We love summer, but summer doesn’t always love us back. There are sunburns, bug bites, weird tan lines and the worst of them all: frizzy hair. Whether it be adorning our hair with tactfully tied scarves or teasing it until our volume is impressively in place, we’ve come up with 16 humidity-masking hair tricks that will fight the frizz.

1. Scarf Headband ($16): Whether you’re wearing your hair up or down, a scarf headband is a convenient way to add both flair and polish to your look while taming those little flyaway hairs.

2. Keep Backcombing: Since our hair is virtually always up during the summertime, teasing your crown is a perfect way to add some volume to an updo. (via Cara Loren)

3. Coconut Oil: Towel dry your hair, rub in a little bit of coconut oil, and roll it into a bun; when you pull it out, you’ve got a really lovely dried wave and the coconut oil seals it. (via The Every Girl)

4. Wear Headbands: With this hippy headband you can incorporate some festival style, stay cool and keep your hair out of your face. (via Brit + Co)

5. Rinse Cold: Right before you get out of the shower, blast your strands with the coldest water you can stand. This step will help seal the cuticle, helping to put major frizz like this in its place. (via Bella Sugar)

6. Deep Condition: An intense conditioner is a first start for hair rehab; for best results, apply the conditioner, put on a plastic cap and wrap with a towel for five to 10 minutes. (via Free People)

7. Fine Hair Help: If you have fine hair like Jennifer Aniston, try washing it every two to three days when it’s humid and stay away from heavy conditioners so hair can maintain its body without looking greasy and oily. (via Daily Makeover)

8. DIY Hair Serum: Seal your hair before and after with a moisturizing serum to get things completely under control before you venture outside. (via Brit + Co)

9. Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse: The acidity of apple cider vinegar does wonders to smooth frizzy hair, and as an added plus gives it a great healthy shine. Pour it over your hair after shampooing and then rinse with cold water to achieve the ulimate shine. (via Free People)

10. Embrace The Curls: Sometimes it just looks better to let nature take over and enhance your natural waves with a bit of beach spray and serum on the ends. (via How Does She)

11. Texturize and Spray: To manage thick hair like Leona Lewis, use texturizing creams and sprays to help create more movement and give locks a frizz-free shine. (via The Daily Makeover)

12. DIY Strand Strengthener: The proteins in gelatin can help repair damaged hair making it less prone to frizz, so put that Jello to good use with this hair mask recipe! (via Redbook Mag)

13. Clear Mascara: Instead of weighing your hair down with heavy oils, tame flyaways around your root area with a clear mascara wand: just brush, smooth, and go! (via Byrdie)

14. Frizz For Natural Hair: Gals with natural hair like Jordan Sparks should try to avoid alcohol-based products as they tend to dry out hair, which can lead to frizz.

15. Skip Shampoo: Shampoo can dry out your your hair’s natural oils, so every other time you wash your hair, try skipping shampoo, or using half of what you would normally use. (via Byrdie)

16. Pony Love: If all else fails, remember ponytails are your friend and just pull everything back into a perky updo! (via Brit + Co)

Starbucks Just Made The Best Decision Ever With Their Menu Prices

“Amen,” all the Starbucks-frequenting vegans, lactose intolerants, and anti-dairy people said in unison. Starbucks is no longer charging extra for non-dairy milk customizations! Starting November 7, 2024, the coffee giant saidthey’re nixing the up-charge on alternative milks like soy, coconut, almond, and oat.

Starbucks

“At the heart of the Starbucks Experience has, and always will be, the ability to customize beverages and our baristas’ expertise in helping you find, and craft your Starbucks beverage,” a Starbucks announcement reads. “Substituting non-dairy milk in a handcrafted beverage is the second most requested customization from our customers, behind adding a shot of espresso.”

The chain reported that almost half of U.S. customers that pay for non-dairy milk could see a price reduction of more than 10%. The news comes amidst the company's recent 6% drop in sales, along with customer complaints that Starbucks is simply charging too much for their goodies – something the newly-appointed Starbucks CEO, Brian Niccol, seems to be addressing.

Starbucks

How much savings are we really talking about with this menu update? Most Starbucks stores charge $0.70 to customize your drink with soy, coconut, almond, and oat milks. Some locations in hotspots like New York City even see an up to $0.90 upcharge.

A regular Caffé Latte in my area (Denver, CO) costs $5.25, and if I were to customize it with an alternative milk, it brings the price up to $5.95 ($6.43 total with tax). That's around a 13% increase that I luckily won't be seeing anymore once the new non-dairy changes go into effect.

Starbucks also announced the pricing update on their Instagram page. Many commenters seem elated to hear the news.

“FINALLY!!!!!!” one user wrote.

“People should never have been getting charged because of allergies or dietary restrictions,” another person said. “It’s [about] time 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻”

“Good call as long as nothing else goes up,” someone else noted. “Prices are getting way [too] high even for a simple, non fancy coffee.”

Per Taylor Jenkins Reid's official website, Atmoshpere is set in the 80s and tells the tale of one woman's journey through space.

Joan Goodwin's love for space has led her to a lovely role as a physics and astronomy professor at Rice University.
