Want to know how to get rid of static hair quickly? Read our guide for steps and tips on how to fight the frizz.

We've all had a bad hair day before (probably more than one!), and one of the most frustrating hair problems is static.

It seems like no matter what you do, your hair just won't stay in place and keeps sticking to your face and clothes. But fear not. Our RiRi experts know exactly how to get rid of static hair.

Whether you want your hair to be healthier, to stop your carefully styled hair from coming undone immediately, or you want your hair to be as silky smooth as your RiRi hair extensions , we've got the tips and tricks you need to vibe with your hair again.

If you find yourself dealing with staticky hair, it can be incredibly frustrating, especially if you're trying to get ready for work, school, or fun! Thankfully, there are a few things you can do to banish the flyaways as a quick fix or more permanently .  

Our top tips on how to get rid of static hair naturally are:

The simplest and quickest way to fix static hair in the moment is to run a wet brush through your locks.

Simply run your hairbrush under the tap, shake off the excess, and run it through your hair. This will restore the positive and negative charge of your hair and stop the strands from repelling each other.

Another great quick fix our experts recommend is to rub a dryer sheet over your hair.

Dryer sheets are well-known for absorbing static electricity caused by clothes rubbing together as they spin around in your dryer, so it makes sense that they're also great for absorbing the static electricity from your dry hair.

This is an ideal fix if your hair decides to become positively charged just as you're about to head out the door!

Adding moisturising hair products to your daily routine is a great way to keep your hair free from static flyaways.

Using a leave-in conditioner when you style your hair or after shampooing adds the much-needed moisture back into your hair to prevent static electricity from building up.

Our argan oil treatment from our  full care set  is a great option if you prefer more natural products, but almost any leave-in conditioner treatment will work. Just make sure it's suitable for hair extensions.

Remember to only use a small amount if you're applying the product to dry hair to avoid weighing it down.

While we love having an array of hair products on hand, sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures.

If you're travelling or static hair strikes in the middle of the day, you've got to make do with what you've got. If all you've got is hand lotion in your bag, it can work in a pinch!

Again, make sure you're only using a small amount on your ends to tame the flyaways , and we'd recommend washing it out as soon as you can, as it's probably not sulphate-free!

If you wear hats often but they always make your hair static, there are ways to fix the issue without giving up your beloved headgear.

The static is caused by the electrons from your hair clinging to the hat and being removed when you take your hat off. To keep your hair electrons balanced, you can wrap your hair in a silk or satin scarf before putting your hat on.

The smooth fabric doesn't rub your hair, leaving your well-balanced electrons intact no matter how many times you remove your hat during the day.

detangle your hairA static guard can be incredibly useful if your hair is chronically dry and requires more than a couple of rounds with a moisturising shampoo.

These products are sprayed onto your brush or comb when you detangle your hair . The anti-static formula helps keep your hair balanced to avoid pesky flyaways throughout the day.

This method doesn't weigh down your hair but provides longer-lasting results than just using water on your brush!

For longer-lasting results, it's important to keep your hair as moisturised as possible. To do this, you need to use the right products for your hair.

If you have chronic dry hair, we recommend adding  scalp exfoliation  to your weekly hair routine to keep your hair follicles healthy and clean.

We also recommend adding a hair mask to your routine to give your hair an extra boost of moisture. Our  Hair Extensions Boost  is perfect for this.

Our sulphate-free Shampoo & Conditioner Duo is also great for keeping hair beautifully moisturised during regular hair care routines.

Having staticky hair can also cause your extensions to become static, too. Thankfully, dealing with static hair extensions is pretty similar to getting rid of static charge from your natural hair.

If you have clip-in hair extensions , the easiest way to deal with flyaways is to remove them from your hair and brush through them with a metal comb or rub anti-static sheets over them to rebalance their natural charge.

For semi-permanent hair extensions , you'll need to treat the hair like your natural hair to keep it moisturised and in the best possible condition.

As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure, so it's important to keep your hair and extensions as healthy as possible to avoid having static hair ruin your good hair day!

We're buzzing with electricity all the time, but sometimes, our bodies can get out of balance and build up an electrical charge.

Wearing a hat, for example, can cause electrons from your hair to cling to your headwear. When you remove the hat, your negative electrons may leave with the hat, leaving your hair positively charged and causing flyaways! Who knew there was such a thing as too much positivity?

That's the science-y bit behind static hair, but to make it simpler, there are a few everyday activities that can contribute to dry, frizzy hair. These include:

• Using harsh shampoos and conditioners

• Blow-drying your hair too often

• Exposing your hair to cold weather

• Rubbing your hair with a towel

All of these things can strip away the natural oils that help to keep your hair hydrated, leaving you with unruly, static hair.

Keeping flyaway hair under control is key to keeping your hair on point at all times. That's where our range of RiRi hair extension products comes into play!

All our hair care products are designed to nourish and moisturise your natural hair and your extensions to help fight static hair and give you gorgeous, healthy hair.
