I heard John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Simply Sleek straightening balm is a good curl booster. I like it because it makes my hair soft. Try molasses or honey. You can either mix it with conditioner and olive oil for a deep treatment, mix with your conditioner daily, or mix a tiny drop in with your leave-in conditioner. Or you can do a rinse with it by pouring a cup of warm water mixed with about a tablespoon each of conditioner and molasses over my hair and do a very quick rinse with cool water.

try a moisturizng curl cream like matrix curl lifes cream. its wonderful. it moisturizes the hair, so it doesnt have any reason to frizz. and a weekly deep treatment with a good deep conditioner would help immensely

you can do anything if you set your mindto it (just dont try this with hair,that could turn out bad)

i have awful frizzy, big, wavy hair when i let my hair dry naturally so for the past few years i've resorted to straightening it. i hate it cause i know how bad it is for my hair and im wanting to grow it long so over the summer im going to leave it to air-dry. but basically i want to know how to make my frizzy waves more defined. i get the odd ringlet when i leave it but the rest of it is uneven waves so it looks horrible. what products should i use etc? i've tried some 'curl activater' products but they made my hair even worse. please help me
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, because you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
