Stop Frizz Before It Starts: Our Top Curl Care Tips
We've all been there — you spend time perfecting your curls, only to watch them puff up into a frizzy halo the moment you step outside. Sound familiar? The good news is that frizz isn't something you just have to put up with. A few small tweaks to your routine can make a massive difference.
Hydration is Everything
Frizz is almost always a sign that your hair is thirsty. When curls are dry, they reach out into the air to grab moisture — and that's where the puffiness comes from. Using a hydrating curl crème as part of your styling routine helps lock in moisture before your hair even has a chance to frizz up.
Apply Products to Soaking Wet Hair
This one's a game-changer. The wetter your hair is when you apply your products, the smoother and more defined your curls will dry. Don't towel dry first — just scrunch out the drips and get styling straight away.
Use a Curl-Friendly Brush
Not all brushes are created equal for curly hair. A good detangling brush — like the Denman D3 — helps distribute product evenly through each curl, reducing frizz and boosting definition at the same time.
Lock It in With Gel
A curl gel with a strong hold seals the hair cuticle as your curls dry, keeping frizz firmly out. Don't be afraid of the crunchy cast — just scrunch it out once your hair is fully dry for soft, defined curls underneath.
Give Your Curls a Weekly Treat
A deep hydration hair mask once a week tops up your curls' moisture levels so they stay frizz-free for longer. Think of it as a reset button for your hair.
