TAME FLYAWAYS

We have all had sleepless nights and last moment anxiety over our flyaway hair. These loose bits of small broken hair is a horror that threatens to wash away all our efforts of getting that perfect hairstyle. No matter what we try they just will not go down. Even if we apply hair gel and hair spray to get them the way they get all crunchy and frizzy and form locks loaded with hair gel and irritate us more. We hate it, we fight it, we hide it but, in the end, we surrender, and in our despair, we end up cursing our hair and calling ourselves ill-fated. But what if this was all a load of overthinking? What if we can tame our flyaway hair and prevent it from spoiling our look of the day?


Count on us to help you deal with those flyways, with our expert-recommended tips. Before we get down to knowing how to tame these loose bits of hair strands that wreak havoc on our hairstyles, let us understand how they come into being. Flyaway hair can occur due to various reasons that could have been in our control. Here are some of them:

  • Dry Climate:

It is a contributing factor to flyaway. The hair loses moisture and turns light, hence becoming more susceptible to damage. This leads to unclaimed strands that worry you as flyaways.

  • Static:

The Static charge could be a reason if you get flyaways only during the winter. The charge in your hair due to constant rubbing and movement makes the small strands stand out, ruining your perfect hairstyle.

  • Lack of nutrients:

Without nutrition, your hair is left without much strength to fight the weather, protect it from external factors such as sun rays, wind, dust. Your hair starts to have secluded hair strands flying out of control due to a lack of strength to withstand all of these.

  • Bad Hair Care Regime:

Often or not, we tend to switch between hair care regimes. Some of these turn out to be cathartic, giving our hair the worst nightmare of irreversible damage. The early symptoms of this damage can be seen as flyaway hair.

  • Humidity:

In humid climate, the hair gets negative electrostatically charged. This makes the hair repel each other leading to frizz and flyaways.

Though Instant hacks might be your last-minute fix, our experts recommend the following flyaway hair solutions for a lasting effect. Here are a few ways to prevent and reduce flyaway hair by strengthening your hair from the root:

  • Skip Brush and use Fingers:

Using brushes and combs can create static energy in your hair. This being one of the prime causes of flyaway hair, it’s best you choose to run your fingers instead. This would not only help you get rid off the annoying hair static, but also helps you achieve a no-flyaway look.

  • Cut down on heat styling:

While Heat Styling products can get us our desired look it can also damage our hair. It is an undeniable fact that with the use of heat styling we increase our woes of Flyaways and frizz. If you feel you just can do without a blow dryer or curling irons, use a heat protectant lotion, Pantene Open Hair Miracle is perfectly suited for the cause. Just apply a walnut size amount to your damp hair to create a protective layer around them and style your heart out.


  • Prevent hair breakage:

As we all know Prevention is better than cure. It becomes important for us to treat our hair gently so as to avoid hair breakage. There are various easy changes we can make in our lifestyle that enable us in reducing hair breakage. Using silk pillowcases could be a good option, unlike cotton pillows they don’t suck moisture out of our hair. Reducing chemical treatments can save your hair from a lot of damage. Using cloth elastic bands could help reduce strain on your hair.

  • Avoid using a towel to dry your hair:

Towel stands to be the classic solution to drying the hair, but is it the best way? The fibers of many towels are very harsh on our hair. When we use them to dry our hair we accidentally damage them and create more frizz, leading to more flyaways. There are several ways to go about it. You could use a clean T-shirt to dry your hair. Its gentle fabric will do you no harm and also provide you favourable results.

  • A Regular Hair Care Routine:

If you have frizzy hair It becomes very important for you to have a regular hair care routine. Shampoo regularly if you have very oily and greasy hair, but for others doing it every 2 or 3 days could work very well. And once you shampoo your hair make sure to condition it after that so as to provide it the moisture and nutrients it needs. Conditioning will keep split ends and flyaways at bay. You could choose a shampoo and conditioner from Pantene Advanced Hairfall Control range. The Pro-Vitamin compound in these products provide your hair with the strength you need to fight flyaways.
