Curling my hair in the humidity?

If I curl my hair, how much will the humidity affect it? What products can i use on it to help prevent losing the curl? And does anyone know what percentage will make it fall out? Thank you so much :)
oh, i have long thick hair (about 24 inches root to tip), which makes it heavy, and it is just about stick straight, thanks for your help.

Humidity will cause your curls to slowly come undone. For best results, use s shampoo specifically for humidity. My hair is stick straight also. It hold curls best if it hasn't been washed for a couple of days. If you must wash, hold the curl in the iron an extra 5 seconds.

Wow that's tough. I live in Louisiana so I know a thing or two about humidity. finding a way to curl your hair may be tricky and you may need to try different things to see what works for your hair. But I would suggest trying good ole sponge rollers. They usually are black or pink and you can get them any drug store or even the dollar store. You want to do this the night before you want to where your curls so that your hair has enough time to dry in the rollers. After you wash your hair and it's nice and damp, use a curl cream evenly throughout all of your hair. You wanna start parting your hair like a mohawk, start the curls at the crown and work forward, then from the crown down. Roll both sides and done. Don't hair spray until the end or your hair will get crunchy and stick to itself and the rollers. To sleep on it make sure it's wrapped so they don't get messy. You want to practice this a few times before the day you want to wear them to make sure they come out the way you want. Good luck and have fun!

Well it depends where you live, if it is florida or anything around there why even bother having a hairstyle lol the heat will just affect it.
But you could try using a lot of hairspray and mousse to keep the curls intact.
