If you regularly experience frizzy hair, chances are that you\u2019ve experimented with different strategies to tame your mane. Frizzy hair typically happens when the cuticle layer of hair raises, allowing moisture to pass through and swell the strands. That ultimately makes hair appear dry and frizzy. Individual hair fibers also run in different directions, which is why frizzy hair<\/strong> feels rough instead of soft and smooth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you were to look at the cuticle layer underneath a microscope, you would see that it looks like shingles on a roof. This is because hair consists of several different layers of keratin protein. The cuticle is the external layer and the inner layers are the cortex and medulla. When your cuticle layer is sealed properly, it easily retains moisture in the hair shaft for longer, making your hair less frizzy<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Causes Frizz?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are four contributing factors to frizzy hair<\/a>, the first being the environment, e.g. humidity. Hair fibers are just like sponges when exposed to moisture and the hydrophobic bonds from styling products break as moisture weaves in and out of hair fibers. The diameter of the hair fiber also contributes to frizz. As mentioned earlier, frizzy hair is essentially misaligned hair fibers and the thicker the fiber, the more difficult it is to reshape and tame. The third cause is how curly a person\u2019s hair is because curlier hair has a greater challenge of aligning hair fibers. Finally, the amount of damage to hair also contributes to frizz. Consider that breakage, split ends, and cuticle loss can all give hair a frizzy appearance because hair fibers are not uniform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
