Waves

"I'm a firm believer that if you have wavy hair, you should go with the flow," says stylist Sally Hershberger, who owns her own salon in New York City. "When there's a lot of moisture in the air, blown-straight hair just gets puffy. A natural look is easier and sexier."

Style your hair with your fingertips instead of a brush: Once your hair is dry, slip your hands beneath it and massage it at the roots. Breaking up the style from underneath will give you more definition—and control the frizz.

If you do brush your hair out, use finishing cream to tamp the volume back down. "It's a classic trick," says Kevin Mancuso, stylist at the Rita Hazan Salon in New York City. "You twist the hair, let it dry, brush it out, and then run through a little product to give it shine and control."

Regular trims go a long way toward healthier-looking hair. "Dry ends look unkempt, especially if you lighten their hair," says New York stylist Ricky Pannell, owner of Snip N Sip salon.
