Baltimore Humidity and Hair Hacking

We know, it’s hot out this Summer 2025 and we’re not sure how you’re staying cool, but we know how to make sure that your breezy blowout or bouncy curls can keep their look without the humidity giving you all the frizz!

First let’s understand where frizz comes from. Frizz happens when your hair panics. Dry or damaged hair is like a sponge; it sees moisture in the air and absorbs it, swelling up because it’s trying to repair itself and reclaim the lost moisture from the damaged spots.

There’s a solution: Since your hair wants its hydration back, give it a style that first seals in all the water from washing, and doesn’t overheat or unneccessarily strip any moisture away during the styling process. Fill that cuticle up then smooth it down, and you’ll be frizz-free. Some products are better suited to do this than others, but our experts can help you find the right ones for your hair and look.

The styling itself can be cool relief for you and your hair. Use the cool setting on your blowdryer! Cool down the cuticle of your hair so that the style you give it, is the style that your hair settles in and doesn’t have to shrink in on iteslf after being heated up.

The damaged ends of your hair are also letting frizz play havoc on your locks. Split ends act like a wick soaking up all the moisture in the air and pushing it up the shaft of your hair blasting it apart and creating more damage that could cause more frizz. A clean cut at the end of your hair creates a smooth surface that is harder for humidity to penetrate… Yes, we are recommending that you get a cut if you are having a hard time with frizz.

Good luck out the Chesapeake Humidity this summer!

    Defending your Hair from Color Damage

    Keeping you hair healthy while getting the look you want is our biggest priority at DryLand Salon, and sometimes that means talking you out of something you ask for from our stylists. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t make recommendations for ways to get you that look while doing no harm!


    Our gorgeous client never colored her beautiful hair, but she wanted to try something fun with balayage anyway. A little bit of dimension goes a long way. Rather than use full harsh lighteners on her hair, our stylist offered to use color to make an extremely subtle and ultimately less damaging change to her virgin hair.

    This look is a balayage done with an additive color rather than stripping the hair with lightener. Our stylist also did not pull the color all the way to the most fragile part of the hair, the ends, so the whole effect is a healthier, shinier, extremely-enviable look that the client LOVED!!

    Why is it called DryLand Salon?

    Why is it called “DryLand?”

    Did you know that the owners of DryLand Salon are sisters, and that they love sailing? They love it so much that when trying to describe how amazing something feels, like a great haircut, they’d put it in terms of a glorious sailing adventure:

    It’s like reaching Dry Land after days at sea.

    We think other sailors understand this feeling, and the depths of emotion that come from sailing adventures, just like the adventure of Susie Goodall in the Golden Globe Sailing Race around the world non-stop.

    It’s a powerful story, and we thought we should share it so that you might also feel some of what it’s like to approach land after so long at sea.

    “Nearing Tasmania, the scent of land nearly knocked her breathless. Soon the flat horizon broke into a rise of mountains, the blues and grays split by a shock of green and brown. She began to feel some excitement at the thought of seeing faces again.”
