Is your hair bouncy and unruly? Are you looking for a way to achieve silky smooth and silky hair? No need to worry anymore. While everyone's hair type is different, and whether your hair is naturally bouncy or bouncy from using dyes or decolorizers, there are many products and hair care products that can help you tame frizz and smooth your hair.
Step
Part 1 of 3: Cleanses and Moisturizes Hair
Step 1. Reduce the frequency of shampooing as much as possible
The scalp produces natural oils that can deeply moisturize the hair. Unfortunately, when you wash your hair, these natural oils are removed and, as a result, your hair becomes dry. Instead of shampooing every day, try to only rinse your hair and shampoo every 3-5 days.
If your hair looks greasy between washes, use a dry shampoo to absorb the oil and restore texture
Step 2. Use shampoo and conditioner formulated for dry hair
Choose a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner that can help smooth and smooth the look of your hair. Read the label on the product packaging and choose one that lists a specific "moisturizing" or "smoothing" benefit. Avoid using products that can make your hair dry and frizzy.
- Avoid products that claim to increase hair volume because they will make your hair more frizzy.
- Use conditioner from the middle of the hair shaft to the ends. After that, leave it on for at least 2 minutes before rinsing it off.
Step 3. Use cold water to rinse hair
Cold water can lock the hair cuticles. That way, the moisture of the hair will not be easily lost and as a result, the hair will look neater and shiny. It's okay to take a warm (not hot) shower, but rinse shampoo and conditioner out of your hair with cold or cool water.
Part 2 of 3: Blow Drying Hair
Step 1. Carefully remove the water from the hair
Avoid using terry cloth towels to dry your hair. These towels have lint that can mess with the cuticles of your hair, causing them to tangle. Instead, use a T-shirt or microfiber towel to gently remove the water from your hair. Remember, don't squeeze or rub your hair too hard.
Step 2. Gently untangle the tangled hair
If you have curly hair, it's a good idea to start combing after using conditioner in the shower. However, you can brush after your shower if your hair is straight. Whatever the condition of your hair, use a wide-toothed comb to untangle your hair starting at the ends and then working your way up to the roots.
Avoid combing your hair while it's wet as it can break it
Step 3. Let the hair dry by itself
It's best not to use a hairdryer and let your hair dry on its own, especially if your hair is curly. Use a moisturizing product, such as a cream, serum, or hair oil and then style your curls the way you want. If your hair is straight, simply rub in a smoothing product and then allow it to dry on its own.
If you want to blow dry your hair, be sure to use a heat protectant first. After that, use an ionized ceramic hairdryer to help deal with frizz. Or, use a blow dryer to allow the exhaled air to flow through the hair shaft
Part 3 of 3: Minimizing the Look of Growing Hair
Step 1. Maximize the natural shape of the hair
With so many hair styling products available, there are a variety of options that can be used to enhance the look of naturally curly hair while preventing frizz.
- Hairdressing products such as gels, mousses, and creams that can define curly hair patterns contain ingredients called polymers. This material can coat the hair and lock the pattern of curly or wavy hair to make it last longer.
- If your hair is thin and wavy, mousse is the best option because it won't make your hair limp. However, if your hair is coarse and frizzy, it's best to use a gel or cream instead.
Step 2. Use alcohol-free products
Most hairsprays and mousses contain high levels of alcohol. In fact, this alcohol content can make the hair cuticles enlarge. In addition, alcohol can also dry out your hair, making it look bouncy and eventually break. Therefore, try using alcohol-free products to reduce frizz, such as creams and serums.
Step 3. Use a sea urchin comb
If your hair is dye-damaged, or if it's naturally dry, a sea urchin comb can help reduce frizz. This comb can help collect the natural oils in the scalp and then distribute it throughout the hair.
Step 4. Style unruly hair with curling irons
This may sound ridiculous, but styling your hair with curling irons can actually help lock in position and smooth it out. Just make sure to dry your hair thoroughly first, and only use this tool occasionally. Set the curling iron to the lowest temperature and don't stick it to the hair shaft for too long.
Hot temperatures risk damaging the hair. So, make sure to always use a heat protectant product first
Step 5. Do a hot oil treatment once a week
Hot oil treatments are great for moisturizing and strengthening hair. This treatment is great for all hair types. So, try it with your friends. Opt for jojoba oil to help strengthen cuticles and prevent frizz. Simply warm the oil and then massage it into your hair and scalp.
- If you want, put on a shower cap to cover your hair and then let the oil soak in for 30 minutes before rinsing off.
- Use a blow dryer as a heater to help the oil seep further into the hair shaft.
Tips
- Trim as much of the damaged hair as possible and trim the ends regularly to prevent split ends.
- Spray a small amount of shine into a wide comb and then use it to smooth out unruly hair.
- Use a toothbrush to apply hairspray to unruly hair for a neater look. Simply spray hairspray onto the bristles of the toothbrush and then rub it into the hair.
- Try putting your hair up in a bun to protect it from the humidity of the air during the humid weather during your trip, then twirling your hair back when you get to your destination.
