WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE
Hydrating with the right products helps soothe and smooth stressed out hair. You’ll
need a good moisturising shampoo and conditioner, followed by styling products
specifically designed for taming wayward waves.
Stay clear of products with too much alcohol, as they will frizzle locks fast.
Instead, use a hydrating conditioner with keratin, protein and/or natural oils.
Natural oils are better than synthetic varieties because they are absorbed by the hair.
Protein-infused conditioners will manage frizz and create shine. Synthetic silicone
moisturisers, however, can lie on top of the hair, making it look dull or dirty.
LESS IS MORE
Resist the urge to overcompensate. Don’t overwash
frizzy hair – if you have product build-up
from nourishing shampoos and conditioners and/or
styling products, the first step is to remove it with
a clarifying shampoo. Excessive shampooing can
strip hair of its natural oils, which are great frizz
fighters. Lather frizzy hair three times a week tops.
For between-washing days, use a dry shampoo to
help keep oil at bay. You can also skip the shampoo
and just apply conditioner.
It’s not just us girls who suffer – men’s hair also
needs special attention in humid conditions.
Special shampoos for men are recommended as
guys tend to consider a ‘hair wash’ part of their
daily routine!
