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.

Are you tired of your frizzy hair? Do you want to know why your hair is so dull and frizzy? If you have to find out how best to control your frizzy hair, you have come to the right place. Do you know that your frizzy hair can be your beauty highlight instead of an embarrassment? Yes, you have read it right! Your frizzy hair can become bright and beautiful instead of dull and flat. Feel free to read it, how.

What is Frizzy Hair?
Frizzy hair is basically dehydrated (loss of water) hair. The hairs become porous and lose its natural ability to hold moisture and become uneven and untamed. In frizzy hair, the cuticle layers are not held tightly together and thus the texture of hair becomes brittle and coarse.

Remedies for Frizzy Hair: Understanding the cause of frizzy hair is very important in finding out what you have to do to treat it correctly. So why is your hair frizzy? It may be because you have inherited curly, wavy, or frizzy hair from your parents i.e., it comes with your genes. Or your hair has become frizzy or poofy because of being exposed to hot sunny weather (humidity) for a long time. It may also be because of too much of blow drying, perming or treating your hair often with chemicals such as alkaline permanents or with hair bleach.

Frizzy hair can be controlled by the following remedies:

Try to avoid coloring or perming your hair. Even too much brushing than what is needed for proper blood circulation can lead to split ends as well as to hair damage.

Avoid stress and have regular healthy foods containing proteins, vitamins, carbohydrates. Do not skip breakfast and take timely regular sleep. Drink plenty of water to wash out the toxins from your body.

Use warm water while shampooing your hair. Warm water opens the hair cuticles and helps to absorb conditioner which goes directly to your hair shaft (root) and treat it by moisturizing. Do not forget to use cool water while rinsing out the conditioner. Ringing with cool water will close your hair cuticles again and will you to prevent more frizz. Do hair conditioning at least once a month to avoid freezy hair.

Treat your hair with shampoo containing natural humectants. Humectants are moisturizing agents or lubricants that together with natural oil of hair, held the essential moisture your hair needs badly.

Use a good moisturizing conditioner containing vitamin E, Aloe Vera and panthenol after shampooing your hair. Leave it for 3-5 minutes. For best treatment, you may wrap a towel around your hair and leave the conditioner for 15 minutes to get absorbed into your hair cuticles.

Do not rub your hair dry with a towel. This will cause more frizz. Instead, after you wrap your hair with a towel, pat the towel lightly so as to help it absorb extra water from your hair and scalp. If you are using blow dryer, use it in downward direction with a big, round brush.

When your hair is dry, use a wide- toothed brush to comb your hair. Do not comb your hair while it is still wet. Do finger combing to get rid of your hair tangles.

Washing your hair everyday may result in more frizzes. So, avoid it. Let natural oil improve the texture of your hair.

Coconut oil massaging is good for your hair and scalp because it increases blood circulation. While applying oil on your hair, do not overdo it. Use as is needed to maintain a healthy look for proper hair growth and health.

For adding shine and bounce to your hair, apply a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water to your hair.

Now that you know how to avoid frizzy hair, how about trying the above remedies and see which one acts the best for you? Let us know how you are doing. One thing is for sure, to get beautiful hair for a lifetime you have to take proper care of your hair.
