What actually is frizzy hair? 

Frizzy hair is puffy hair. Not so attractive looking hair that, for some reason, stays crazy after 2 hours of styling. And humidity could do serious mayhem, we talking WW2 level chaos.

What causes frizz in the first place? 

Genetics. Yes, you heard that right! Simply because of your curly hair inheritance that causes the “unruly” hair structure! There are two ways to go about it - keratin treatment or embrace your curls! We mean drying, combing & styling techniques. Second factor, damage. When our hair is dehydrated, it means out cuticles are open and moisture is constantly escaping. Keeping our hair brittle, coarse & fragile! Heat styling tools, bleaching and harsh shampoos are common culprits that SHOULD make our hair look glamorous but, in return, brings ultimate horror to our precious tresses. However, it’s not the end of the road although we do have A LOT to pick up on!
