If your 'ukulele is used to being dryer it might be a problem. I'd talk to a guitar guy at the music shop. The same principles should apply to each instrument. I can’t be sure.

I'm sorry, I'm new to this. Thanks. Hey Brad,
I know you said that you are in Hawaii and the humidity, sometimes, is 80-90%, if I start using the humidifier in my uke case, which is a small soft case, will it be safe if it reaches as high as that?
I’m sorry, I’m new to this.
Thanks.

As is, you should be fine. If the humidity goes any lower you probably want to use the humidifier in your case. As is, you should be fine.

I have a hygrometer in my room and another in my case. They both read pretty much the same. I also have a humidifier for my case that I am not yet using. My questions are, is my uke safe in my room setting and should I start using my humidifier in my case? I am living in the smoky mountains of NC and the humidity in my room goes between 35 and 65.

Over here in Hawai'i the humidity is 80-90% a lot of the times and I haven't had any problems, so the odds of you overdoing it are slim if you feel like you need the extra precaution.
