diffuser for wavy hair

I have wavy hair that frizzes like mad but when styled right it cab look gorgeous.
I can't be bothered putting twenty different products in everyday. I bought a babyliss dry and curl with diffuser and although it did make my hair slightly curlier it still looked frizzy.
any recommendations for good diffusers? from budget to expensive I'm not bothered as long as it works.

I am really pleased with my dyson and diffuser, but its £££.
The latest way to dry wavy hair seems to be in a sieve! Sounds weird but apparently works really well, I haven't tried it.

I'll Google the sieve thing in intrigued. I'll try anything that works

Get a Dyson hairdryer. It comes with a diffuser. Since I received mine I've gone back to my natural curly hair - no frizz. It is truly amazing!

A new diffuser won't help , you need products . The hairdryers all do the same thing but your hair won't curl without styling.
You won't however need 20 products just one . I have curly hair and put a curl creme in it when it's soaking wet before I towel dry it and then diffuse . Easy peasy

At the other end of the price spectrum(it’s about £20), I have the Remington D5215 and love it. The diffuser that comes with it works really well on fine, flyaway hair. No frizz.

Second the good curl creme comment too.

I would also suggest a product for curly hair. Brush your hair before you wash it, after washing wrap your hair in a turban till its nearly dry, no rough towel drying as that will make it frizzy... comb your hair with a wide tooth comb, use your product then diffuse sections of your hair at a time. Depending on how fit you are you could dry your hair upside down.
If I'm honest I never 100% dry my hair i then flip my head upside down and shake my head to let the curls settle... this seems to work for me

Try the curly girl method, it works for wavy hair as well as curly. It helps you choose the right products to fight frizz & boost your curl. The gama diffuser is great, super big bowl & is only £12ish from Amazon.

I've got a John Frieda frizz ease hairdryer & diffuser, it was about £25, very good.

I use umberto gianni curl jelly to scrunch my hair with.
