I’m totally in favour of a new weather/hair category that sums up what’s going to happen to your hair in that miserable rain/fog hybrid, drizzle. It’s kind of a UK thing because we do all rain variants so well but my goodness it can send your hair into suicide watch. I’m calling it Frizzle. As in, “It’s mostly cloudy with some light Frizzle in the afternoon”. Frizzle, thanks to the fine particles of damp, isn’t quite worth an umbrella but it seeps into your hair within seconds and lifts every single cuticle on every single strand so that in the space of a minute you can go from sleek to freak.
We have the same thing in St. Petersburg, Russia (I live here)! So I understand you very well! This is like a nightmare when you spend a lot of time styling hair and then for five seconds your hair become a wisp)))
Oh no! I moved to Oz from the UK earlier this year and if there’s one thing I don’t miss it’s my hair being ruined before I even reached the train station in the morning! A good excuse to try out some new hair products though
This happened to me on a night out at the weekend-by the time I got to the bar where I was meeting friends I was wondering why I bothered! Good thing I took some emergency serum in my clutch! I thought it might happen and it still didn’t look perfect but a lot better than it did!x
I remember when I was in London and I never had worst hair in my life. I live in Romania, pretty poor country compared to the UK, but there is no humidity here at least
Makes me wish for a full hazmat suit for my walk to work most days…

I don’t enjoy Frizzle days either! We do get quite a few of those in Montréal. I still take an umbrella with me, hoping it will make a difference.
Do hate the weather ruining my hair! My work also ruins my hair as I work in a lab and spend a fair amount of time with boiling water and cleaning up and steaming my face and hair. It has proved an exciting challenge finding both makeup and haircare that will stop me looking plain crazy! I find the L’Oreal techniart liss control smooth cream works really well for me. x
wow, I absolutely know what you mean
