Heat and Humidity Gel

Talk about a bad hair-day! Humidity is the worst for frizz and I’m dreading the weather I’m going to face in Marrakesh (leaving today!), but I’ll be equipped with Ouidad Climate Control ($22, 8 oz), which has just replaced Bumble & Bumble Defrizz ($23, 4 oz), as my go-to defrizzer. Defrizz products are always a tough thing because most are heavy gels meant for thick, curly hair. I have relatively straight and thin hair so most defrizz products I’ve tried totally weigh-down my hair (even Bumble & Bumble is on the heavy side for me). Ouidad’s Climate Control, while still being fairly heavy, works for my hair (just make sure to apply no more than a little drop if your hair is on the thin side). I’ve been putting it on as a preventative measure when the weather forecast says rain or when I know it’s going to be gross and sticky weather out and it’s prevented those nest-like frizzies that would otherwise build-up on my hair-part. But, since it’s meant for curly hair, I can’t stress enough not to put too much if you don’t have thick hair or else you will end up a flat, gooey mess — and that’s worse than any amount of frizz! Also I’ve found that it’s best to apply Climate Control when my hair is damp and then locking in the magic by blow-drying:)
