If you’re down with frizz, that’s totally fine. We believe all textures are beautiful as-is, and however you feel comfortable. However, if frizz isn’t for you, you’re in the right place. Here are frizz causing habits , and how to fix them. Give these suggestions a try, and don’t forget to let us know what you think!

Applying products incorrectly:

While experimentation can definitely lead to some amazing results when it comes to curl care, it can also lead to frizz. If you have amazing products that you’ve researched and know are healthy for your curls, but still are trying to combat frizz, you might discover that you’re applying those products incorrectly. Go back to basics and read the back of the bottle, then apply as directed. Once you’ve done that a few times, you should have a better idea as to if the product actually is the issue, or if it was just how it was being applied.

You haven’t clarified:

Believe it or not, not clarifying your curls regularly can actually lead to frizz. Over time, curls tend to be prone to build up from product, or their natural sebum. Therefore, in order to get the best out of your curls, you’ll need to regularly clarify your strands. This removes buildup, allowing your curls to accept more moisture, as well as your products to work better again. Grab yourself a good quality clarifying shampoo, and add it to your regular wash day routine. You won’t need it every time; about once every 6-7 weeks should do it.

Touching curls while drying:

While curls are drying, their natural shape is being solidified. However, if you put your hands in your curls frequently, you may find your strands are prone to frizz. Although it’s ideal to avoid touching your curls as much as possible, it’s even better to do so while your strands are drying. Keep your hands to yourself until your strands are 100% dry, and this will allow your strands to hold their natural shape.
