Air Dried Hair Turns Frizzy but Why?
Q) My air dried hair always looks frizzy and I have no clue why? Can you help me? What can I use after a shower to reduce the frizz?I have very long hair (down to my butt) and I've never used hair products on a regular basis. For a while now I've just been pulling it back when it's wet because the frizz is bothersome.I would describe my hair as soft, pretty straight (maybe a slight wave), a bit thin, and not oily. When I use a hair dryer my hair is much more manageable, but it take about 30 minutes to blow dry!! Any suggestions on specific products that might reduce the frizz and leave the hair looking untreated? I just want to leave my hair down to dry for once. Thanks :) Professional Hair Care Answer - A good leave in conditioner Hair glossifiers To defrizz your hair without having to use a straightening iron, use a blow dryer when your hair is almost completely dry. Blow dry your hair DOWN, by holding the hair dryer above your head. Brush your hair down as your blow it dry it thoroughly. It will cut down on the amount of time you have to spend blow drying and will help cut down on frizz. Use John Frieda Finishing Creme This won't totally eliminate frizz but its a way to avoid using an iron. And it really takes no time at all to blow dry and brush your hair a few times. Its well worth the effort! It gives your hair great shine too. This technique will work for most of the day though. You can rewet it a little the next day and blow dry it again even if you don't wash everyday. The heat will reopen the cuticle and since the creme is still in your hair, and help the creme penetrate deeper into your hair shaft. (It's kind of like reapplying it.) The problem during summer of course, is the humidity. You will notice throughout the day that your hair might revert back to being a bit frizzy. Only chemicals can permanently change the structure of the hair. Of course, if you want to stick to air dried hair only, try organic hair products Have you ever had a bad salon experience?
