tone down static electricity, and even stop it altogether. Try these tricks and get rid of static hair for good this winter.
