Any tips to make hair stay curly without the frizz?

I have wavy-curly hair that looks like a frizzy semi-straight mess if I don't treat it right. When I want to wear it curly, this is what I do (I read it somewhere; for treating curly hair):

First, before you go to bed, brush your hair a lot to distribute the oils, which will originate from your scalp. I say do it before bed, because if you do it after a shower in the morning, it's more likely to frizz. You can also brush first thing in the morning, or any time you're not going out in public %26amp; don't care.

Second, don't wash your hair every day. Two or three times a week, wash only the roots. I do this by soaking my hair, then flipping my head over. I put shampoo in the palm of one hand, and use the fingertips of the other to work small amounts of shampoo into my roots, beginning in the front, then around the ears and as far up as I can go toward my crown and the back without shampooing it ALL. Then I put my hair back where it goes, tilt my head far back, and use my fingertips, beginning at the nape of the neck. Just be sure you rinse your face, too, as you probably will have dripped some suds, and I frequently get them up my nose (that burns a little).

When you wash, or even daily if you prefer, condition your hair thoroughly. It is recommended that you begin with the roots (I massage the scalp as I go), and work your way out. I use the same method as when I shampoo. However, after I've done my roots %26amp; all, I'll totally cream my hair. Pile it loosely on top of your head, and let the conditioner sit for 2-5 minutes. If you do your hair first, you can let it sit while you wash the rest of you, shave, etc. I've probably let the conditioner sit in my hair for 20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly, especially if you've loaded on the conditioner. I will usually tip my head forward and let it run off by my face, similar to the way I rinse when I color my hair.

Don't wring out your hair when you're done. Instead, gently squeeze the water out. Then lightly wrap a towel in a turban for a while. When you towel-dry your hair, don't rub too much. Again, you'll want to squeeze the water into the towel, and leave it a little damp.

Use a pick to eliminate possible tangles, and always start from the bottom to avoid breakage.

I recently picked up some Clairol Herbal Essences Smoothing Creme with aloe on a whim. Since my style change, and devotion to soft, curly hair, I plan to NEVER buy a different product. It's lovely!!!

When using styling products, it is advisable to NOT begin application near the roots, especially when utilizing your hair's natural oils. I mean styling products such as this. Anything used for smoothing, etc. (Volumizing products are usually applied at the roots first.) I squeeze about a dime-size amount in the palm of my hand, rub my hands together, and apply it by scrunching it into my hair. If it were longer, I would probably begin at the ends, but it's only to my shoulders at its longest. Once I've reduced the amount of product ON MY HANDS, I will direct more attention to root areas, and around my face. If you START there, you may look greasy.

If you blow-dry, use a diffuser, and keep the heat low. If you use the smoothing creme (found in a green squeeze bottle; mine), I would apply a decent amount BEFORE drying, and use just a little tiny bit to settle your look AFTER drying and/or styling.

You may want to avoid sprays, spritzes, and gels, as they often contain alcohol, which will dry out your hair AND require more frequent washing. This will ultimately cancel out everything I've just told you.

I swear by Dove hair care products. The only reason I picked up the Herbal Essences is that I didn't see anything like it near the Dove products. When I run out, I will look again, and try anything similar made by Dove. Otherwise, I'll probably stick with what I've got for life.

Good luck to you :-)

I suggest that you apply a bit of mousse to it wet and pick it out (or use a large toothed comb). Do not blow it dry all the way and always use a diffuser. When you are finished, apply a bit of hair oil.
