With the arrival of warmer weather, many people head to the beach and enjoy outdoor BBQs. However, along with the fun comes the dreaded hair frizz. The combination of higher temperatures and humidity can wreak havoc on all hair types, especially those with curly hair.
Instead of hiding from the frizz, embrace it! Learn about effective hair care tips and products that will help you keep your hair smooth and frizz-free from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
Wait, what causes frizz anyway?
Heat styling and harmful grooming habits often lead to frizz. This can result in breakage, tangling, and split ends, giving your hair a dry and lifeless appearance.
Frizz occurs when the protective outer layers of the hair are damaged, exposing the inner cortex layer and causing breakage.
Other factors that can contribute to frizz include humidity, lack of moisture, using harsh hair products, and rough towel-drying techniques.
To combat frizz, it’s important to use heat protectant sprays when styling your hair, avoid over-washing which can strip natural oils, use a moisturizing hair mask regularly, and opt for a microfiber towel or soft t-shirt to gently dry your hair.
How to get rid of frizzy hair once and for all
Proper hydration is key in the fight against frizz. Follow these tips to achieve silky, frizz-free hair.
1. Choose a glycerin-packed shampoo + conditioner
Avoid sulfates and opt for products rich in glycerin to combat frizz. Glycerin helps to hydrate the hair and create a protective barrier that locks in moisture.
Customized shampoo and conditioner with glycerin can target specific hair needs, such as fighting frizz and adding shine.
2. Use a deep conditioning mask at least once a week
Use a deep conditioning mask weekly to deeply moisturize and protect your hair from heat damage and split ends.
3. Ditch your regular hair towel
Dry your hair gently with a microfiber towel instead of a cotton one to reduce frizz. Consider “plopping” your hair in a T-shirt for curly hair.
4. Use a diffuser when drying your hair

Avoid direct heat on your hair by using a diffuser when blow-drying. This helps reduce friction and minimize frizz.
5. Condition your hair all day long
Combat dry hair with leave-in products for all-day hydration. Apply to wet or dry hair to smooth frizz and flyaways.
6. Invest in a silk pillowcase
Switch to using a silk pillowcase to reduce frizz and split ends. Silk is gentle on the hair, preserving its natural oils and reducing damage overnight.
7. Skip the hairspray
Avoid hairspray with drying alcohols that contribute to frizz. These products create build-up and make the hair appear puffy.
8. Touch up with a mascara wand
Use a clean mascara wand with dry oil spray to effortlessly smooth stubborn flyaways.
9. Don’t be a stranger to your hairstylist
Regular trims can help reduce frizz by eliminating split ends and breakage. Aim to get a haircut every eight weeks to maintain healthy hair.
10. Let your hair air-dry before blow-drying
Seal the hair cuticle with hot tools to prevent frizz. Apply a heat protectant before blow-drying and use low heat settings.
11. Hands off the hair!
Avoid touching your hair frequently to minimize friction and frizz. Use accessories like headbands to keep your hair in place and prevent frizz.

Whether you want to control frizz or enhance your natural hair, start with our customized shampoo and conditioner.
Frizzy hair is a common issue often caused by dryness, particularly in humid conditions. There are tips and products available to help manage unruly hair and tame frizz.
1. Get rid of split ends
Split ends weaken the hair and contribute to frizz, especially in hot weather. Repairing products can help, but getting a haircut is the most effective solution to prevent split ends.
If you live in a humid climate, consider a haircut with blunt lines to maintain the weight of the hair.
2. Don’t wash your hair with hot water
Hot water can dry out the scalp, weaken the roots, and lead to breakage and brittle hair.
To protect your hair, wash with warm water and finish with a cold rinse for added moisture.
It is also important to use a gentle shampoo and conditioner that is suitable for your hair type. Avoid washing your hair too frequently, as this can strip away natural oils and lead to dryness. Additionally, try to limit the use of heat styling tools and opt for air drying whenever possible to prevent further damage to your hair.
3. Wash your hair with a frizz-fighting shampoo
Our Frizz Ease range is designed to prevent frizz and promote healthy hair.
Choose from nourishing shampoos such as Frizz Ease Miraculous Recovery Shampoo for dry hair or Frizz Ease Dream Curls Shampoo for curly frizzy hair.
In addition to using a lightweight conditioner like Frizz Ease Weightless Wonder Conditioner, there are other ways to condition frizzy hair without adding weight. One option is to use a leave-in conditioner specifically formulated for fine, frizzy hair. These products can help hydrate and smooth the hair without making it feel heavy or greasy.
Another tip is to avoid applying conditioner to the roots of your hair, focusing instead on the mid-lengths to ends. This can help prevent your hair from looking weighed down or flat. Additionally, incorporating a weekly deep conditioning treatment into your hair care routine can help keep frizz at bay while maintaining a lightweight feel.
5. Use a weekly hair mask for deeper nourishment
Use a weekly hair mask to strengthen and hydrate your hair.
Consider products like Frizz Ease Miraculous Recovery Deep Conditioner for distressed hair or Frizz Ease Dream Curls Ultra Nourishing Deep Conditioner for curly hair.
6. Dry your hair gently
Gently pat your hair dry to avoid damage.
Use a microfiber towel for a gentle drying process.
Avoid rubbing your hair vigorously with a towel, as this can cause breakage and frizz.
Consider using a leave-in conditioner or a heat protectant spray before blow drying to keep your hair protected and moisturized.
7. Smooth on a serum while your hair’s wet
Apply hair serums to wet or dry hair to reduce frizz and flyaways.
Choose from options like Frizz Ease All-in-1 Original Serum for heat protection or Frizz Ease All-in-1 Lightweight Serum for fine hair.
8. Minimise heat damage
Use a heat protectant before styling with hot tools.
Try our Frizz Ease Heat Defeat Protecting Spray for added protection.
Additionally, consider using heat styling tools on a lower setting to reduce the amount of heat damage to your hair. It’s also important to not hold the heat tool in one spot for too long to prevent excessive damage. Regular trims to remove split ends can also help keep your hair healthy and minimize heat damage.
9. Use your hairdryer’s diffuser
Use a diffuser when styling curly or wavy hair to prevent frizz and tangles.
Avoid rough hair drying for smoother results.
10. Use a frizz-repellent hairspray to finish your look
Control flyaways and set your style with anti-frizz hairspray.
Spray a clean mascara wand with Frizz Ease Moisture Barrier Intense Hold Hairspray for a sleek finish.

Dealing with frizz regardless of your hair type? Frizz often stems from damaged hair cuticles.
Fight frizz with hydrating products and stick to a frizz-proof routine.
When styling your hair, consider using a smoothing serum or oil to help combat frizz and add shine. These products can help to tame flyaways and keep your hair looking sleek.
Another tip to reduce frizz is to avoid touching your hair too much throughout the day. The natural oils from your hands can transfer to your hair, causing it to become greasy and frizzy.
For those with curly hair, consider using a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer to dry your hair without causing frizz. Additionally, try to limit the use of heat styling tools, as excessive heat can damage the hair and lead to frizz.
Lastly, consider getting regular trims to keep your hair healthy and free of split ends, which can contribute to frizz. By following these tips and incorporating them into your hair care routine, you can effectively combat frizz and achieve smooth, manageable hair.
