These can be disasters, or success stories. Natural or Relaxed.
Just show us what happens when humidity Strikes.
I live in NJ. The Humidity can be beastly at times! I know you've got a story or an example too. Lets show it. (I LOVE Pics)
Yesterday I left with one style. (A nicely formed braidout) Returned at the end of the day with
Sideshow Bob Frozilla hair.:afropick:
Timeline shown below.
These are the braids pre braid out.

This is the same braidout after being slapped:hardslap: by 7 hours of NJ Humidity.

Ahhhh hair is so much FUN! :spinning: :spinning:
 
That is too funy, but I love the pictures!!! :lachen: Come to TX it's worse!..lol:grin:
you ain't lying. :yep:The last time I was at a convention in TX I wanted to scream.:wallbash: I had apl relaxed hair. I would curl it up all nice, by the time I walked from the hotel to my car My hair would be flat, no curl not even a wave.:sad: It didn't matter what I used on it! TX got some serious humidity:blush:
 
Got to love humidity. I don't have any pictures, but I do love your before and after. lol.
 
i see ya Mook! :lol:

i will go rooting through my photos of last year, before i started using Sabino MB when i flat iron. i have some that i never posted, i think i saved them though...

***ETA - okay, remember my vid from May 2008 when i got my layers reshaped? my stylist used Redken products i think. no Sabino in my life yet. so here are 2 pics i took right when i got home:

Yes Ma'am!! Funny!

I remember those days! Fantasia IC hair polisher gel fixed that right up for me!
 
Lol, this thread made me laugh because I'm sitting here now with what feels like a foot of hair sticking out of each side of my head, lol. I'm getting ready to do a wash n' go....there's no point to me doing a twist n' curl in this humidity.
 
Mook, I am from where you live. It wasn't until I turned 18 and moved away to go to college that I realized that my hair didn't really need to have that "halo" I had been wearing all those years... lol!
 
Here is Georgia weather for ya, I did a lovely Curlformer set.
I didn't take a picture immediately after I took them out but at least I have the result of 1 hour post after going to Wal Mart.

Thanks for a great thread Mook!!
 
MIssNorway, I think your "after" picture is beautiful! But I like big hair.

My hair poofed up quite badly a few weeks ago at my granddaughter's birthday party. The LAST thing on my mind was to take a damn picture LOL

Thanks for a great thread Mook!!

Your after is gorgeous but I like Afros and big hair.
 
Ha ha great stories. Pokahontas, I'd love to see a before & after humidity pic of your gorgeous locs.

Lady Libra. That's a great example, I know you turned that into a bangin' Puff.
TCatt. I love it! that's cute even with the humidity.
And I love your siggy pic. (cute)

This is a good thread. But it shows my exact reasons for not wanting to straighten my hair this summer. Im too afraid. This humidity in Georgia is a beast! I would be sooo upset after putting in all that work on MY head and it POOFS up. :wallbash:
 
LOL! Great pics!

I wish I had seen this thread sooner, because then I could have taken some before and after pictures today! :lachen:

I had done a very nice braid-out this morning ,and was looking so cute and chic with my braidout and a scarf head-band around my head. By noon, my little "braid-out" was looking more like an lion's mane! And not a well-kept one either! :lol:

I had to pin my hair up because since I have fine hair, the ends looked really fly-away and frizzy. :(

But this thread is a good one because I don't feel so bad! I thought humidity only reared it's ugly head on ME personally. I'm RELAXED and I STILL get jacked up when the humidity is high. :nono:

At least now I know that we're not "perfect" and that even though our hair may look on point in our fotki albums, this thread is showing the whole TRUTH! :lol:

I have some pictures I could share...boy do I have some pictures! lol!
 
I went to Thanksgiving dinner looking like this:

The next morning I got up for after Thanksgiving sales. While I was out, I saw some little teenyboppers in the store laughing and pointing at me. I thought they were just hatin' but when I got home and looked in the mirror, I knew why:blush:--- I had a big blow-out!

I was really excited about finally using Sabino but my darn coupon won't work:nono:...
 
great thread mook!! I never take "after humidity" hair pics...but next time something like that happens I will post one...lol. Ahhh humidity...
 
:love: i think both are gorgeous!!
my coupon never worked either. :ohwell:

Thanks, I just LOVE you and your hair. It's weird cuz I lurked for a long time and I feel like I know some people...You're one of my fantasy friends:look:. I mean that in a good, clean, family-fun way!


Yeah, my stupid coupon worked one day--even with the lhcf discount no less--and I left the window up 'cuz my indecisive self couldn't decide how many bottles I wanted. Well, my stinkturd hubby came home and closed my window and I forgot about it until the next day and now nothing works!:wallbash:
Annoying.
