Leaning into frizz

Leaning into frizz

Frizz affects all hair types, textures, and colors, and it's often misunderstood as a sign of unhealthy hair. However, frizz is a natural characteristic of certain hair types, especially curls and waves. Rather than battling it, consider embracing your frizz as part of your hair’s unique texture. With the right approach, you can use frizz to your advantage and enhance your natural volume and shine.

For me, curly hair is always thirsty, so I've dealt with frizz my whole life. I know I'll never be completely frizz-free, but I've learned how to manage it and even use it to my advantage. 

 

CAUSES OF FRIZZ:

  1. Humidity: Hair absorbs moisture from humid air, causing the cuticle to swell and misalign, which leads to frizz.
  2. Dryness: Heat styling, harsh chemicals, and poor haircare habits can dry out your hair, making it more prone to frizz.
  3. Hair Type: Curly and thick hair types are naturally more prone to frizz because natural oils struggle to travel down the strands.

Time for Deep Treatment: When hair lacks moisture, the cuticle lifts and absorbs moisture from the air, causing frizz. This effect worsens with humidity, leading to unruly strands and less defined texture. Frizz is your hair’s way of signaling it needs hydration.

 

Why Pre-Shampoo Hair Oiling Works: Pre-shampoo hair oiling is an effective way to manage frizz. By hydrating your hair before washing, you lock in moisture and protect your strands from the drying effects of shampoo. This results in smoother, nourished hair with less frizz.

 

How to Use Pre-Shampoo Hair Oiling Treatment:

  1. Choose the Najeau Hair Mask 
  2. Warm a small amount between your palms and apply evenly to dry hair, focusing on the ends and mid-lengths.
  3. Let it sit for 20-30 minutes before rinsing with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
  4. Use weekly to maintain hydration and prevent frizz.

Embrace your frizz by making pre-shampoo hair oiling a regular part of your routine. This simple step can help your hair become more manageable, hydrated, and naturally shiny. Let frizz remind you that your hair needs a little extra care.
