Why is my hair so frizzy?

Frizz

It’s something many of us battle with, and it can feel like no matter what you do, smooth, sleek hair is just out of reach. If you’ve been wondering why your hair is so frizzy, you’re not alone! There are several factors that contribute to frizz, but they generally fall into three main categories:

⚡︎ Your hair’s natural texture

The condition of your hair

💧 Humidity

Let’s break these down and offer some tips for keeping your hair frizz-free.

1. Natural Hair Type or Texture

The first thing to consider is your natural hair type or texture. Curly and wavy hair tends to be more prone to frizz because the twists and turns in the hair strand make it harder for natural oils to travel from the scalp to the ends. This results in drier, more fragile hair that’s more likely to frizz.

Additionally, some people have naturally coarse or porous hair, which means it absorbs moisture from the air more easily, leading to frizz. If this sounds like your hair, understanding and embracing your hair’s natural texture is the first step in managing frizz. The right styling products and techniques can help lock in moisture and define your natural waves or curls.

2. The Condition of Your Hair

Your hair’s health plays a huge role in how frizzy it is. Damaged hair (whether from heat styling, colouring, or over-washing) loses its natural moisture and protective oils, which makes it more susceptible to frizz. Split ends and rough cuticles cause hair strands to lift, letting in humidity and causing a frizzy appearance.

To combat this, focus on deep conditioning treatments, avoiding excessive heat, and trimming your hair regularly to keep it in good condition. Hair masks, oils, and gentle handling will help restore moisture and smoothness to your locks.

3. Humidity

Humidity is a major culprit when it comes to frizzy hair. When the air is humid, the moisture in the air causes the hair’s cuticle to swell, making it look puffy and unruly. This is especially true for those with porous or damaged hair, as it absorbs moisture more easily.
