i dont know what is, but lately my hair seems to be on the staticky side. maybe its the whether. anyway my hair seems limp and lifeless. then again it could be stress. its getting close to the end of the semester and im busy studying for finals and preparing for presentations. i guess ill just have to wait and see.

does anyone have any suggestions on how i can control this static?

Hi Brunette85,  Have you tried just a touch of oil on the ends.  Works wonders for me.  I put a drop or two on my hand, rub hands together, then work thru ends only.  Because of the thickness of my hair, I section it into small sections to start with.  So beware, a little oil goes a long way depending on your hair type.  I am currently using grapeseed oil.  It seems lighter that evoo.

It is getting much colder where I live too.  Was 37 degrees Sunday, and 48 degrees today, but it dropped back to 39 between 4 - 5pm this afternoon.

Good luck

Static comes with dry air and winter usually means dry air.  

A couple of ways to control static:

• Use a leave in conditioner
  
• Oil your hair or oil it more often
  
• Use a small amount of aloe vera to control fly-away hair
  
• A used dryer sheet will also help to control static - just wipe the sheet down the hair
  

Good luck with your hair and your studies.
