Frizz Control

How to hydrate dry hair and smooth frizz

Dry hair isn’t easy to manage. It’s prone to breakage and split ends and can look dull; however, this shouldn’t hold you back from having a stunning style. Here are a few easy ways you can get absolutely gorgeous, luscious locks without a hint of dryness.


Grab Nature’s Best

Dry hair lacks moisture, which is why it is important to make the most of your natural oils. Pores in your scalp produce sebum, a natural oil that keeps the hair cuticle hydrated and smooth. To open up your pores, massage your scalp when you wash your hair. Doing this will stimulate your hair follicles and loosen dirt and dandruff that may be clogging your pores. Condition your hair with products designed to smooth your strands and keep them moisturized, like Vive Pro Smooth Intense Conditioner for Dry, Frizzy Hair with Medium Texture or Vive Pro Nutri-Gloss Conditioner for Medium to Long Hair That’s Damaged. Be sure to shampoo every other day and use only the matching Vive Pro Shampoo to maintain your silky smoothness. If you have colored-treated hair, use Vive Pro Colour-Vive Shampoo and Conditioner for Colour-Treated Hair That’s Dry or Damaged to protect your color while you hydrate your locks. To help boost your body’s natural oils, drink lots of water and add a healthy portion of olive oil to your diet to make sure you get the most natural hydration and shine.


Wipe Out Frizz

To beat frizz, take care to avoid breaking your strands at all costs. To seal moisture in, wash your hair with lukewarm water and rinse with ice cold water. Never rub your hair with a towel or twist it in a turban; instead, pat your hair dry gently. Spritz on Studio Line Sedated Downright Smooth Spray and separate your strands with a wide tooth comb. Also try to let your hair air-dry as much as possible to help retain moisture before you turn on the blow dryer.


Prepare with Products

Dry, frizzy locks need more attention than other hair types. Give your hair what it needs with products that help smooth cuticles, add shine, and make hair more manageable and supple. Invest in products like Studio Line Sedated Downright Smooth Spray™ to fight frizz, Studio Line Unkempt Out of Bed® to gain manageability and texture, and Studio Line Shine Seeker Glass Shine Spray™ to finish your look with a glossy shine that keeps flyaways in check.


Banish Burnout

The best way to maintain smooth, supple locks is by keeping styling to a minimum. Blow-dry with cool air only to avoid dehydrating hair. Direct the air down your strands to protect your cuticles and always use a soft boar-bristle brush during your blowout. Stay away from curling or straightening irons, but if you must indulge, use Studio Line Heat Seeker Hot Straight Cream™ to protect your hair.


Live and Breathe Hair Treatments

To boost the overall health of your hair and be at your most radiant, keep your hair hydrated, protected, and strengthened with hair treatments. The Advanced Nutrileum Complex in Vive Pro Smooth Intense Conditioning Treatment keeps hair soft and supple, while the Pearl Protein Complex in Vive Pro Nutri-Gloss Conditioning Treatment fortifies and shines your strands. If you have color-treated hair, use Vive Pro Colour-Vive Conditioning Treatment, which has deep conditioners that penetrate strands, plus UV filters to protect your hair from the drying elements of the sun. Using hair treatments will revitalize, nourish, and illuminate your hair, making it as perfect as possible.
