Why Does Curly Hair get Frizzy in Wet Weather?

The simplest of answers is that the hair does not contain enough internal moisture to counteract the outside environmental moisture. If your hair had enough internal moisture then any outside wetness would just weigh the hair down, not frizz it out. But, when your hair is too dry it takes alot of wetness to make it heavy.
How do you keep our hair from getting frizzy in damp or wet weather? When moisturizing/conditioning our hair, apply it only to midshaft to ends, never the scalp. Then only rinse your hair for 10 seconds. Yes I said 10 seconds. I want your hair to feel SILKY, not squeeky-clean or slick. SILKY!when wet. Remember, your towel, hands and styling tools along with your hair dryer all attract moisture out of your hair. Also, before and while drying your hair apply a serum to your ends. Most serums retain that needed moisture. Do not over dry the ends with a hair dryer. Lastly apply 1-2 more drops of serum.
All my DVD's have the how to's on them.
