Don't give up the faith. Although your hair may be somewhat frizzy, there are some simple things you can do to revive its healthiness. Be patient and follow the tips below to see results.
Tip #1: Treat your hair to a treat. This will fix your frizzy ends, smooth your strands, soften your hair, and give you stronger hair.
Try giving your hair and scalp a homemade hot oil treatment and protein treatment at least once a week. Here's some great recipes:
Protein Treatment:
Apply 3 tablespoons of mayo, 1 egg, and 1 tablespoon of honey to your hair. Let it sit on your hair for 30 minutes. Rinse with a all-natural shampoo and 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
Hot Oil Treatment:
Warm for 15-30 seconds in the microwave 1/2 cup of olive oil or coconut oil or carrot oil. All 3 are great for cleansing, nourishing, and repairing the hair follicles and strands. Let this sit on your hair for 15-30 mnutes and then follow with a all-natural shampoo wash. Mix all 3 and apply a warm towel to your head for a real treat.
Tip #3: Only use all-natural hair products
Unnatural hair care products are a no-no for someone who wants long-lasting, healthy hair growth. Find a hair growth product that contains essential oils, natural herbs, and vitamin rich nutrients your hair needs to survive. Look for products with ingredients such as: Aloe Vera, Citrus Fruits, Jojoba, Vitamin E, Coconut Oil, Grape Seed, Honey, and Amino Acids, and Ylang Ylang. Although there are several natural hair care products on the market, make sure you read the ingredient list. Most “natural” and drugstore hair products still contain phosphates, sodium lauryl sulfate, petroleum, mineral oil, and other lab created humectants that ultimately damage your hair. Damaged hair equals split hair.
I use GodHead Frizzy-B-Gone and Silky Smooth Conditioner on my clients with dry, damaged, color-treated, or splitting hair. It is a great restorative treatment combo. It makes the ends soft and supple and your hair shiny, healthy, bouncy, and smooth. The base ingredient in both products is Aloe Vera, a hair and skin natural healer, and natural oils, like jojoba, coconut, and grape seed. I see an improvement in the condition of my clients hair after two uses. Maybe you can find them at a salon near you or skip the upcharge and buy them online at wwwdiscoverb4acom.

Yes, that other answer was right, perming is not very good for your hair. It's like straightening your hair everyday: it'll damage your hair unneccessarily. Definitely have the split ends trimmed completely off, even if you have to get your hair a little shorter than you would like.
Use deep conditioning sachets and/or hot oil treatments once a week for the next couple of months until your hair regains its lustre and good condition.
Also use a salon shampoo and conditioner. You mentioned oily gels made your hair look oily, so maybe you are using too much? If you're on a budget I like the frizz-free products Garnier makes (the Fructis range). Good luck, and I hope your hair becomes healthy again :)

I have had the same problem for 35 years! I've never been able to really fix it, but one thing you can to try and restore balance is put about a 1/2 cup of vinegar to about five cups of water and use it as a rinse. Don't worry it WON'T smell once it dries. That might help. Also, the only things I've ever found that really keep the moisture in the ends is keeping them trimmed ($$) and Infusium 23 Leave-In Hair treatment. Start at the ends and work upward. Don't put too much on and do it when your hair is REALLY wet. I pour some on my hands and rub it in the ends first. You can just let it air-dry. If you ever do find anything that works better let me know!

It matters whether or not this is your first perm? I will assume it is. You might just need your ends trimmed! It could easily have been a need before the perm, but more noticable now that the texture has been altered by the perm. Grease is for cars! Get a good moisturizing conditioner for permed hair & trim the ends... you'll be the belle of the ball!

get a good silicone-based frizz control product (John Freda has a good one) and apply after showering (or follow directions. Apply mainly to the ends if that is the problem area, but be careful, some of them are to be used sparingly. I have naturally curly hair which frizzes for any heat and/or moisture in the air. Also, go to a salon and see if they can repair any of the damage before you add more chemicals and make it even worse.

Perms damage hair beyond belief and inside and out it will take a long time to get healthy again. You should try using products with little to NO alcohol in them, and do deep conditioning and hot oil treatments. No gels or nasty hairsprays with tons of alcohol in them.

if you just want curly hair, you should use "denise McAdams" hair serum, or "Nicky Clarke" products. i have real frizzy hair, but because of the products i use it's pretty curly. it goes in ringlets and stuff!
you should wash your hair with these products, and while it's still wet you should brush it. well.
do not use hair dryers because they will just dry your hair out and make it even frizzier!
hope this helps. phants x x x
