Glycerin and Air Conditioning ?

[bimtheduck]

I gave up by the time I got to the umpteenth page of the Juice challenge thread so maybe you all can help me out.
I know glycerin can be beneficial in the summer because of the increased humidity in the air but would it have the same effect in an air conditioned office building? I have some HS 14in1 that I use on the weekends but I'm afraid to use it during the week for fear that the air in my office is too dry. Am I being paranoid?
Can anyone offer up any insight? Thank you in advance!

I don't know if you live in a particular arid area, if so then maybe, however I think that this would be ok. I read a on a site a while back that as long as the humdity is present (they had some magic number and I got all up in arms checking my area for humidity levels year round) you should be fine. As far as I could tell from the humidity maps if you live the south you will be a ok.

If you are really worried you could apply is at night before bedtime and (if you are really parnoid) get a small cool air humidifer. I understand your concerns. I bought a warm and no cool air humidifer for my bedroom saying to myself it will help with the heating/cooling but I knew that iw was really for my hair.

i use juice year round and i live in az where there is like zero humidity expecpt for 2-3months out of the whole yr. i have no issues. so i dont pay no never mind to the "rules"

if you try it and you like it, stay with it

I live in Houston which is very humid but its not very humid in my office. My office is overly air conditioned so much so that I have to wear a sweater, even in the summer. I guess my real question is does the A/C effect the level of humidity in the air so that the glycerin will pull moisture from my hair instead of the air?

air conditioning removes approx. 50% of the humidity out of the air during the summer months.

Thank you ladies, I think I'm going to try it this morning at work and see how my hair does. One day can't hurt. Famous last words!
