I have curly frizzy hair, how do i manage?

- Read the book and visit the sites below about curly hair. I did and my once horrible curly hair is now virtually frizz-free ringlets. Now I get compliments on my hair all the time! Straighten your hair- be happy for a day, learn to manage your curly hair- be happy for life!

- To style your hair using the curly-girl method you will need gel, a leave in cream, and conditioner at the minimum. Some less useful, but still nice stuff would be a blowdryer, a diffuser (reduces frizz in curly/wavy hair when used with dryer), and a microfiber hair turban (to dry wet hair while sleeping or in the morning).

-The main philosophy of the curly-girl method is to not use shampoo. This may sound unhygenic but it has actually made my hair less oily and dandruffy. Most shampoos contain some of the same chemicals found in laundry detergent (aka sodium laureth sulfate or anything close to that). They dry out curly hair. Also you shouldn't brush your curly hair dry because it damages the hair and makes it poof.

- Massaging of the scalp with conditioner to remove dirt is all that is needed. It will clean everything but super clingy silicones (cyclopentasiloxane and dimethicone are examples). Then rinse and spread conditioner on the outside layer of hair and the hair at the nape of your neck. Gently comb tangles out with your fingers or a wide toothed comb and rinse with cold/cool water.

- Do not brush/comb your hair after this point because it wil disturb the curl pattern (make sure you already have a part). It is also important to use gel on sopping wet hair and scrunch the hair with your fingers. Make sure gel is evenly distributed everywhere in your hair. If you use too much you can always scrunch out the crunchy texture later.

- Use paper towels or an old t-shirt to gently scrunch some of the water out (generic towels can make hair frizz). You can either let your hair air dry or wait ten minutes and then use a blowdryer with a diffuser. Dry until your hair is almost dry, and then let air dry the last bit. Do not touch the hair while it is air drying or it will frizz!

- Use a moisturizing conditioner, such as Desert Essence Organics Italian Red Grape Conditioner (found at health food/organic stores) or Activate Hydrating Conditioner (drugstore). The combo of products that I use daily is L'Oreal Out of Bed Weightless Texturizer (comes in a black-colored tub) and then Herbal Essences Totally Twisted Gel or Body Envy Gel, but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the websites. The products I recommended are my personal favorites and contain no silicones.

- Your hair may seem worse at first, but it is just adjusting. This may take a couple weeks to begin working. Before you decide to quit shampoo, do a final cleanse with shampoo and stop the use of any products with silicones in them. Hope this helps!

Sunsilk has shampoo and conditioner for curly/frizzy hair. The 24/7 creme is the BEST. I use the green bottle of Sunsilk 24/7 creme for DeFrizz...and its great...you can put it on damp hair, and dry hair.

Frizz ease might help...I didnt care for it though.

Good luck!

get the book called curly girl..it is great. I have the same kind of hair except mine is shoulder lenght. dont wash it everyday..maybe every three days. put gel in it and then let it air dry. do not blow dry or brush it. if u want it straight with no frizz u need a good flat iron. I dont suggest a lot of flat iroining bc it will damage your hair. if u have curly hair then u need to learn to love your curls and only straighten it sometimes. good luck!

I have thick curly hair and I find that John Frieda Frizz Ease products work the best for me!!! I use their shampoo, conditioner, leave in conditioner, and finishing balm. It looks great and my hair doesn't get damaged from it...if anything, my hair has gotten sooooo soft since I've been using it!

The wonderful think about it, is that they make their products geared towards curly haired women who want straight hair, like me AND curly haired women who wanna have the curls, like you!

It's really amazing and I'm sure you'll love it!

Good Luck! :o)
