If You Have Tight Curls

"The drier your hair, the fuzzier your frizz," says Dickey, owner of the New York City salon Hair Rules. So shampoo no more than every other day and use sulfate-free or non-sudsing cream formulas. Condition as usual, then add a leave-in conditioner for extra moisture.

When your hair is still wet, apply a mixture of anti-frizz cream and gel.

Finger-twist your curls to help them dry in a controlled pattern, then gently diffuse or air-dry without disturbing the curl. Once your hair is completely dry, rub a little serum on your palms and run them (very lightly) over your hair.
