QUESTION: My hair is dyed blonde and a while back I also got a perm. I regularly go to the hairdresser, I use a good (volume) shampoo and I style with a hair dryer and mousse. The problem is my hair is so frizzy. What can I do about that?
ANSWER: “Many problems with frizz-prone hair are the result of damaged cuticles :the protective cells on the outside of each hair. Coloring and perming your hair, sunlight and using a blow dryer or other heat stylers can cause this damage †

With frizzy hair, the surface is open and frayed. This makes the hair look dull and easily tangles † In addition, the unprotected hair shaft leads to porosity, which makes the hair dry and brittle.
To prevent fluff as much as possible, it is wise to use a hair mask once a week. to use. Choose a strengthening cream mask that penetrates deep into the hair and specifically cares for damaged areas.
The anti-lint policy already starts in the shower † Start with a nourishing shampoo with anti-linting ingredients. You can recognize it by the cream-like substance. Then you apply a serum to very wet hair, so that it can adhere well. The serum immediately ensures that the hair cuticles are smoothed.
Then towel dry your hair and apply an alcohol-free curl mousse . for beautiful curls which gives bounce to strokes and curls. Examples include John Frieda Frizz-Ease Curl Reviver , Guhl Curl Power and Andrélon Curl Mousse †
