If there is something that worries us when we talk about having perfect hair, it is frizz. Any type of hair can suffer from it, but curly hair is much more prone. This is because its spiral shape means that the cuticle can be more open and moisture ends up penetrating the hair, producing that unflattering finish that we dislike so much.
Curly hair expert Conchi Arias has said on her social networks that: “Frizz doesn't just appear. Every hair has a reason… and that's why we work from a conscious diagnosis, understanding what your curls really need,” she explains. Therefore, in order to tackle the problem it is important to know the causes, but a reality that many experts insist on, and Conchi too, is that “most of the time, the cause is a lack of hydration.”
Many times, we do everything possible to make the curl defined, juicy and frizz-free, but the feeling we have is that the frizz comes out and that's it, without giving us any respite. But what Arias insists on most is following a good routine that provides deep hydration to the hair. “If you use more conditioner and leave-in, your cuticle will be more lubricated and close better,” says the hairstylist.
But beyond the products, the technique is equally important so that the ingredients work much better. The professional's recommendation for curly, fine hair is to apply leave-in, but not in any way. “Instead of putting on the leave-in and leaving it on. What you have to do is apply the product and squeeze well so that the water enters the hair, and you rinse and squeeze, rinse and squeeze,” explains Arias.
In this way, the oils and butters in the leave-in penetrate deeply and at the same time lubricate well on the outside. But, the key is to add water so as not to saturate fine hair and so that when drying it has hydration but without adding weight. “Because when care is conscious, personalized and with criteria, frizz stops being a problem… and begins to have a solution,” says the hairdresser.
