Ah, the eternal battle against frizz. We've all been there - waking up to a head of hair that seems to have a mind of its own, defying all attempts at control. It’s not surprising that anti-frizz hacks are growing on TikTok and the #frizzyhair hashtag has over 1 billion views! Keep reading as we're going to delve deep into the root causes of frizz and give you the tricks, tips and tools you need to banish it for good.

Before we can tackle frizz, it's essential to understand what causes it in the first place. Frizz occurs when the outer layer of your hair, known as the cuticle, becomes raised and allows moisture to penetrate the hair shaft. This can happen for a variety of reasons:  

The Weather 

As temperatures rises, so does the chance of frizz. Humidity, which is the amount of moisture in the air, is a major cause of frizz. When it’s humid water molecules are absorbed by your hair and disrupt the hair's hydrogen bonds, which are responsible for maintaining its structure.  Discover humidity proof haircare heroes to keep your hair in place, whatever the weather.

In winter, the lack of moisture in the air can also react with dry hair to become static. Think of it as a magnet effect –it charges your hair with electrons, so the strands repel each other.

Damage 

Chemical treatments, heat styling, and environmental factors can all damage the hair cuticle. Damaged hair is desperate for moisture and will try and find it wherever it can, this means your hair will start to try and absorb moisture from the air leaving it looking frizzy. 

Hard Water 

The chemicals and deposits from hard water can break down the nutrients in our hair and strip it of its natural oils, leaving it feeling dryer and looking duller and frizzier. Try Frizz Fix™ Shampoo with Metal Detox Technology to remove dulling metals and minerals found in everyday shower water that build up on your hair.  Learn more about the effects and how hard your water is with our hard water map.

Genetics 

Some people are simply more prone to frizz due to their natural hair texture and structure.

Limit Heat Styling 

Excessive heat styling can damage the hair cuticle, leading to frizz. If you have to use heat tools, use them on the lowest setting and always use a heat protectant to reduce damage to your hair. 

Avoid Over-washing 

Washing your hair too frequently can strip it of its natural oils, leading to dryness and frizz. Aim to wash your hair no more than a few times a week, and use a gentle, sulphate-free shampoo.  

Seal in Moisture 

After washing and conditioning your hair, seal in moisture by applying a lightweight hair oil or serum such as The Frizz Oil™ or Blow Out Frizz Styling Cream. This will help smooth the hair cuticle and keep frizz at bay and protect against any heat induced harm.
