Frizzy hair—a never-ending battle for many. Does this sound familiar: looking in the mirror and seeing a head of hair that seems to have a mind of its own? You’re not alone! Frizz can strike at any time, especially when it’s humid outside or when your hair is dry and damaged. But don’t worry—we have plenty of tips to help you get your frizzy hair under control. Here, we’ll go over why hair gets frizzy, what you can do about it, and which products from The Every help you along the way.
Why does hair get frizzy?
Frizzy hair occurs when the hair lacks moisture and therefore begins to absorb moisture from the air. This results in a fluffy or "static" look that can be difficult to style. The causes of frizz can vary, but the most common factors include:
- Dryness and damage: Damaged or very dry hair has lost its natural moisture content and is therefore more prone to frizz.
- Humid environment: High humidity causes the hair’s cuticle to open up and absorb moisture from the air, leading to frizz.
- Incorrect hair care: Using products that contain sulfates or alcohol can dry out your hair and make it more frizzy.
- Heat styling tools: Overusing flat irons and curling irons without heat protection damages the hair’s structure and contributes to frizz.
How to Tame Frizzy Hair
Taming frizzy hair is all about moisturizing and protecting your hair. Here are a few steps you can follow to get your frizz under control:
1. Use the right shampoo and conditioner
Choose a shampoo and conditioner that are specially formulated to moisturize your hair. Caring Shampoo and Caring Conditioner from The Every perfect for combating dryness and nourishing your hair and scalp. They contain hyaluronic acid and avocado oil, which help lock in moisture and reduce frizz.
2. Apply a deep-conditioning hair mask regularly
A moisturizing hair mask can work wonders for frizzy hair. Use Caring Masque once a week to give your hair a serious moisture boost. It contains shea butter and hyaluronic acid that deeply moisturize and leave your hair soft and shiny.
3. Heat protection is your best friend
If you love styling your hair with heat tools, be sure to use a good heat protectant to prevent further damage. Nourishing Heat Protection from The Every a fantastic product that not only protects against heat but also moisturizes and prevents split ends.

Hair oils can help tame frizz and give your hair a healthy shine. Renewal Hair Oil is an excellent option that contains argan oil and oat kernel oil to nourish and protect your hair without feeling heavy or greasy.
5. Use a microfiber towel or a cotton T-shirt
Regular towels can cause friction and make your hair frizzy. Instead, switch to a microfiber towel or an old cotton T-shirt when drying your hair to minimize damage.
