Once your hair has been wet by texture-inducing chlorinated water or salt water, your best option is to pull it into an updo. "A braid is a great option because it tightens all of your hair into place so when it dries, it dries taut and smooth instead of puffing up," says Fugate. "Once it's dry and you let it loose, it will have texture, but it'll be uniform."
