Products for Frizzy Hair
If you have been reading my blogs, you know I am the Queen of frizzy hair. I have graduated Arlington Beauty Academy and also worked for a while in a beauty supply store, but that means nothing! My unruly, kinky, frizzy hair and knowing how to have it looking beautiful is what qualifies me to even write about this subject.
As I mentioned I worked in a beauty supply store and have literally tried thousands of products in my 38 years on earth. I have come up with solutions. Let me share which products work best for frizzy hair!
As I begin my thoughts, please feel free to glance around my blog. I spent time hand picking my favorite products, that I personally use, to place around my blog. Feel free to check them out.
Products for Frizzy Hair, to wear a straight hair style
I have a regimen, when I straighten my hair, I start by shampooing and conditioning my hair, although I love Rusk shampoo and Conditioner, sometimes I buy cheaper. As long as you purchase a deep conditioner. (Do not buy leave in conditioner.)
Then I towel dry my hair and put Tresemme mouse in my hair (Yes! even when I am going to straighten my hair, and this is the key product for frizzy hair!) I blow dry my hair thoroughly, and then use my Rusk Flat iron. Their flat irons are not the cheapest on the market, but well worth every penny. They will last you many years. I like Rusk ceramic Flat Irons. (I must add, I have tried several different hot irons and the Rusk flat irons are heads above anything else!)
Now that my hair is straight, I add Rusk Sea Kelp Serum. It smooths the hair and leaves a touch of shine. You can actually use this on wet hair or dry, I personally use it on dry. And bonus, it smells great! This is a must have product for frizzy hair.
Products for Frizzy Hair- Curly hair style
When I wear my hair curly, I wash my hair the same and add the tresemme mouse. I use a great powerful blow dryer and diffuser and scrunch my hair as I blow dry. Make sure you dry your hair completely.
So that about sums it up. My favorite products for frizzy hair are Tresemme Mouse, Rusk Flat Iron, Rusk sea kelp Serum, a great blow dryer, and a shampoo and deep conditioner! Try my suggestions, you will be amazed!

Hair Straightening Products
Hair Straightening Products
The truth is anyone can straighten their hair at home, with the right products. I did graduate from Arlington Beauty Academy and also worked at a beauty supply store for a while, but that means nothing. My personal experience with my own, very unruly and frizzy hair, and trying every product on the market, is what I feel matters.
You may look at my Photo above and think, her hair is not that bad, but trust me.......hehe that picture was taken after doing my hair. I have Italian hair that is the absolute frizziest hair I have seen, with kinky curls. Maybe in a latter post I can add a before I do my hair photo, you will not believe it!
Enough about me! You came here to hear about hair straightening products, and I have some advice. I have found a perfect combination of hair products that works for me and I will share them.
Hair Straightening Products- Flat irons
Invest in a good flat iron. You may look around the page and notice I spent time finding my personal favorite hot irons, that work wonders. My personal favorite is Rusk. They are not the cheapest available, but well worth the extra money. My last Rusk Flat iron lasted 7 years, so if you think of it that way and how long you will have it, spending the money is easier. If you have hair like I do, there is a huge difference in products that work and products that do not. Find a flat iron that gets hot, the hotter the better. I, personally like the ceramic irons, they are smoother on the hair and just seem to work better. You may notice there are different size flat iron plates to choose from, that does not really matter, choose if you want a larger or smaller plate.
Hair Straightening Products- Smoothing Serum
You will also notice I included Rusk Sea Kelp Serum here in an ad, yes I personally found it and purposely added it here for you to find more easily. You can use this while your hair is wet or dried. I personally straighten my hair and then add the Rusk Serum and it smooths and finishes my hair with a bit of shine, (and PS! it smells wonderful.) This smoother is pretty cheap and you will fall in love with it.
Hair Straightening Products
After I shampoo and Condition my hair, I towel dry my hair and add Tresemme Mouse, yes it sounds weird, but as I mentioned, I have TRIED EVERYTHING. I use Tresemme Mouse before I blow dry my hair for a straight look and I use it when I will be doing a curly look. It is cheap, under $5 and it works. I had tried every expensive product out there and the Tresemme is the only thing I use after towel drying.
Hair Straightening Products- Shampoo & Conditioner
I personally, do not believe that the shampoo or conditioner you use when straightening your hair matters that much, again I love Rusk and included the shampoo and conditioner in the ads, to the side, but often I will save money and buy cheaper products. As long as you have a moisturizing Conditioner, it really does not matter. From a beautician stand point, it matters, but again, my blog is on personal experience.
Hair Straightening Products- One last Tip
You can use a blow dryer and brush to straighten your hair, you just need to start at the bottom of your hair and take section by section (small sections) and completely dry each piece, as you go. I do prefer a flat iron over a blow dryer!
