Let’s Talk More About Frizzy Hair 

Frizzy hair is a messy and uneven texture that results when hair strands curl up sporadically in multiple directions. The tresses stick out and fail to align with the main body of your hair. 

Frizzy hair is the epitome of a bad hair day as it has irregular and fuzzy textures that won’t blend in. 

Frizzy hair results when the cuticle layer on your hair strands dry out, open, and become raised. Hair cuticles are made up of tiny shingles that form a smooth layer to protect the hair from the elements. When observed under a microscope, a healthy cuticle resembles fish scales – they’re smooth and lay low. 

When hair strands become dry and damaged, the shingles open and are raised. 

When the hair shaft is open, moisture from the air penetrates the hair and causes it to swell and change its shape, i.e., become frizzy. 

What Causes Frizzy Hair?

Dryness is the primary culprit behind frizzy hair. However, many other factors can cause your hair to dry out and worse the frizz, including:

• Humidity: Hot and humid summers are synonymous with frizzy hair. That’s because dry hair strands soak the water moisture from the air and become swollen. 
• Washing hair in hot water: Hot water has the same effect as high humidity and strips beneficial oils from your scalp, stressing your scalp and hair. 
• Harsh hair chemicals: Some hair products contain chemicals that strip the natural oils that keep your hair smooth and supple. Bleaching and coloring may damage the surface of your hair strands, leaving them rough and lackluster. 
• Heat styles: Hot tools may give you a sizzling fashionable look but could potentially damage your hair. Avoid using a curling iron daily, and always apply a heat protectant before styling your hair. 
• Excessive washing: Washing your hair daily with a foamy shampoo can break its natural balance. It also strips away the essential oils that keep it healthy and strong. 
• Towel-drying: Rubbing your hair dry with a towel can ruffle the cuticle and cause irksome frizz.  

Expert Recommendations on How to Brush Out Curls to Prevent Frizz

How to curl your hair:

Before using a curling iron or other hot tool, protect your hair from the heat by applying a heat protectant. The best leave-in conditioner doubles as a heat protectant and detangles hair.

After applying the product, start by clipping the top layers and work your way to the top from the bottom layers of hair. 

Start curling your hair with a traditional curling method or wand method.

Once your hair is fully curled, spray a bit of hairspray, making sure to hold it away from your head at a far enough distance to create an even mist and avoid crunching.

How to brush out curls with Spornette:

After you’ve finished curling your hair and using hairspray to lock in the curl pattern, let your curls fully cool to “set” them. If you want your curls to stay even longer, consider using the pin curl method.

Once your curls are fully cooled, grab a nylon bristle brush from Spornette. In small sections, start brushing from the ends of your hair to the top to brush out your curls. It will create soft waves and will help to avoid that tight curl, 90’s-style ringlets kind of look.

Be gentle as you brush. Once the hair is completely tangle-free, run a nourishing hair oil or shine serum through your hair. These products help minimize frizz and static and make sure your hair is shiny.
