Frizzy hair issues

[happilyahousewife]

What is the best thing to stop frizzy hair? Tried all the lotions & potions out there but they don't seem to stop the hairs on the top of my head going mad even & doing their own thing.
Also, best way to get heathy shiny hair on frizzy/wave hair?

Yes woo I guess I'm worried that it'll look greasy if I don't rinse it properly. How long do you rinse for?

From what I have read you really need to scrub your scalp with the conditioner for the co wash as that it was agitates the dirt .

I finally tracked down some 'yes to carrots' yesterday in boots and was most excited! And my cantu curl activator arrived this morning from amazon . I'll report back on how that goes . Slightly concerned as I'm a huge fan of boots curl creme and it works so well for me .

Ha ha ha LOL@ prime minister

Looks great!

So I decided to cowash from now on. Usual regime is:
Kind Natured shampoo and conditioner (I think this is good stuff? Strated using it when I couldn't get Naked stuff any more), followed by Aunt Jackie's leave in conditioner and the Boots Curl Creme on sopping wet hair, combed through with fingers (found this made a huge difference once I stopped using a comb). On Saturday I did this except I used the Cantu curl activator (love the smel) instead of curl creme, and I had lovely soft curls. By yesterday in the drizzle it was a mass of frizz.
Today: 2 washes with baby shampoo followed by one with tesco coconut conditioner & then my usual Kind Natured conditioner, patted worst of the wetness off with a t shirt, then a small blob of Aunt Jackie's as I decided I has rinsed out all the conditioner, then a tablespoon-ish of tesco blue gel. Now it is dry there is no crunch and it is rather fluffy! Presumaby I didn't use enough gel? I have chin length hair, but very thick. I have scrunched in some Cantu stuff and that has helped a little. Any thoughts, experts?

I got a recommendation for mixed chicks. Picked up the curl redefiner foam last week and had so many positive comments on my hair since! It's about £11 in boots

Barks here, changed my name!

Took this just now .. co-washed my hair this afternoon, rinsed less, used different gel ... I'm quite happy with it. It's not as sticky either.

Woo looks great!

Yes I airdry my hair .. takes half a day too. Last time I used the gel from Trepadora .. it was expensive though but smells nice and feels soft. I've now bought the tesco cheap one to try too.

I've recently ditched the shampoo in favour of scrubbing my scalp with conditioner and can already see the difference! What really helps is a diffuser - if Ieft to airdry my hair just goes flat, but a diffuser gives it so much more body.

Woowoowoo yours looks great. mine is a frizz ball today. your hair is much finer than mine, but longer. I will try one and a half tablespoons of gel tomorrow. I don't have any problem with my hair in day 1 really, unless it's drizzling, but day 2 it's always more fluffy. I presume drizzle and mist will always make hair like mine frizz though.

Woo hair is looking good

I'm on day 4 now and mixed results .

So I washed with the Tesco pro v then followed up with yes to carrots and left some in . I then fiddled about with plopping but not convinced that did anything other than make the top flatter ? Then I put the cantu curl activator which smells lovely . Initially it looked great and was impressed with the cantu stuff compared to my usual curl creme , but today it feels frizzy ????

I've benn looking at those you tube videos about squish to condish . Does anyone do this ?

I keep looking at FB at all the amazing curls and hope mine can look the same . If I'm felling brsve I'll put a pic on here after the next wash

Great shampoos

Today I had to shampoo my hair. It felt so grotty and I've had to tie it up for the last two days as it was huge, talking different postcode here. .
I'm using the tresemme undone condioner and I like it but after four days of co washing my hair was disgusting. I'm going to try again but I think it will need to be shampooed every few days. It is more curly and less fluffy which is a plus but felt grim

That's quite an improvement over all the washes OP! Only thing is I'd recommend using a diffuser to give your hair more of a lift at the roots and avoid the flat on top pyramid hair effect.

I tried this method without success in the past and then discovered that the key is scrubbing your scalp with conditioner to clean it. Then rinse, blot with a towel and apply conditioner through the length. I use the 85p Boots own brand for the first step and Yes to Blueberries for the second.

I had curly hair and after 5 chilfryit has become straighter and much thinner. I tried using kinky curry curling custard and loads of other products...costing ££££ but I ended up get it cut up to a pixie last year. I wanted to embrace the curls but they ended up straggly and flat 😢😢😢
