For some curly girls, frizzy hair presents a big problem. While some curly girls don’t mind a bit of frizz, others really don’t want to deal with it or be bothered, and that’s totally ok! Therefore, here are some of the best ways to combat frizz for curls. Give these great suggestions a try, and make sure you share your favorite tips and tricks for other curly girls to use.
Understand what’s causing your frizz:
Before you even get started, try to figure out what’s causing your curls to be frizzy. Are you touching your strands a lot throughout the day, and disrupting your natural curl pattern? Perhaps you’re drying your strands with a terry cloth towel, or blasting them dry with a hairdryer. You might be using the wrong products, or applying them incorrectly You might have some previously existing damage, or perhaps you’ve got product buildup. Whatever it is, identifying the cause can help you figure out what comes next for treating it.
Humidity:
While there isn’t much you can actually do about this, being prepared for the weather and adapting accordingly can help. Monitoring the dew point for your local weather, and keeping an eye on impending rain can be really helpful for figuring out how to adjust your curls accordingly.
Protein or moisture imbalance:
If your curls seem dry, frizzy, or straw like, you might need to adjust your curls to manage a protein or moisture imbalance. Check to see if your curls look frizz free when they’re very wet. If you notice your curl clumps look frizzy even while wet, you might need to adjust your protein and moisture.
Examine your products:
If your curls are frizzy despite your other best efforts, it might be time to examine your products. Perhaps you’re using the wrong products for your curls, or it could be because you haven’t clarified your curls recently. With time, products can build up on your curls, and this will ultimately prevent the products from working as effectively as they can. Therefore, you might need to adapt your routine, or try some other products to see what works best for you.
