Easy ways to combat static in hair caused by wearing a hat?

[ajrsmom]

My daughter has such a problem with static in her hair when she wears a hat on her head. Is there an easy way to combat this?

I lightly spray hairspray on her hair before putting the hat on her head but that doesn't seem to help.

She has a lot of hair but it's so thin so I really can't use a lot of hair products in her hair without them making it look greasy.

Any tips on what I can do to help this situation?

Ajrsmom,

Below is a link to a short article on hair issues, just scroll down to find the paragraph on static hair.

Now that the weather has changed and the house air is drier have static hair too in the morning. After I shower I put some aloe vera gel in my hair. the gel contains saponins, slightly sticky plant compounds that offer a medium strength hold. Unlike most hair gels aloe vera doesn't have drying alcohol. So far my hair looks healthier since I have been using it.
I use my aloe plants that I grow by my side door. Cut a leaf and leave it in the frigerator in a plastic bag. One end cut lasts a long time. Does anyone else use aloe gel for their hair?

Try rubbing the inside of her hat with a dryer sheet. Also, you can soak her comb in fabric softener and water or conditioner and water before combing her hair.
