One of the main causes of frizzy hair, whether hair is curly, wavy or straight is styling product build-up.
When a variety of styling products are used it's important to keep build-up to a minumum to prevent frizz.
How? Follow My tips below
1. Opt for the softest possible styling products available which still provide desired benefits. Avoid products known to cause build-up. Remember, all products do not work for all people and their hair. What works for one may not work for others.
2. Less is more. Even when utilizing softer styling products use the least mount possible.
3. When gel is utilized apply to hair which is damp to minimize amount applied.
4. Utilize products which offer multiple benefits at the same time. You'll require fewer products, Consider products which combine benefits of conditioning, frizz-fighting, styling and hold.
5. Banish styling products with wax, strong gel or heavy paste
6. Emulsify styling products in palms of hands before appling This achieves better distribution throughout the hair and you will use less product
7. Apply styling products at ends of hair first, working up to right beneath the roots. This will prevent scalp from becoming coated with product. The scalp will create oils to lift product away.
8. Always apply styling spray at least 12-14 inches from your head
9. Deep cleanse hair once a week with product designed to remove buildup. Never use more than once per week since oil glands may overproduce, which can compound the problem.
Use only professional hairdressers products. cheaper products often cause many of the build up problems
10. Avoid cleansing hair in hard water which can cause product build-up, dull limp hair and styling products which don't work properly. Hard water washing may also encourage frizz.
11 Always completely rinse all shampoo and conditioners completely out of the hair. Build-up occurs when there is failure to completely rinse products from hair.
12. Be sure to completely rinse the ends of the hair.
13. Finish with a cool to cold water rinse to close cuticles and block frizz.
14. Style with a gel, mousse or cream. Hairsprays should always be the last step.
When possible use products which block humidity. This will minimize need to continuously reapply hairspray.
If you notice a particular styling product initially making hair look beautiful, but creating a dull coating, dump the product and experiment with alternative products.
When you truly desired to control frizz first address product build-up and you are on track to control unwanted hair fuzz.
