How Orlando Humidity Affects Your Hair — and What to Do About It

Orlando sunshine is wonderful, but the combination of heat and humidity can make smooth, polished hair harder to maintain. A simple routine can help keep your hair looking its best between salon visits.

Start with gentle cleansing

Choose a cleansing routine appropriate for your hair and scalp instead of over-washing simply because the weather feels humid. Follow with conditioner through the mid-lengths and ends.

Keep hydration balanced

Hair that feels dry can become harder to manage. Use lightweight conditioning products and avoid piling on more product than your hair needs.

Style with the weather in mind

For an Orlando day outdoors, choose styles that can tolerate movement and moisture. Braids, polished ponytails, buns and naturally textured styles can all work beautifully.

Finish lightly

A small amount of leave-in or finishing product can help smooth flyaways without making hair feel heavy.
