Taming the frizzies

Q: I can't seem to keep my frizzy hair under control. Do you have any suggestions?

A: Certainly. Humidity often causes the frizzies and, since there's not much you can do about the weather, it's best to use products that contain silicone - they will help keep your hair under control. If your hair is still frizzy, even when it's not damp outside, you might be handling your hair too much. Here's a trick: After you wash your hair, gently squeeze out excess moisture with a towel - never rub it dry, as excess friction can damage or break off hair. When you blow-dry your hair, use a soft, natural-bristle round brush (after your hair is partially dried), and be sure to dry your hair completely. During the day, don't brush your hair - just use a wide-toothed comb when necessary or, better yet, use your fingers. A tiny drop of silicone serum, available at your local chemist, will also help tame the frizz.
