Can I Get Frizz-Free Hair Forever?
Yes...The right combination of products and hair care techniques can help to get your smoothest, most gorgeous hair ever.
What Causes Frizzy Hair?
Frizz may be caused by Genetics, Hair damage and Humidity. Dryness and dehydration causing your hair to absorb excess moisture. It absorbs moisture from the environment. If the environment you are in has high humidity your hair will absorb moisture. Curly and wavy hair is more prone to dryness, which means it’s more prone to frizz.
How does my hair create Frizz?
Frizz is caused by a raised cuticle layer. When the cuticle is raised, moisture from the air is able to enter the hair shaft and cause it to swell. The hair looks dry and frizzy when the cuticle isn't lying flat. When the cuticle is flat, hair looks smoother.
Curly /wavy hair types naturally have frizz. Curly hair is drier than straight hair because the natural oils produced by our scalp can’t travel as easily down the hair shaft like on straight hair. Curly hair can also look frizzy if the hairs haven’t been bonded together to create a defined curl.
What can we do to eliminate Frizz?
Follow the routine below to get control of that frizz and get rid of it.
1.Use the Right Shampoo
Shampoos that contain sulfates can strip the hair of its natural oils, which are necessary for fighting frizz. Instead, opt for a sulfate-free formula, which is gentler on the hair and the scalp, and only wash with shampoo when your hair really needs it.

Choose your shampoo wisely.Look for shampoos designed to hydrate hair and reduce frizz. Select a shampoo that is specifically formulated to reduce frizz which is packed with moisturizing ingredients and specially formulated to help get rid of frizzy hair.
2.Keep your scalp moisturized.
Good hair comes from a healthy scalp. And because frizz occurs when your strands are in search of moisture, you want to give them the hydration they need while you’re in the shower. Use shampoos and conditioners that are made with natural moisturizers like coconut, argan oil, and shea butters. Plus, if you want your hair to look flawless, Use a smoothing hair mask twice a week to deeply penetrate your strands for smoother results.

3.Detangle hair in the Shower
With naturally curly / wavy hair, the first rule is never to brush the hair when it’s dry, apart from before shampooing. Instead, detangle your hair while washing with conditioner. ALFAPARF Milano Semi Di Lino Smoothing conditioner
4.Tame Frizz With a Leave-In Conditioners, oils and creams.
For happy, frizz-free hair the number one tip is moisture. Use leave-in conditioners, oils, and creams to coat the hair's shaft so it's less able to soak up the humidity in the air. Apply to WET hair a few inches away from your roots through your ends.The more the hair dries without product to hold it together, the more it separates, and that separation turns into frizz.

5.Skip the Cotton Hair Towel
Rubbing hair dry with a towel (especially the fluffy cotton kind) only roughs up the cuticle, which makes it more prone to the frizz once it dries. Instead, gently squeeze out the excess water from the hair dry with a thin microfiber towel.
Friction lifting the hair cuticle and creating frizz. If your hair is curly, wavy, or prone to frizz, brushing when it’s dry is a big no-no. Brushing lifts the cuticle, creating frizz. Sleeping on a rough cotton pillowcase or vigorously towel-drying can also ruffle the cuticle layer.
Styling your hair with heat is a great way to seal the cuticle. When using a blow-dryer, make sure you dry it completely.
If your hair is prone to frizz, chances are you probably aren’t getting it 100 percent dry when blow-drying. Even the slightest trace of moisture will cause hair with texture or wave to frizz.
Use ALFAPARF MILANO STYLE STORIES BLOW-DRY CREAM makes drying quicker and easier. It controls frizz and does not weigh hair down, leaving it feeling soft and light. Apply to damp hair before drying.
Smooth the Cuticle With a Blow-Dryer
Over-styling damaging the hair cuticle and causing frizz. Heat damage and styling is another common culprit of frizzy hair. The high heat from blow-drying or flat-ironing can damage the hair’s cuticle, causing frizz.
When blow-drying hair, whether it's straight or drying it from curly to straight, always remember to blow the air of the dryer down the hair shaft, away from the roots to the ends, following the brush with the dryer. If you blow the hair upward toward the roots, this will cause the cuticle to raise.”
7.Swap Your Hairspray With an Anti-Frizz Oil
While it can be tempting to use a hairspray to smooth frizzies and flyaways, most formulas contain a high level of alcohol, which will dry out the hair and further cause frizz. When finishing your style, lock in the moisture with a smoothing oil or hydrating cream. ALFAPARF Milano Semi di Lino Sublime Cristalli di Seta - Smoothing Oil for Rebellious Hair .

8.Sleep on a satin pillow case.
Want to achieve dramatic results overnight? Switch out your cotton pillow cases for a satin pillow case Why? Because cotton pillow cases (while comfy to sleep on) suck out the moisture from your hair, can cause friction, and can damage your hair cuticles. Satin pillows will prevent damage and can even help prolong hairstyles.
9.Use a boar bristle brush.
The boar bristle brush will help distribute oils throughout your hair, massage your scalp, and seal the cuticles to make your hair look shiny and new. While this brush is a must for straight and wavy-haired women, if you have curly locks, try to just use your fingers or a combo to get rid of frizz and prevent any damage.
10.Use a keratin treatment or Brazilian blow-dry.
If all else fails and you don’t have time to manage your frizzy mane, opt for a keratin treatment or Brazilian blow-dry to keep your locks in place. Not only will these treatments get rid of frizz, they will also cut your styling time in half. However, make sure to use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to maintain the treatment so it can last longer.
11.If your hair is damaged by heat or over-processing:
Take a break from coloring. Bleaching, Hair dye, and over-processing hair lead to inevitable damage. If your hair’s looking a little fried, lay off on the color sessions for a while and try a deep conditioning hair mask instead. You can mix alfaparf pigments with a hair mask to increase the vibrancy of you existing coloured hair.
Go easy on the heat. Flat irons, hairdryers, curling wands—they all burn your hair’s cuticle. If you must use heat tools, use them on the lowest setting. If you blow-dry your hair, use a diffuser to limit direct heat. Heat protecting sprays / creams can create a barrier against heat damage, locking in moisture for softer, more lustrous locks.
Get regular trims. Sometimes a little trim is all your hair needs to eliminate breakage and split ends.
Often one product alone isn’t enough to get rid of frizzy hair, especially if you have thicker or curly hair. Instead, think of your products as part of a holistic routine that works together to fight frizz.
