Curly hair care when it's cropped?

Dd1 is growing out a pixie crop. Her hair is grow back wavy/curly and she's struggling with frizz. I have suggested the no shampoo method but she's paranoid and it being greasy and doesn't want to do this. I have been looking at jersey hair towels. She's using Pantene curl creme which seems ok....
I know mn will have better advice x

Hershesons everything cream. Tiny bit worked though wet hair keeps the curl but no frizz.

Have a look at Only Curls products. I swear by them. They're more expensive but last ages and work wonders.

As someone who HATED her frizzy curly hair growing up, I now at 39 embrace my hair. I'm not in a position to pay for expensive (Wow, only curls etc) products but for "high Street" products my routine is Elvive full restore shampoo and conditioner (helps with my frizz) then John Frieda curl mouse, blow dry with diffuser scrunch with a little more mouse and then some vo5 coconut hair spray. It won't give exactly the same results as the stupidly expensive stuff but for less than half the price it's a win for me.

Agreed! My hair is sooo frizzy! Only Curls tames it very well!

Dd, ds, me and dh all have curly hair. I've tried all sorts of curl products over the years.

The best ones I've ever used are umberto gianni. Pink questionable shaped bottle but the best products on the market for curly hair.

We've used cantu, only curls, cantu kids, renken, John Freida (that stuff is really sticky and I hated it)

The only umberto gianni product I didn't like was the intense moisture conditioner. The rest of the range is excellent.

Another vote for Umberto Gianni - I have curly, wavy hair and find it the best product for frizz.
