As someone with wavy, sometimes wayward hair, I’m acutely weather-aware. This is less peculiar than it sounds and simply a consequence of the fact that fluctuating weather conditions often register on my head, and in the mirror, - well before I’ve even had the chance to look outside.
Sometimes, the elements align, delivering effortless corkscrew curls, pleasing volume, or waves that look almost considered. But such harmony is not only infrequent, but wildly unpredictable - particularly at this time of year, when moisture, gusting winds and sharp cold snaps arrive in quick succession and with little warning.
