Looking for the best strand-smoothers to tame the frizz this summer? Whether you’re upgrading your daily haircare routine or wanting something to tame your tresses while away on holiday, we’re giving you the low-down on the essentials.
Frizzy hair is typically caused by dry strands that are lacking moisture. It can also make an appearance when in humid environments, that’s because dry hair tries to absorb as much moisture out of the air as it can, causing each hair’s cuticle to swell up instead of lying flat.
Our beauty team reveal their favourite formulas that help to minimise the appearance of frizz and fly-aways: from hydrating, protective masks to nourishing daily serums.
Pureology Color Fanatic Multi-Purpose Leave in Spray
“As a blondie with fine hair, but a lot of it, I still experience a little frizz and fly-aways in the summer. Priming, protecting and perfecting, this leave in spray has kept my locks bay thanks to its hydrating, strand-soothing formula.” - Jess, beauty writer.
Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum
“This product has quickly become my new haircare staple! I usually struggle with taming frizz, especially during the summer months but since using this lightweight serum my locks are smoother and much more manageable, not to mention the high-shine finish!” - Tara, beauty writer.
Philip Kingsley Swimcap Water-Resistant Mask
“This my new holiday haircare saviour! I always struggle with dry tresses when I’ve been in the sun or the sea, but the Phillip Kingsley formula formed a protective mask that instantly locked in moisture and helped to defend against UV rays, so my hair felt soft and bouncy even after a day at the beach!” - Hannah, beauty writer.
Food For Soft Oil Serum
“This lock-loving oil leaves my hair with a salon-worthy finish! It tames my fly-aways whilst hydrating and protecting my strands from heat damage, enriched with nourishing ingredients such as avocado oil working to reduce frizz and breakage.” - Livi, beauty writer.
Giovanni 50/50 Balanced Shampoo
““I needed a new reliable shampoo too keep my colour fresh between visiting the salon and this Giovanni 50:50 Balanced Shampoo is the perfect lightweight hydrating shampoo. My hair feels super clean and nourished after just one wash!” - Ella, beauty writer.
Grow Gorgeous Repair Daily Nourishing Leave In Cream
“As someone with wavy, frizzy hair, the Grow Gorgeous Leave-In Cream is an absolute staple in my haircare kit — especially during summer! It’s brimming with GG’s signature scent and a silky hair formula, leaving my tresses super nourished and shiny.” - Ros, beauty writer.
