How to remove frizz from your hair? Some basic tips.

What causes this terrible frizz? The cause lies in a lack of humidity: for example, when a blast of air that's too hot dries it out completely, the hair becomes overly dry and loses definition; or, conversely, too much humidity causes it to swell uncontrollably: when it rains, frizz lurks just around the corner, ready to ruin your hairstyle.

In reality, you just need to know how to proceed.

Here are some less obvious tricks, some useful tips for caring for curly hair:

  1. Don't wash your hair too often . Contrary to popular belief, it's not a good idea to wash curly hair more than twice a week, as this strips away the natural oils that keep it soft.
  2. Style your hair on damp hair. Dry it only a little before styling it, so as not to overdry it when creating your hairstyle.
  3. Be careful with high temperatures : if you dry your hair with too hot a heat setting, it will dry out and quickly become frizzy. Limit the use of straighteners to the maximum and set the hair dryer to the lowest setting.
  4. Keep your hair hydrated : Curly hair is further from the scalp than straight hair, so it doesn't benefit from the scalp's natural oils to stay hydrated. To address this problem, the best strategy is to use a mask once a week.
  5. Opt for silk for your sheets : silk is a more slippery fabric than cotton, which absorbs a lot of the moisture from your hair. You'll find that using a silk pillowcase will help you wake up with less dry hair, and with a certain style!
  6. If you really can't seem to do anything with your hair, do this: gather your hair into a neatly combed bun . As it dries, it will slowly create natural waves fit for a real star!

How to dry curly hair and create frizz-resistant hairstyles

Another very important aspect to consider when caring for curly hair is styling. This is often where the problem lies: trying to create perfect curls, we use a heat setting that's too hot, or we hold the hair dryer too close to the strand, hoping to better set the style, but ending up with just the opposite.


To prevent curly hair from becoming frizzy and damaged, it must be treated gently and, above all, with the right products. For styling, it's best to use a cream that defines curls without weighing them down: a great choice is Curl Rock from the Tigi Bed Head line.

We've introduced these products to our store specifically with the needs of those who want perfect curls in mind. With Sebastian hair products, you can easily tame unruly hair and achieve well-defined curls or wavy waves, depending on your preference. Apply the cream to towel-dried hair, then dry it upside down with the help of your trusty diffuser.
