Frizzy Hair – Preventive Measures
April 13, 2009
Tightly curled hair is often prone to frizzy hair. Many women, especially those who have curly hair face this problem. Frizzy hair is caused by a dehydrated cortex, the layer inside of the hair shaft.
Dehydration may be the result of various activities, including but not limited to frequent perming, excessive usage of styling products, regular use of bleach or hair dyes, a poor diet, brushing the hair when wet, and excessive exposure to the sun.
No matter the cause, frizzy hair generally spoils an individual’s appearance. By following some simple preventative measures and employing various home remedies you can avoid and control frizzy hair.
Preventing frizzy hair:
Always look for hair care products such as moisturizing conditioners and shampoos that are appropriate for your hair type. After applying a creamy conditioner to your hair for a few minutes, rinse with cold water.
The cold water locks the hair cuticle and makes hair appear less frizzy. Try to re-hydrate the hair with the use of a leave-in conditioner, which also helps to control frizziness.
Avoid oil-based conditioners. For hair conditioning and nourishment, apply a hair mask 1 – 2 times in a week, leaving it on for 10 – 15 minutes and rinse thoroughly once completed.
Treat your hair with a deep conditioner to help hydrate and repair your hair. Use a blow dryer only once or twice a week. Avoid running it up and down your hair. If possible, use an Ionic blow dryer.
Though a silicone based product can be used to style your hair, excessive usage should be avoided. Use a comb with wide teeth instead of a brush to comb you hair to avoid split ends. Wet hair should not be rubbed dry with a towel; instead allow your hair to dry naturally.
Buy hair care products that contain moisturizing agents such as honey, glycerin, aloe vera, olive oil, vitamin E, chamomile, and panthenol. De-frizz or anti-frizz products such as creams, gels and serums can be applied to specific areas of your hair to help with your hairstyle. Try to avoid touching your hair constantly.
