Dude, I have this problem too. But I live alone, it's not like I can 'stock up' the shock power until later when people are around. Granted right now I'm homeless so I'm crashing at other people's houses so I guess I could...

Leave in conditioner or put some hair oil to get rid of the dryness.

I use dryer sheets and Biosilk. It works whether I have straightened, curled, or left my hair wavy.

Though, my Dad, who almost has a white 'fro (his hair is that curly and he has white blond hair!), swears that VO5 hot oil is the only thing that works for him.

So where can you buy this Biosilk and Enjoy stuff you all were talking about? I don't usually give too much thought to hair products since my hair does just as well with the 99-cent stuff as it does with the salon variety, so I don't know. :p

I spray my hairbrush with Static Guard when it happens. If I'm traveling & don't have my little Static Guard with me, I use a dryer sheet (yes, I have dryer sheets in all of my luggage).
