Frizz Control Hair Care: How to
Manage Dry, Unruly Hair
Introduction to Frizz Control Hair Care
What is Frizz?
Frizz occurs when the outer layer of the hair strand (the cuticle) lifts and allows moisture from the environment to enter the hair shaft. This causes the hair to swell, leading to a rough, dry, and unmanageable appearance.
