"It goes without saying to pack your umbrella, but if you&amp;#039;re caught short, these rain-proof tress tricks should help you survive a storm frizz-free. 1. Start in the Shower Wet weather in the forecast? Wage the war on frizz in the shower. Always shampoo and condition with a formula specifically designed for frizz, like Pureology Super Smooth. 2. Blot Dry Hair legend Trevor Sorbie advises: &amp;quot;After washing your hair, avoid rough drying with a towel because this can ruffle the cuticle, causing frizz. Instead blot dry with a towel before blow-drying to remove excess water.&amp;quot; If you&amp;#039;re caught in a rain shower the same applies \u2014 just blot your wet hair with a paper towel, which will absorb more water without making matters worse. 3. Prep School Rain-proof your hair by using a product to seal the cuticles. After washing, VO5 lead stylist Claire Rothstein recommends VO5 Smoothly Does It Frizz Free Cr\u00E8me, advising you &amp;quot;put through the lengths and ends of your hair before blow-drying.&amp;quot; Finish styling with a humidity-proofing hairspray.  4. Go From Wet to Dry ASAP When your hair gets wet, anything you can do to speed up the drying time will minimize frizzing. Trevor says: &amp;quot;Blow-dry hair as soon as possible; the quicker it goes from wet to dry, the easier it is to control the frizz.&amp;quot; If you&amp;#039;re been caught out in the rain with no hair-dryer to be found, apply this technique by getting under a hand-dryer. The downwards-facing nozzle should help smooth your cuticles. With both methods \u2014 try and get your hair bone dry, then let it cool completely before going back into the elements. 5. Avoid Touching Your Hair As your hair will already be porous from the rain, the more you touch your hair the sweat and heat from your hands can push moisture into the hair shaft, causing it to swell even more so that cuticles become raised \u2014 and visibly frizzy. 6. Carry a Frizz Fighter Always arm yourself with something that will smooth any rough cuticles, like a serum. &amp;quot;A small pump of this rubbed through your hands and gently smoothed over your hair from the bottom up (only apply to the roots if you have only a tiny film left on your hands and if you really need it) should keep your hair under control in even the most unpredictable weather conditions,&amp;quot; Claire says. Alternatively, try a flyaway tamer. These handbag-handy wands look like a clear hair mascara and are perfect for invisibly controlling frizz at the roots. Try the Ojon Rare Blend Tamer Wand. Or look in your beauty bag! A tiny bit of the classic Smashbox Photo Finish Primer has a silky formula which glosses over frizz and Vaseline (when warmed up between the fingers) works well as a smoothing serum. 7. Banish Your Brush Don&amp;#039;t brush out any natural wave formations that set in your hair after it gets wet. If your hair has dried with a kink or curl then disturbing it will cause unruliness. To detangle, finger-comb the lengths or use a wide-toothed comb. 8. Sleep in Silk If you&amp;#039;ve washed and straightened your hair at night, prep for the next day by sleeping in a silk scarf. This will help keep it smooth and straight and that little bit better prepared for the wet weather. 9. Rock Wet-Look Locks If all else fails, just go with it! Put your hair into an effortless up-do (after all, gym chic is a thing!), or embrace the wet-look water baby trend by loading on layers of mousse for an intentional shower-wetness.
