Hello Naturalistas!
Have you ever struggled with taming frizzy hair? If you have, then you’ve come to the right place! We definitely relate with the struggle, so in this post, we are tackling the common issue known as 'Frizz'. We all deal with it, but with proper care, we can all tame it. Sometimes, we have gotten to the middle of the week and are too tired to care about maintaining our hair, so we just let it frizz. Other times, we've been on top of our routine, but find our hair frizzing up when we step outside. We are tired of it as you are too, so we're here to help!
Before we get into what can make your hair frizzy, it's important to define what frizz is. Frizz occurs due to lack of moisture in your hair, which makes your hair seek moisture from the environment. This is why it's important to familiarize yourself with the humidity level where you live. In addition to this, there are other factors that cause your hair to frizz, which we explain in this post. Keep reading to find out some of the reasons why your hair is frizzing and how to combat them. Also, read our guide on how humidity could cause your hair to frizz.
1. Your Wash Day Products Could Be Causing Frizz.
A main cause of frizz could be your shampoo and conditioner. If your shampoo and conditioner contain sulfates, they should be in the trash right about now! Products with sulfates dry out and strip your hair of all its moisture and nutrients, causing your hair to become dry and frizzy. If you're not sure how to tell if your products have sulfates or other toxic ingredients, check out this guide on ingredients to avoid in hair products.
If you need to get rid of your shampoo and conditioner, you'll also need to look for alternatives. We recommend NaturAll products, which do not contain any sulfates, preservatives, or toxic chemicals! NaturAll's Shampoo and Conditioner strip away dirt and product buildup only, keeping your mane healthy, moisturized, and frizz-free.
2. Regular Deep Conditioning Can Help Prevent Frizz.
Another reason why your hair is frizzing is because you are not deep conditioning it regularly, if at all. Deep conditioning your hair is very essential in your hair care routine, especially in the winter time when your hair can get extremely dry. A deep conditioner is great for moisturizing and nourishing your hair. In particular, NaturAll's Fresh Frozé Treatment Deep Conditioners have high moisturizing properties that will enhance your curl definition and reduce frizz!
3. Some Fabrics Can Cause Frizz
One last thing … what are you using to dry your hair? If you are using a cotton towel, it can go right in the trash with your sulfate-filled shampoo. Cotton towels are known to create frizz when you rub your hair against the towel. To avoid that, use a microfiber towel or t-shirt to dry your hair, as they are gentle on the hair and help clump your curls.
There you have it, the different things you can do to prevent frizz! These are our top three recommendations for you to start incorporating now.
