You're enjoying a dreamy vacation on the beach and snap a selfie—oh, your hair isn't so dreamy.
You've just woken up from a restful sleep and look in the mirror—oh, your hair is not having it today.
Sound familiar? Well, unfortunately, we've all been there! Frizzy hair attacks all hair types—from thin hair to thick hair to coarse hair and every other hair texture in between.
Fighting frizz can feel like a full-time battle, but don't sweat it. Some easy changes to your current hair routine and products can take you from "oh, frizz" to "no frizz!"
Read on to discover some of the best anti-frizz products and hair accessories, anti-frizz tips and tricks, and why we have to deal with minimizing frizz in the first place.
Luxurious Blissy Silk Pillowcases, Scrunchies, and Bonnets are some of the best anti-frizz products to help you say goodbye to frizzy hair for good!
What Causes Frizzy Hair
One of the top, unavoidable causes of frizzy hair is weather.
Dry hair is often worse during the winter due to harsh weather conditions, not enough moisture in the air (both indoors and outdoors), and overcompensating for the cold by cranking up your heater (it's really hard not to, but that heat will dry out your hair and skin).
But, winter isn't the only type of weather that's a frizz factor—humidity might not dry out your hair, but it can make it poof. Humidity is not a friend to frizzy hair types.
Even if the weather's treating you right, you can still get frizz after washing from the shower's humidity. If you have dry hair cuticles, you'll notice frizz the most.
Another big cause of frizzy hair is your natural hair type. Those with curly and wavy hair types have the most issues taming frizz because their hair's natural oils have a more difficult time covering the entire strand (those beautiful, bouncy, bendy curls make it harder for the oil to be distributed evenly).
But...
All hair types—fine hair, wavy hair, and curly hair types—can become "frizzy hair types" if you don't take the right steps to protect hair!
To combat frizz, it's so essential to use the right products and techniques.

The Best Anti-Frizz Products for Hair
The best anti-frizz products are made from real, 100% mulberry silk.
Here's a quick rundown on why silk helps keep hair frizz free:
-
Silk has many natural beauty benefits, some of which are thanks to silk proteins like sericin. Silk helps keep your hair strands and hair shaft nourished, because silk will not absorb moisture—your hair's natural oils stay in your hair where they belong!
-
Silk has 43% less friction than cotton, so when you sleep on a silk pillowcase or use silk hair accessories, it'll help you tame frizz and keep your hair shiny and smooth. Say goodbye to breakage and split ends!
The following three Blissy products are made from the highest quality silk (grade 6A) and are essential to an anti-frizz hair routine:
1) Blissy Silk Pillowcase
Sleeping on a luxurious, ultra-soft, 22-momme silk pillowcase doesn't just make you feel pampered (and oh, does it).
All that tossing and turning in your sleep affects your hair less dramatically when you're using a nearly friction-free silk pillowcase. Since you're not resting on harsh materials, you won't wake up with frizzy hair caused by breakage and tangling.
Plus, our pillowcase comes in 44 color options—you're bound to find at least one you adore!
2) Blissy Silk Scrunchie
Keep your hair soft, smooth, and fabulous by styling your hair with classy Blissy Silk Scrunchies, Blissy Silk Skinny Scrunchies, and Blissy Silk Oversized Scrunchies!
Our silk scrunchies are gentle on hair and prevent tangling. Mulberry silk also helps your hair stay hydrated and glossy.
Using non-silk hair accessories (or worse yet, a rubber band *gasp*) leads to frizz, breakage, and sad split ends—avoid all that by wearing our stylish scrunchies instead!
3) Blissy Silk Bonnet
Curly hair girls—this is the bonnet of your dreams!
If you have natural texture hair, you already know the struggle of fighting frizz. You probably already wrap your hair before bed, but if you're not using silk, you aren't getting the most out of your nighttime routine.
Wearing a silk bonnet will protect your hair all night while you sleep by preventing frizz, breakage, and tangles. It'll also preserve your hairstyle longer and keep bedhead at bay!
Keep your hair smoother and healthier with little effort, all while looking chic in our new luxe silk bonnets.
Other Effective Anti-Frizz Hair Products and Techniques
Along with switching to Blissy silk products, you should use an anti-frizz treatment for your hair and avoid certain things that damage hair.
Hair anti-frizz treatments
The following is a list of various products and treatments that aid in minimizing frizz:
-
Hair serums, like John Frieda Frizz Ease, can moisturize, tame frizz, and protect hair from humidity and heat
-
Hair oil and other natural treatments, like argan oil, coconut oil, and shea butter, are your friend
-
Try using anti-frizz shampoo and smoothing shampoos, as well as anti-frizz spray
-
Just a tiny dollop of leave-in conditioner can go a long way
-
Deep conditioning treatments can help repair damage and reduce dryness. Try a hair mask or mini keratin treatment.
-
If you have curly hair, try the Curly Girl Method!
The best anti-frizz products for hair are silicone-free. Non-water-soluble silicones lead to build-up and weigh down curls.
Tools and techniques to fight frizz
Here are some simple tips to prevent frizz:
-
Curly girls—use a wide-tooth comb to detangle damp hair. Straight-hair girls—let your hair dry a bit first.
-
Practice air drying instead of blow drying. Using a blow dryer and other hot tools damages your hair, leading to frizz. You might look fabulous when you blow dry hair, but your hair won't be happy. Gently squeeze excess moisture from your hair after washing for smooth hair.
-
Try not to use hot tools too frequently, but when you do, make sure to use heat protection, like a heat styling cream or other anti-frizz product.
Fekkai's Brilliant Gloss Multi-Tasker is a good styling cream to not only help moisturize your hair but to protect it from damaging hot tools.
