Help, my curls are suddenly frizzy! What now?

You probably know the feeling: you just washed your hair, everything seemed fine... and then you look in the mirror. Frizz. Everywhere. Where have your beautiful, defined curls gone? Don't panic! Frizzy hair in curly hair is super relatable, and luckily, there's a lot you can do about it. In this blog post, I'll explain why your hair frizzes and give you tips to get your curls smooth and shiny again—completely CG-proof, of course.

Why does curly hair frizz?

Frizz is usually caused by a lack of moisture or damage to the hair cuticle. Curly hair is naturally drier than straight hair, so it needs more hydration. But there are other culprits:

• You use products with sulphates, silicones or alcohol (not CG-proof!)

• You dry your hair with a normal towel

• You sleep on a cotton pillowcase

• You don't use leave-in conditioner or gel to "seal" your curls

• It's humid weather (hello humidity!)

Anti-frizz tips for curls

Fortunately, there are plenty of things you can do to prevent or reduce frizzy hair. Here are our favorite tips:

1. Choose CG-proof products

Always use products that comply with the CG Method. Avoid sulfates, silicones, and drying alcohol. For example, consider:

• Leave-in conditioners with moisturizing ingredients such as aloe vera or glycerin

• Gels or custards that protect your hair against humidity

2. Microfiber or cotton T-shirt

Never rub your hair dry with a regular towel. Gently pat it dry with a microfiber towel or an old cotton T-shirt. This prevents frizz and breakage.

3. Protect your hair while you sleep

A satin or silk pillowcase is a game-changer! Or wear a satin bonnet to protect your curls at night.

4. Scrunching with gel or oil

Use a little gel or light oil (such as jojoba or argan) to scrunch your curls after they've dried. This helps reduce frizz and enhance curl definition.

5. Avoid excessive touching

The more you touch your curls, the more likely they are to frizz. Try to handle them as little as possible after styling.

6. Deep conditioning = your best friend

Give your hair a nourishing hair mask or deep conditioner every week. This helps your hair retain moisture and makes it less prone to frizz.

Frizzy hair? Not on your watch!

You don't have to simply accept frizz. With the right CG products and a few smart habits, you can make your curls shine again. And remember: it doesn't have to be perfect. Every curl is unique – and you should be proud of yours.
