Comments on How to Care For Curly, Frizzy Hair

When you get out of the shower, wrap your hair in a towel. Leave it up for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until it dries a little. Comb the hair on top (not bottom) and tie in a pony tail as low as possible. Let dry and remove. Frizz is gone. A conditioner for dry hair works best.

I wear my hair in it's natural curly state. I'm not biracial. I use shampoos that don't contain SLS, which is drying. Sodium laureth/lauryl sufate is my no no. I don't shampoo too often, but I use conditioners every day to add moisture and keep my hair clean. If I need to clarify my hair, then I'll use a gentle shampoo like J/A/S/O/N aloe vera. I always use a creamy, leave-in conditioner, and I dry my hair by plopping it with a silk scarf. Plopping keeps my curls intact and doesn't frizz it up the way towels do. I always air dry or shake out the curls.

Occasionally, use coconut oil on your hair before washing it. Take some coconut oil and heat it (microwave it for about less than a minute). Remember to check if the oil is too hot for you and also remember that the scalp is more sensitive. Be very careful with how hot the oil is. Use a comb to split your hair. Use a fluff of cotton to apply the oil on the scalp. Apply it also on the ends of the hair. Finally, wash your hair with cold/lukewarm water.

1. Take a shower every other day. Your hair needs natural oils to keep your hair from frizzing. 2. For a wet, natural look: While your hair is wet, use light mousses and gels to keep your hair looking healthy and well put together. If you overdo the gel or mousse, your hair will look greasy and oily. 3.Do not blow dry your hair! Blow drying will turn your hair into a huge mess, and ruin your beautiful curls. 4. Care for your hair. Do not brush it too much, that will give you split-ends.

You guys have got to try the Got2b products for curly hair! I use kinky mousse and curlvaceous curl amplifying hair gel! Also, I get my hair thinned once a month, or else it is an ugly fuzzball.

Wash you hair with extra conditioner. As soon as you get out of the shower put mousse, gel and hair spray in your hair.

moisture maniac shampoo and conditioner, i use it every with control freak gel. it has turned my frizzy poof to really shiny nice curls.

let it naturally dry... or in the winter stand next to the firplace.. that'll dry faster without the fros n' splitends. then when it's semi dry.. a little damp.. put some aloe vera gel (for mosquito bites) on the ends and then slowly work your way up to your scalp. presto, n your done and it doesn't feel greasy or overdone. just nice!

I have found that washing my hair every other day with Mane and Tail shampoo works wonders! Then I condition it every day with Mane and Tail conditioner! It's meant for people and horses, believe it or not! People look at me funny when I tell them that I use the same shampoo and conditioner on me as I do on my horse! Mane and Tail products can usually be found anywhere but if you're having trouble finding it, try your local feed or saddlery or horse related store.

After I get out of the shower, I work a small amount of conditioner into the ends, scrunch it upside down and then sleep on it while it's still damp. I am always getting compliments on what pretty hair I have!

Individually curling sections of curly or frizzy hair with gel makes it easier to care for everyday, and stays the same when the gel is all washed out.

Stay away from products with mineral or petrolatum or petroleum. These only clog the hair follicle, block hair from growing from the scalp, and they attract dust. The same goes for wax and silicone (I cry for anyone who uses that). Massaging the scalp for 5-10 minutes gets the natural oils going and allows blood to flow. Use a silk pillowcase or scarf when you sleep to prevent friction and help to avoid split ends; cotton cloths absorb moisture. Maybe you want to spritz your hair with a water and oil mixture at night, so it's nice and moisturized the next day.

I get out of the shower, towel dry and brush my hair. I then shake my hair out and run my fingers through it and let it sit for a little while. As long as I do it before it's dry, I'm OK. I have very thick hair, so I do it in layers. I get an even amount of mousse in it. Starting with the first layer, I put a little bit of Tresemme Curl Care in my palms, and comb my hands through my hair. I do this in each layer, and when I'm done I flip my head, run a little bit more through my whole head, do a quick spray with Fructis Style Cur Shaping Spray Gel, and I'm out the door. It leaves my hair unsticky, no flakes, and naturally curly! I love it.

When I was young, I had stick-straight, soft hair that I loved. Now it seems that I woke up one morning, and all of a sudden it's curly! My mom took me to her hairdresser, and he recommended the curl cream that I now use whenever I wash my hair. It's Kerastase, it comes in an orange bottle, and is called 'Elasto-Curl'. After you wash your hair, towel it dry, brush it, and then rub the cream over your hands and apply it to your hair. Make sure you use it more in the ends as oppose to the roots, or your hair will look oily. Then scrunch your hair a little bit, and let it dry naturally. When it's totally dry, use some sort of product to fight frizz such as John Frieda 'Frizz-Ease'. And voilà, curls that stay in without any frizz!

It is important to know if you have fine curly hair (tends to get fuzzy) or coarse curly hair (a.k.a. Brillo pad hair). This will determine if you need a light product (such as pomade), because coarse hair needs a good heavy duty gel for control. Fine hair would be overwhelmed by a heavy gel, and coarse hair will not have good "curl definition" with a light product. The golden rule is to never use a blowdryer without a diffuser on the end of it!!

I had my hair highlighted and my stylist asked me what brand of shampoo and conditioner I use. I told her it was Pantene and she said Pantene causes split ends and dries your hair out. I switched to Dove, and I love it. My hair is smooth and free of split ends.

Use a good moisturizing shampoo, then apply Neutrogena triple moisture deep conditioner. Leave it on for 2-3 minutes. Get out of the shower and allow your hair to dry slightly, then use Neutrogena leave-in conditioner. Finally, use Garnier curl construct mousse. Create curls with your hands, and finish up with Garnier hair spray. I spent years trying to solve this problem, and this finally did it for me.

Wash your hair about every 3 days, because when it's just washed, it poofs out. Don't brush it, fingercomb it in the shower. When it dries, put your hair in a messy bun. When you take it out, it'll be flatter at the top and curly at the bottom. I don't think this works if you have overly curly hair, though. Sleep with it in a messy bun and just run a thin comb through the top to get the frizz out.

Honestly, all these products don't work! They all have these chemicals that damage your hair! I'm African and I know what it feels like to have a dilemma with you hair! I try to avoid washing my hair when it's flat ironed because I want the straightness to last as long as possible! Pantene works pretty good, but my hair still becomes puffy! Herbal essence just smells great, but it doesn't work at all! John Frieda and Marc Anthony products are just expensive, they don't work on my dry, rebellious, frizzy, thick, curly hair! The only thing that makes me have hot hair is mayonnaise, which tames my hair and makes it soft and manageable. Also, coconut oil is amazing! Another thing that I find amazing is Neutrogena triple moisture!

Wash your hair once a week using shampoo and a rinse. Leave the rinse on for about 2 to 3 minutes, then rinse it out. Afterward, towel dry your hair a little, then part the hair into sections and put rollers in your hair. Either let your hair dry naturally (takes longer), or use a blow dryer. Once you're done, your hair will look shiny, and you will have lasting curls that straighten as you comb your hair (don't use a brush). Under no circumstance apply water to your hair again, it will frizz up. If it rains, your hair might frizz, use rollers to keep it in shape. To maintain curl or wave, part your hair in sections (3 sections in the middle, 3 on the left side of your head and 3 on the right side of your head) and roll each part and pin. After taking it down, your hair will look glamorous. You can sleep with this better than sleeping with rollers. Remember, only wash your hair once a week.

I have thick, frizzy, naturally curly hair. The only thing that works for me is Pantene Curl Defining moose. If the store is out of this, I will get another moose that does not say Alcohol-free. I find if it is Alcohol-free, then it leaves my hair to light weight and allows more frizz. Also, it should never say volumizing!

Sometimes if I am going to be driving for an extended period of time (I work 30 miles from home) I take a shower using Salon Selectives Completely Drenched conditioner and work a small amount of Curl Up through my hair to create shine and stop frizz. Then I tie a ribbon just behind my hair line like a make shift headband and hop in my truck and put the windows down and cruise :) It sounds lazy but it really works well for my waist-length curls to keep them from frizzin' out and also to keep me from having a wet head all day. It's also nice in the summer because the top on my Bronco comes off and I tan and turn heads at the same time!

I have wavy hair, and i think sometimes that it is the most complicated kind of hair to tame. sometimes it's super curly, while other times it is limp and saggy. I have found that i should only brush when completely necessary, and usually use a wide-toothed comb while I'm in the shower instead. the book, Curly Girl by Lorraine Massey offers a huge selection of tips that I found helpful, however more directed to people with corkscrew curls. One thing it recomends is NO SHAMPOO. i know this sound unsantiary, but really just using conditioner does the trick.

Lately I have been working on getting my hair really conditioned and healthy by deep conditioning it once a week. I only shampoo every couple days but condition every day with Suave Humectants Conditioner or Aussie Three Minute Miracle. I then towel dry my hair and apply Headdress Volumizing Leave-In Conditioner. Next, I pull my hair into a quick bun and Voila! I sleep on it and the next morning I have the best curls ever!
