> i have frizzy dry curly hair, which is dyed blond.> what hair style and lenth is best to take the frizz> out of my hair?Hi Sarah! Well, I'm not sure what can take the frizz out of hair. I've been trying to find the same miracle!! My hair is frizzy/curly and it comes down to my waist. I also dye my hair blonde too. I blow dry it straight every day. So really, the length won't matter much. Maybe what makes our hair frizzy is the fact we color it. I know that a few months ago I let some of my haircolor grow out at the roots about 3 inches and my hair was super soft and straight. The minute I put color back on it, it was dry and frizzy.Hope that helps!Sara W.

Sarah,I have frizzy curly long blond hair and I can't do anything with it. I tryed ironing it out but that didn't work. I have tryed alot of other things and they all seem to not work. Your not alone....you'll find a cure. :-)Frizzy-face(Krissy)

How long does it take you to straighten your hair? I have the exact same type of hair and love my hair straightened, but haven't the time during the week. Is your hair thick? I have type 3a.

Hello Sarah,I don't know how long your hair is now, but you could definately cut some layers to reduce some of the frizz.Make sure you use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to put moisture back into your hair from the color or bleach.There are also styling products that have silicone in them to reduce the frizz. Of course, I am referring to professional products. They cost more, but it really makes a difference in your hair. Best wishes!> i have frizzy dry curly hair, which is dyed blond.> what hair style and lenth is best to take the frizz> out of my hair?

I have type 3a.Hi JM, Well, when I blow dry it straight it usually takes me 15 to 20 minutes. I have a hard time getting the back to dry quickly. I'm not really sure if my hair is thick. It may be between the thick side and thin side.Sara :)

Hi there!Excess frizziness can be caused by overprocessing. However, being a curly head myself, I know that on top of natural frizz, chemical treatments just make the problem even worse. I would reccomend regular trims to tame those nasty ends and would advise you to use products tailor made for frizzy, curly hair. Choose a moist shampoo like Rusk Calm Shampoo or Biolage Hydrating shampoo (these have stronger cleansers to get out styling product build-up, but are also rich in good stuff, like protein). Next, choose a conditioner that wont weigh your hair down like Rusk Sensories Calm Conditioner or Biolage Detangling Rinse. In addition, DEEP conditioner twice a week with rich botanical masques like Kiehls Deep Intensive Hair Repaireteur or ARTec Moisture Pac-- the use of heat with these deep conditioners, really makes 'em work!!! Finally, and MOST importantly, find GREAT styling products. Gels are usually thicker and coat hair well which in turn keeps frizz down. Try Biolage Gelee with spritzes of Wella Restructurizer. While drying, use a diffuser attachment and DONT touch your hair at all!!! Finally, if you have stray pieces,define with a curling iron. As for cuts, try long layers, like layering the bottom three inches of your hair. This takes the wieght off your curls and keeps the top layer (the one most prone to env. damage) healthier :) HTH!!Sherry> i have frizzy dry curly hair, which is dyed blond.> what hair style and lenth is best to take the frizz> out of my hair?

Hey all,Go to www.naturallycurly.com - they are really helpful to us curlyheads! Also, a warning about silicone - they do help in the short term reducing frizzies but some people (like me) find they really fry out the hair. I can't use them too often.
