Default Humidity and Glycerin, I'm confused..

Its getting warmer and I live in the NE and it can get sticky humid. With no product my hair puffs up like a chia pet..So I need to use something to combat the humidity right? I checked my hair stuff and 95% have glycerin..doesnt this draw moisture to the hair?

My hair gets dry so i need to keep it moisturized..I'm not sure what products I should be using now....I do twist outs mainly and I need a hold product. It looks good when i leave the house ..halfway through the day it goes pooofff

I use KBB Hair Milk and Hair nector as my leave in, Style with Curls Gelesce and Mouse for hold

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

Curls Milkshake current leave in, Fantasia IC w/Olive Oil gel for smoothing/shine, Curls Goddess Glaze for Twist/Braid outs.

Niclar, Curl Chemist recently did a good article about this topic. Sounds like a good pomade might be in your future!
