Michelle Breyer says:
The key to defined curls without the
crunch is product selection and application.
Pick a styling cream such as Paul Mitchell
Express Style Fast Form ($17.50) and disperse
it into damp hair in sections, making sure to
put a little more on the ends than at the roots.
Don’t forget the underside of your curls—
if they’re not coated in product, your risk
of puffiness and frizz is greater. After you’ve
applied product, air-dry your tresses or use a
blow dryer with a diffuser nozzle. If you still
have a bit of crunch, rub a pea-size dab of John
Frieda Frizz-Ease Secret Weapon Flawless
Finishing Crème ($5.99) between your hands
and run them through your hair from roots to
ends to break up the crinkly texture.
Curly and kinky hair types love natural
butters and oils like shea butter, jojoba, avocado,
coconut milk, aloe vera, and honey because
they instantly boost moisture. In addition,
mixing the right products can be a great
way to reduce frizz. Combining a
moisturizing leave-in conditioner
like SheaMoisture Coconut &
Hibiscus Curl & Style Milk
($9.99) with a defining
mousse like Herbal Essences
Totally Twisted Curl Boosting
Mousse ($2.99) can foil frizz
all day long.
