Air dry products that reduce frizz and make hair low maintenance?

Anonymous — Sun, 05 Nov 2017 19:50:37 GMT

I have very long light brown hair that's naturally wavy and very frizzy. I never damaged it with heat or dyes, but I think it's frizzy because my hair is thin and the strands break when I brush, creating split ends and random short hairs. I honestly always have tangles and knots no matter what. I'm looking for a product that I can use after showering that will reduce the frizz and enhance the waves/curls as my hair dries naturally (but curl definition is optional, I'm mostly interested in frizz reduction). I've worn my hair scrunched for the last 7 years (it turns my hair completely curly and voluminous), but I'm open to other styles. For those 7 years, I used Garnier Curl Construct Mousse everyday and I loved it. However, I think they changed the formula because now it leaves white residue on my hair which makes it unusable. I'm just looking for a product that I can slather on and then stop worrying about my hair for a couple of days (all I have to do in the morning is reapply the product). I don't mind crunchiness, but I do mind stickiness, residue, and loss of volume. Do you have any suggestions for me?

I have a similar hair texture. Pureology Hydrate Air Dry Cream (applied to towel dried hair) is fantastic

hi! I have really frizzy wavy curly hair too! I love using Moroccan oil curl defining cream along with their hair oil. It works wonder and is totally worth the price

Bumble and bumble and living proof both make product but for air drying hair. Bumble and bumble don’t blow it and living proof in shower styler. Both are applied wet and made for heat free styling. Taming frizz and enhancing natural texture.

I've always wanted to try Moroccanoil products but wasn't sure if they would be worth the price. Now I'll give them a try for sure.

Ooh, I heard the Allure box had that one month. I really want to try it

My favorite is Davroe Ends Repair...my hair is also thin and curly and this defines my curls and reduces frizz without adding too much weight. I’d also invest in a wet brush...my hair has gotten significantly less frizzy, tangled, and damaged since starting to use mine!

I have long, fine hair that has some wave to it.

I like to use the DevaCurl Waver Maker Texture Whip (https://www.sephora.com/product/wave-maker-touchable-texture-whip-P411357?skuId=1844323)

Followed up by the IGK Rich Kid along the bottom half to two-third of my hair because I find it controls the frizz and smooths things out a bit, where as the DevaCurl enhances the wave (https://www.sephora.com/product/rich-kid-coconut-oil-gel-P410477?country_switch=ca)

Hair products are one of the things I've had excellent luck sampling in store. I can usually tell from one or two uses if it's a hit or a total miss for my hair, so I generally try before I buy on all hair products.

The Living Proof In-Shower Styler is my latest obsession. Definitely pick up the travel-size and give it a go. I don't really like the scent, which is usually a deal-breaker, but it makes my fine, wavy hair so pretty. The MOST compliments.

I also have frizzy, wavy hair that I am too lazy to heat style. My personal favorites for air drying nice waves are DevaCurl Set it Free spray and Bumble and Bumble Don't Blow it. I use one or the other on my hair and they provide enough moisture to tame the frizz without being too heavy or greasy for my hair.

What works for my hair which is wavy/curly is leave in conditioner, coconut oil (also enhances curl) and Deva Curl Super Cream. I do this right out of the shower so my hair is still soaking wet, then scrunch and put it up in an old tshirt for at least 10 minutes. Then my hair dries mostly frizz free and super curly.

Also, I wash with Deva Curl No Poo and condition with a silicone free conditioner. I found that sulfates were drying my hair, and if you take out sulfates you need to take out most silicones as well.

Curly, wavy and frizzy hair is thirsty, it needs hydration. So first and foremost you want to be using haircare products that provide hydration. This alone could potentially be enough to control some of that frizz you are feeling. Because when the hair becomes dehydrated, then frizz can start to occur. If that alone didn't correct the problem, then you would need to be using a styling product that eliminates frizz. I love our Iles Formula Finishing Serum for this because it can be used wet or dry and eliminates the frizz. Your waves or curls will come to life before your eyes.

My recommendation would be our Iles Formula Haute Performance Set. It comes with our shampoo, conditioner and finishing serum, and the conditioning distribution comb. You can check out our reviews here on Sephora, and I will add a link to the set here so you can check it out.

Definitely try samples of Verb's Ghost Shampoo & Conditio...

Definitely try samples of Verb's Ghost Shampoo & Conditioner and/or Living Proof's In-Shower Styler! I live for air drying my wavy, color-treated hair, but I have a ton of frizz underneath, so it can get tricky. After trying every drugstore product for air drying and/or waves, I found Living Proof's In-Shower Styler. Now I panic a little when I'm running low. 🙂 I also recently tried 2 different sample sets of Verb shampoo & conditioners (Ghost & Sea) which were both so good that I didn't have to use product or even scrunch my hair to get the waves I want. The best part was how soft they all leave my hair since I haven't had soft hair in years. I ended up ordering the full sizes for Ghost, but I'm passing on buying their Salt line because it seems to make scalps itchy over time. Makes sense. Good luck & pass along any products that work for you! ETA- I also swear by both types of Aquis hair towels, which I've been using for 10+ years.

My hair sounds similar to yours: wavy, thinning/prone to breakage (hence lots of fuzzies). I'm also strictly silicone-free with my hair products, which is an additional challenge. I received a sample of Briogeo's Curl Charisma Leave-In Defining Creme, and I'm obsessed with it. It minimizes the fuzz, provides definition and volume while still being soft and touchable, and re-activates easily to give me good second- (and sometimes third-)day hair. It might be worth a shot!

We would love for you to try Verb's Ghost Oil! It can be applied on wet or dry hair, and completely restores hair from roots to ends. Let us know what you think!

I suggest a Ghost oil by verb. I have long hair that tends to get frizzy and this helps to keep it soft and maintained through the day. I also notice my hair gets way less tangled when I use this product. Hope this helps!

So, I have very long, thick, frizz-prone wavy hair that I very rarely use heat on. I've tried a TON of leave-in products and my favorite by far is Davines OI All In One Milk

It does have a bit of an herbal scent (which I love), but if you aren't a fan of that I know that @ShannonAlexis has some yummy scented choices!

Love the Morrocan oil curl defining creme but don't recommend for coloured hair. I found it made my hair colour fade to a brassy colour from blonde.
