Want to fight frizz with your curls under control? With the right techniques and products for frizzy, curly hair, fighting frizz, defining curl and keeping your locks looking loose and carefree can be as natural as your curls.
Shampooing
- Gently finger-comb your hair before washing to loosen up tangles.
- Treat your curly hair delicately as if it were fine silk. Gently massage in a curly hair shampoo, like Curls Shampoo, starting at the roots and working down, taking care not to pile hair on top of your head.
Conditioning
- Moisturize and protect your tresses with a curly hair conditioner. Daily treatment with Curls Conditioner creates soft, moisturized curls and helps prevent frizz.
- Leave your curls with volume by conditioning only the middle and ends of your hair where it's most susceptible to damage.
- Condition the entire strand of your hair for curly tresses that dazzle with shine.
- For hydration, try Pro-V Nourishing Intensive Moisturizing Mask once a week after you shampoo.
- Detangling is great for longer, curled strands. Pro-V Detangling Light Conditioning Mist does double duty, detangling hair and providing gentle conditioning.
Styling
- The right style demands the right tools. A wide-toothed comb helps detangle wet hair with ease, and using a blow dryer with a diffuser helps prevent curls from frizzing.
- Protect your curls against styling damage by applying Curls Milk before you style or blow dry. Your curls will be virtually frizz-free and shiny.
- Maximize your hair’s volume. Flip hair upside down and scrunch while drying, making sure to dry the root. When hair is just barely dry, flip head back up and finish drying while scrunching. Leave a little moisture on the hair and finish by applying Curl Lock Hairspray.
Hair Maintenance
- Avoid disrupting the definition of the curl. When hair is dry, try to touch it as little as possible to avoid causing frizz.
- If you must comb or brush your curls when dry, use your fingers instead, to help keep your curls defined and frizz at bay.
- Curls need special attention. Choose a hairdresser with lots of experience working with curly hair.
