8 ways to stop your hair from becoming frizzy

Frizzy hair can drive a woman crazy, to extreme point that sometimes women won’t even go out anymore because of a very bad hair day! But don’t worry: we have tips that can help! Check out our 8 ways to stop your hair from being frizzy.

1. Get the proper haircut.

Frizz can start from split ends, so stop them on their tracks ASAP! Get your hair trimmed every 6-8 weeks to get the split ends out.

2. Don’t Shampoo Every Day

Shampoo can clean your hair, but it can also remove the natural oils from your scalp that can help reduce frizz. Don’t shampoo more than four times per week, and this should help your natural oils help your hair!

3. Use your conditioner!

Condition, condition, condition! Use your conditioner whenever you can. Don’t use shampoo/conditioner combo products, always go for just the conditioners. After shampooing, work your conditioner from root to tip and leave it, as is, for at least two minutes before beginning to rinse.

4. Cold water rinsing only!

Cold water will help seal the hair cuticle to make it extra shiny. So when rinsing your conditioner off, use the coldest water temperature you can take. This will definitely keep your hair from becoming frizzy and fluffy, and can even make its natural shine come out!

5. Air Dry, Hood Dry or Use a Diffuser

Don’t use a towel to rub or shake your hair dry. If you have a hood dryer or a diffuser, use it! But if you don’t have any of these gently get most of the water out by tapping a towel on your hair, and then air dry it.

6. Brushes are a no no!

Don’t brush your hair—EVER! Use a wide-toothed comb or your fingers to style your hair while it’s wet (you may want to comb the conditioner through in the shower to help with tangles). Brushing while wet will break your hair, and brushing while dry will do worse.

7. Clean up your act

Smoking, excessive ingestion of alcohol or caffeine (which are diuretics and have a drying effect on the whole body), chemical treatments (including coloring and perming), and excessive consumption of processed foods can create or worsen frizzy hair.

8. Keep the sun out!

To decrease sun damage, use a shampoo with a built-in SPF. SPF protects your hair just like your skin – and prevents it from drying out.
