Non-stop frizzy, static hair? You must be tired of it. Such hair is hard to style, and you must be spending lots of money to make the problem go away, while it keeps getting worse… How to tame frizzy hair using wallet-friendly, home methods?
Causes of Frizzy Hair
Hair is frizzy for many reasons. In most cases, frizzy hair is also damaged, stiff and coarse. It is the most common among those who regularly color or bleach their hair or get permanent waves. Hair frizz gets worse in the summer because hair is exposed to the sun. There are some other reasons why hair is not silky smooth, mostly wrong hair care products, e.g. using too much protein on hair or hair oils that are wrongly suited to your hair. All of these things may be giving you frizzy hair.
Home Remedies for Frizzy Hair
There are lots of effective ways to fix frizzy hair at home. We recommend building some hair care habits that will let you tame your unruly hair.
- As soon as you wash off your conditioner, use cold water on hair to seal the cuticle scales. During the shampooing routine, they open up so that nutrients from cosmetics can sink in. Cool water closes them back for smoothness.
- Don’t rub hair with a towel. Let it air-dry instead. Ideally, give up on the hair dryer. If you need to dry the hair fast, then set the coolest airflow and use dryers with ionic features. This will definitely reduce the frizz and static.
- You can tame frizzy hair by applying oils. Regular application of oils on hair improves its condition and guarantees hair is properly hydrated. Oils are also great for sun protection and shielding hair against other external aggressors. A well-suited hair oil applied before blow-drying or flat-ironing secures the strands from the destructive heat, adds smoothness and shine, plus holds back frizz and static flyaways.
- Have your hair ends trimmed regularly because split ends mean weak, dehydrated and also frizzy hair. Make regular salon appointments to keep damage from affecting the lengths and roots. You can’t bind split ends back together.
- You can make the frizzy hair problem worse if you have the wrong brushing tools. A wooden wide-tooth comb is best for combing. Plastic combs cause frizz and static.
