Dry or Frizzy Hair
Dryness and frizz can reflect hair type, washing frequency, styling habits, heat exposure and weather. Dermatologists recommend matching wash frequency and conditioning to hair type, handling wet hair gently and limiting excessive heat.
COMMON CHARACTERISTICS
What people often mean by “dry or frizzy hair.”
Rough or dry-feeling lengths
Frizz that increases with humidity or handling
Tangling or breakage
Ends may need more conditioning than the scalp
BEAUTY CONSIDERATIONS
A calmer starting point.
Apply shampoo mainly to the scalp rather than aggressively scrubbing the full length.
Use conditioner after washing and focus it where the hair needs moisture.
Handle wet hair gently and detangle in a way that suits your hair texture.
Use low or medium heat and reduce the frequency of high-heat styling.
PRACTICAL GUIDES
Go one level deeper.
WHEN BEAUTY CONTENT ISN'T ENOUGH
Ongoing breakage, scalp symptoms or sudden hair changes can have causes beyond cosmetic dryness. A dermatologist or other qualified professional can help when routine changes are not enough.
