A good deep condition should solve the frizzy issue.

Some tips :) 1. Don't towel dry or blow dry you're hair just wrap it in a towel for 5 minutes. 2.Get a leave in conditioner for curly hair , it's amazing how much frizz they take away 3. Get a good shampoo for curly hair, using shampoo for just any hair type won't help you're curls and only brush you're hair right before you wash it, brushing causes a lot of frizz, and once a week I deep condition my hair with coconut cream for an hour then wash it out, this helps to moisturise you're hair. :)

Find a sulfate-free shampoo. Curly hair is usually drier than other hair types, and sulfates will just dry it out even more and make it less manageable. Also try using a mashed up avocado as a hair mask. Sounds weird but it really helps to soften your hair!

I highly suggest the curly girl method. Check out www.naturallycurly.comthey have so much information! The curly girl method basically says no sulfate shampoos, either wash your hair with conditioner or use a shampoo with no sulfate, do not brush your hair, use cold water rinses after washing, use scrunchies instead of tight elastics, deep condition once or twice a week, use gel for styling if you want, no silicone in your conditioner, and to scrunch your hair when you style. I also sleep with a satin pillow case which helps with frizz! There is so much information but I hope it helps. Check out my channel too http://www.youtube.com/user/Puertoricanbeauty22 if you want I have videos on it 😊

This is how I style my hair it might be beneficial to you. First I cleanse my scalp with my V05 kiwi and lime conditioner, rinse it out, apply tresseme naturals silicone free conditioner all over my hair, detangle it with my fingers and a wide tooth comb, leave it all in, cup my hands under cold water and poor a couple cups onto the top of my head to help with frizz. Leaving the conditioner in keeps my hair as frizz free as possible!

Then to style I spray ouidad curl refresher spray sparingly, get some LA looks sport gel in my hands, scrunch once, then use an old cotton t-shirt to scrunch all the water out and enhance my curls. This method is perfect for my curls! After that I do not touch it at all! Scrunching your hair with a t-shirt is so much better than a towel because it does not cause frizz.

By the way I scrunch with my head down 😊 and then once I am done scrunching I shake my curls by shaking my head gently so they fall in their natural position. After that it is really important not to touch it no matter how tempted you are lol and air dry. Blow drying, straightening, silicones, and sulfates are all removed from my routine and my curls have never been happier!
