I have waist length hair. If I don't blow dry it, it becomes wavy and frizzy. I have to blow dry it straight every single day. Is there any products out there that can help me get the straight hair that I want? I live in Oklahoma and the humidity here is awful. I can't find anything to withstand the humid air here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Sara,Why don't you try to just play up your beautiful waves? I DO understand your plight, as I have loose naturally curly hair--- BUT, it is much more easier to work WITH your texture instead of AGAINST it-- especially where humidity is concerned. Beleive me, there is NO straightening balm out there that will stand up to high humidity-- I live in Southern New Jersey, close to the shore and if this place isn't a test of humidity, I don't know what is :) I suggest you try a nice conditioning texture creme, like ARTec Texture Creme and scrunch up your waves. Also, grab yourself an issue of Victoria Secret catalog and take a look at Laeticia Casta's hair-- long and wavy-- it is beautiful and sexy-- hope this helps!Sherry~> I have waist length hair.

Once I know all the description of your hair, I will try to help. I know about the Okla humitity, I live there too! william

THE ONLY THING I HAVE FOUND THAT WORKS IS RUSK'S RADICAL ANTI CURL, IT'S A SALON SERVICE THAT ISN'T AS HARSH AS REGULAR CHEMICAL STRAIGHTENING. I HAVE REEEAALLY CURLY, FRIZZY HAIR (BAD,BAD HAIR!) AND THIS STUFF LEAVES IT SOFT, SHINY AND STRAIGHT. IF YOURS ISN'T THAT CURLY, YOU MIGHT NOT EVEN HAVE TO BLOW DRY IT OUT ANYMORE.STEPHANIE
