Frizzy Thin curly hair!!!!!!!!!!!!?

I have very thin curly hair and it frizzes so much if i dont put something i it.



I know that mousse and gel and all that stuff is worse for frizzy curly hair but thats the oonly thing i do to keep it in control.



i blow dry it evry day n i know thats bad for my hair too

Ive tried air drying my hair but then it looks like i have 4 strands of hair :(



Ive tried leave in conditioner with air drying or blowdrying, but it still gets frizzy and looks limp



i dunno what to do anymore :( help me out



Frizzy Thin curly hair!!!!!!!!!!!!?

*If you carefully consider which mousses or gels you buy for your hair they will not be damaging. It is normal to lose 100 hairs a day, and as they don't fall out of curly it has to be removed when brushing/combing. Try taking hair supplements with your meals (such as Biotin) if this continues to be an issue or talk to a professional. Use a diffuser when you blowdry to lessen the heat somewhat.



*Read the book and visit the sites below about curly hair. I did and my once horrible curly hair is now well defined and healthy. Now I get compliments on my hair all the time! Straighten your hair- be happy for a day, learn to manage your curly hair- be happy for life! But if this is completely uninteresting to you, disregard.



*To style your hair using the curly-girl method you will need gel, a leave in, and conditioner at the minimum. Some less useful, but still nice stuff would be a blow dryer, a diffuser (reduces frizz in curly/wavy hair when used with dryer), and a micro fiber hair turban/old t-shirts (to dry wet hair while sleeping or in the morning).



*The main philosophy of the curly-girl method is to not use shampoo. This may sound unhygienic but it has actually made my hair less oily and dandruffy. Most shampoos contain some of the same chemicals found in laundry detergent (aka sulfates). They dry out curly hair. Also you shouldn't brush your curly hair dry because it damages the hair and makes it poof.



*Massaging of the scalp with conditioner to remove dirt is all that is needed. It will clean everything but super clingy silicones (avoid these- ingredients will end in -xane, -conol, or -cone). Then rinse and spread conditioner on the outside layer of hair and the hair at the nape of your neck. Gently comb tangles out with your fingers or a wide toothed comb and rinse with cold/cool water.



*Do not brush/comb your hair after this point because it will disturb the curl pattern (make sure you already have a part preferably to one side). It is also important to use gel on sopping wet hair and scrunch the hair with your fingers. Make sure gel is evenly distributed everywhere in your hair. If you use too much you can always scrunch out the crunchy texture later.



*Use paper towels or an old t-shirt to gently scrunch some of the water out (generic towels can make hair frizz). You can either let your hair air dry or wait ten minutes and then use a blowdryer with a diffuser. Dry until your hair is almost dry, and then air-dry the last bit. Do not touch the hair while it is air-drying or it will frizz!



*Use a cheap, silicone free conditioner to scrub your scalp such as Suave Naturals or Vo5. Use a moisturizing conditioner, such as Kenra Moisturizing Conditioner (Ulta), for your hair. Cheaper suggestions are Nature's Gate or Desert Essences conditioners (health food stores). I recommend using a gel (LA Looks, Herbal Essences, La Bella) over a leave in (L閳ユ┉real Out of Bed Instant Texturizer). Experiment with whatever products you wish, but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the websites.



*You may be able to get away with some silicones (such as amodimethicone) if you clarify with a sulfate free shampoo. Try Devacurl no-poo (salon) or Cream of Nature (drug store). Feel free to find your own but always check the ingredients for sodium/ammonium lauryl/laureth sulfate.



*Your hair may seem worse at first, but it is just adjusting. This takes 2 to 4 weeks begin working. Before you decide to quit shampoo, do a final cleanse with shampoo and stop the use of any products with silicones in them. This is hard to do if you don't read the book, or at least visit the websites. Naturally curly hair can be beautiful! I hope you consider this- email me if you have any questions!

I have straight hair but I heard that a product called Mixed Chicks works wonders on frizzy hair. I would also suggest using a line of hair products by Mizani(not sure of spelling).



They are awesome for textured hair.

first of all, if you know that blow drying your hair is bad for you, don't do it. in fact, whenever i take a shower, i just put a small towel on my pillow and go to sleep.



i recommend Garner fructis (sleek and shine) and sunsilk- shampoo, conditioner, and 24/ 7 creme (DE-frizz)



for the sunsilk hair products, use the shampoo and conditioner. then, work the creme through a towel-dried hair (about nickel-size for medium length), concentrating on areas that need the most hairapy.don't rinse. Use your normal styling products and style as usual. If needed, use a little creme for touch-ups during the day.



if you go to http://www.garnierusa.com/_en/_us/progra... then, you can know which garnier fructis products you should use



hoped i could hel!!! :D

I have the exact same problem! But I wear my hair straight instead. I put a straightening cream on before I blow dry it. I use a diffuser on my blow dryer, and I also do it on low heat and medium strength. I let it sit for a little bit then straighten it. But I separate it into groups when I straighten it and spray a heat protecting spray and let it dry before I use the flat iron. (It usually dries withing 10-15secs.) Another thing I do is when I wash and condition it, I let the conditioner sit for about 30-45secs. Also when you dry it with a towel just scrunch it, don't rub it or rub it back and forth between your towel. Hope this helps! My hair is always nice and shiney, so good luck!
