Calling for backup: The fight against frizz!
user
Hairs are strange. They rarely do what you want them to do,
when you want them to do it. I want my hair to go to a
meeting. It wants to go to a rave. I want my hair to be
sleek and smooth. It wants to be curly and crazy. If
hair does answer to a higher power, that power is probably
humidity.
It's too hot out to pick up the hairdryer, let alone the
flat iron. Normally, I just say, When in doubt? Wear a
headband. But this is not normal. I think
my frizz is picking up radio signals from Mars. Or
Utah. I am fighting a losing battle. Send in back
up!

When that day comes when you hate your curls like me every blue moon, just wash it and let your natural curls go free with no products. And if your curls can't stay down like you want them to then just make them even bigger and go crazy. Just always remember, girls with straight ass hair wish they can have curls like us. =]

Hi Elizabeth,
You are too cute! My "when in doubt" style is a ponytail... which is 6 days out of the week :). Have you ever tried John Frieda Frizz Ease line? Those products always seem to be in a "Beauty Top 10" list and I'm so curious to know if they actually work!

I completely share your headband motto! I have way too many and love them all. I completely rely on them for bad hair days. Cute post!

Thanks for the comments, ladies! I do love John Frieda's Frizz Ease, especially the weather-proof line. And you're right, Indigo: we always want what don't have! Better to appreciate what we've got and rock those crazy curls! I need to try going product-free one of these days...

when hair is frizzy, factors are;hair cuticle needs to be closed ,so when the elements from outdoor hit it will help quite a bit.frizz is also cause by naturally dry coarse hair,or over processed hair due to color,lifting natural color out...unhealthy,stress,,,drugs,legal and illegal.at the end of this yes,pull ur hair back in ponytail...and go on with life.peace.

I have extreme curly hair and I love it. Sometimes it goes crazy, but I have found a cure. Get Dove Curl and Sculpt moose and brush your hair out make sure it's wet then put the moose in and let your hair go. Show off your curly hair people pay a lot of money to get hair like us, take advantage of it.

John Frieda products are GREAT!!! I use them regularly and they are not expensive. But still I have to use my hairdryer. My curls are not very defined, and are always crazy, they are limp ... but still curly, I invest long minutes under hot air and the iron... any good advise for me?
