I have really curly hair and i love it but i wake up in the morning and its really dry frizzy and knotted. When i comb it it gets even more frizzed and puffy. any suggestions that wont cost alot of money. Preferably natural remedies

Answer 1

I have frizz because I have wavy hair.I 've tried expencive products and they only work for awhile.There's this new line with eveything for frizz.It's called Sunsilk De-Frizz.It really works for me and it's only about $3.00 It really works and you'll notice right away.

Answer 2

My hair is exactly the same. What I found that works is: Not shampooing everyday. I shampoo every other day or other other day. : D Wet it and condition it every morning (I rinse out). Comb out tangles and let it air dry. I scrunch it with my fingers as it dries. If I do wind up using a hair dryer I use a diffuser on it and only enough so it's not dry, but still damp. I get more compliments now than I ever did on my curls. I also started using a product from the "ethnic" isle in the store - it's called Cholesterol. I have no idea if it is all natural, but it is very inexpensive. The kind I use has Aloe. It smells good too.
After my initial comb out for tangles - I never touch it again with a brush or comb. I only use my fingers.
Good luck!

Use a good moisturizing and/or hydrating shampoo and conditioner - Redken and Biolage make some good ones. Focus the application of the shampoo more towards your roots and the conditioner more towards your ends. While you're conditioning, use a wide-toothed comb to detangle and comb through your hair (never brush curly hair, and don't even think about combing or brushing while dry). Use a deep conditioner once a week - when you use a deep conditioner, leave it in for a good 10 minutes regardless of what the directions say. Once a month, apply a tablespoon of olive oil to your hair and sleep with it overnight - then shampoo and condition in the morning. To keep from damaging your pillowcases, wear a plastic hair cap and/or cover your pillow with an old towel. After you're out of the shower, manually wring out the excess water out of your hair (do not use a towel to do this!) put your hair up in a towel turban for about 5 minutes. Don't blot or rub. After 5 minutes the water will be gone without creating frizz or friction in your hair. Mix Moroccan Oil treatment with Frizz-Ease extra strength serum - a 1:1 ratio. Wait about 15 minutes before you use the Moroccan Oil Intense Curl Cream to scrunch (this is the best scrunching product I have ever used in my life).

I have curly hair too. What works for me is usually before I go to bed, I twist a whole bunch of sections separately into zolo knots. I spray my hair with a bit of water, put a little leave in conditioner and twist each section. In the morning, I take it out and all the curls stay nice and not frizzy. Don't comb curly hair. Just use your fingers and twist.

Answer 5

The absolute best is a product called Curls Up from FX Special Effects. Its an awesome defrizzant! Its inexpensive, and you can get it at any Wal-Mart, CVS, Walgreens, etc. You'll love it!

Answer 6

comb with a big toothed comb after using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.

Answer 7

Do not comb it! Put Moisturizing Conditioner on it. How do I know? That's why they call me, "Rug".

Answer 8

as crazy as it sounds, my cousin puts lotion in her hair when she has the frizzies. not a lot, just rub it on your hands and run you fingers through your hair. it definitly helps static.
