Always dreamed of taming your messy, curly mane? These simple recommendations can facilitate your journey to frizz-free locks!

1. Use Right Products

Using the wrong products can be detrimental to both the looks and the health of your tresses.

  • Look for products designed for curly hair. You best shot is to use shampoos, conditioners, and styling products specifically for your hair type. They usually contain the elements necessary for curly hair.
  • Avoid parabens and silicones in your shampoo. These chemicals should be avoided in general, but are especially damaging for curly and frizzy locks. They can worsen the already messy and untamable mane.
  • Stay clear of the products containing alcohol. Alcohol tends to dry out the hair shafts making them dull and brittle. Try to avoid any products, which contain this substance, including hair sprays and gels.

2. Wash Properly

  • Do not overwash. Curly hair often tends to be on the drier side. Overwashing it can lead to increased frizziness and dryness. Make sure to shampoo your locks three times per week at most. We also suggest going longer without washing if you can. Use dry shampoo on the days, when you don’t want to cleanse your scalp properly.
  • Wash the proper way. Try concentrating the product on the roots instead of slathering it all over the general length of the hair. The latter will get cleansed second-handedly when you rinse out the soapy water. Make sure to condition properly. Apply the products suitable for your hair type to the ends of your locks and work it in upwards to the mid-shafts. Let it sit for five or so minutes before rinsing out with cold water.
  • Nourish every time. Make sure to moisturize and nourish you tresses as often as needed. Try out hydrating DIY hair masks and hot oil treatments. They will soften your locks, making them thicker and shinier. Repeat the procedure two times per month to keep you hair looking as good as if it was treated in a hair salon in New York City.

3. Handle With Care

  • Avoid rubbing. Rough treatment of your locks can lead to excessive frizziness. Pat your hair dry with a soft cotton cloth instead of rubbing it with a towel. The best choice would be to ditch the towel altogether, letting your tresses air dry instead.
  • Brush and comb properly. Don’t brush your hair when it’s dry. Usually, we suggest avoiding brushing hair when it is wet, but for you it might be the best choice; otherwise, the hairs will get separated and will create a frizzy, static-y mess. Try using a wide-tooth comb instead or you can try running your fingers through the strands. Use water or light hair oils to make the process easier.

4. Style Properly

  • Lay off heat. Try using heating tools as rarely as possible. We also suggest ditching the blow dryer. The hot temperature increases the risk of frizziness and can cause serious damage to the hair shafts.
