My guess is that if it's extremely humid there, the dew point is probably high. If that's the case, then you should avoid humectants (like glycerin, honey, etc.) in your LI or styling products - humectants are great in moderate dew points, but once the dew point gets over 60, humectants can pull too much moisture into your hair and cause it to swell and create frizz. Instead, look for anti-humectants (certain oils and butters - like coconut oil, olive oil, castor oil, shea butter, etc.) that can help seal the hair. Silicones are synthetic anti-humectants, if you use these in your hair. If you're following the CG method, you can try using products with water-soluble cones (like demethicone copolyl, or PEG modified demethicone).
