If you have dry, frizzy hair, then you have probably tried your share of anti-frizz serums over the years. Every time a new product would appear, those of us trying to calm the frizz of our curly hair styles would be first to sample and test the claims of their manufacturers.

One of the first products I ever tried, , has remained the #1 favorite, and it all started with one little packet. It was nice to have the ability to sample the product by purchasing it in packet form (two single-use packets), before buying the full-sized bottle.

Shopping for an anti-frizz serum can be tough because so many products on the market contain alcohol and other drying, or irritating ingredients. Frizz-Ease Serum’s short list of ingredients was a nice change. It contains Cyclomethicone and Dimethiconol, which are clear, odorless silicone products that gives Frizz-Ease it’s silky-smooth feel and frizz-calming properties. The last ingredient is Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, a tongue-twisting name for the sunscreen that gives Frizz-Ease its UV protection.

Another reason for the short-list of ingredients may be due to its fragrance-free quality, which should be seen as a positive thing. Remember that even though a product may “smell yummy” – the chemicals added to it in order to achieve that fragrance may not be so great for extremely dry hair.

When it comes to anti-frizz serums, everyone has their favorites – Bumble and Bumble, Citre Shine, John Frieda, Garnier Fructis – the list goes on forever. What is yours?

Use a wide tooth comb as much as possible, since brushes can be very damaging to the ends, especially when you encounter tangles.

If it is really curly and you live in humid conditions, a leave-in conditioning treatment and smoothing gel may be good ideas.

If you have the time and you can, let your hair dry naturally. Naturally, if it is the dead of winter and freezing outside you might need to use the blow dryer – if you do, using a diffuser will keep your curls from getting beat up from the force of the dryer’s air.

You can revive your curly hair styles at any time by spritzing the curls lightly with water or any of the shine sprays on the market designed for curly hair.
