Frizzy Hair Remedies

Looking for frizzy hair remedies?

Frizzy hair is unwanted, unsightly and tough to control. You don't like how it makes your hair look, and you want it gone.

Unfortunately, frizzy hair is a fact of life for many women, particularly (but not exclusively) for women with curly hair. And if you don't apply some good frizzy hair remedies, your frizz can turn very quickly into split-ends, a definite no-no.

So what to do about your frizz? What frizzy hair remedies truly work?

First, to know what frizzy hair remedies will work, we have to know what frizz is. Frizz is a condition where very small bits of hair shift away from the cuticle and hair shaft resulting in a fuzzy effect. It happens when your hair is dry and lacks moisture.

Some women are genetically predisposed toward having frizzy hair. But others experience frizz when confronted with high humidity. Humidity removes moisture from the hair shaft resulting in a frizzy condition. You can also get frizz from over-drying your hair through the use of heating implements. However you get it, finding success with frizzy hair remedies requires that you understand it's most prevalent source - lack of moisture.

Other things to avoid when trying to control frizz are:

" Over-processing of hair through excessive perming or coloring
" Stress and poor nutrition (as with all things, a healthy mind and body can help you reach ultimate frizz control)
" Over brushing or combing of your hair can lead to breakage and frizz

So now that you know what it is, what can you do about it? How to reach that nirvana - frizz control?

Here are some essential frizzy hair remedies.

1. Shampoo your hair in warm water. Warm water will open the cuticles of your hair so that when you add conditioner, the conditioner will go right into your hair shaft and begin moisturizing right away. Additionally, make sure you rinse out your conditioner with cool water. This will close the cuticles so the moisturizing and conditioning agents remain sealed in your hair. You will have greater control over frizz with moisturized hair.
2. Keep your hair moisturized to control frizz by conditioning your hair properly. After shampooing, add a good moisturizing conditioner to your hair and leave it in for 3 - 5 minutes. If possible, wrap your hair with a towel, and let the conditioner sink in for 15 minutes. This extra conditioning of your hair will establish a good moisture level that will help prevent frizz.
3. Don't dry your hair by rubbing a towel through it. Rather, wrap your hair with a towel and gently pat it to allow the towel to soak up the excess water. Rubbing the hair will add to the frizz.
4. Use a wide-tooth comb on your hair, and avoid combing or brushing your hair while it's wet.
5. Use a pure silicone styling serum like Simply Stylin' Silk before using a blow dryer, flat iron, curling iron or any other type of heating appliance. Pure silicone will wrap the hair shaft, preventing any potential damage from heat. It will also seal-in the moisture in the hair shaft, preventing the loss of moisture that will lead to frizz. Just rub a few drops in your hands and distribute evenly through the hair before adding heat.
6. Blow dry your hair in smaller sections rather than in a large bunch. This will help you avoid splitting the hair and opening the cuticles, leading to more frizz.
7. Use a deep conditioning treatment at least once a month to establish a significant moisture level in your hair and eliminate damage that might lead to frizz.
8. After styling, mist your hair with Simply Stylin' Light Silk Spray. This light pure silicone product will add a protective shine to your hair which will keep the effects of humidity at bay.
9. Avoid products with a high content of alcohol or drying ingredients. Such products will reduce the level of moisture in your hair, adding to the frizz effect.
