4 Causes of Wet Frizz

Which one of these issues do you think is causing your wet frizz? Here’s what to do ⤵️

1️⃣ Buildup
Clarifying on a regular basis is important to “reset” curls. If you have product buildup, use a clarifying shampoo.
If you have hard water in your home (a large majority of people do), those minerals can buildup on your hair and cannot be removed with regular shampoos. Hard water buildup requires a special type of clarifying shampoo called a “chelating” shampoo.

My favorites:
- Malibu C Un-do Goo: https://amzn.to/3Om242D
- Olaplex Nº.4C Bond Maintenance Shampoo: https://amzn.to/3F5w0hv

2️⃣ Dryness
If you’re not deep conditioning on a regular basis, your curls will likely become dry. Lack of moisture will cause wet frizz. Always deep condition after using a clarifying shampoo to restore moisture.

3️⃣ Tangles
Tangles are on of the biggest culprits of wet frizz when you’re styling. Simply scrunching in some product doesn’t always cut it because there are often small tangles within your curl clumps like I showed here.
Using a brush to style is the best way to smooth these tiny knots or rouge hairs out.

I recommend the Tangle Teezer: https://amzlink.to/az033gxXxkLfe

4️⃣ Lack of hold
If your gel or mousse doesn’t dry with a “cast” or that crunch, then it’s not strong enough hold. Hold is what keeps the curls defined and prevents frizz. Don’t be afraid of the crunch because you can scrunch it out once dried. If your gel is strong enough hold, your hair shouldn’t frizz up after scrunching it out.
