Get your hair in line this busy festive season

To keep your hair looking good during the holidays we’ve pulled together the best styling products to guarantee your hair will see party season out in style

Parties, work functions and family gatherings mean washing the locks a little more than usual, which can mean dry and frizzy hair is on the way.

Be prepared this festive season with these tips and products at Choithrams.com

Why does it happen?

First you need to know what causes frizz in order to stop it.

A quick overview: dry, porous hair sucks up moisture from the humid air, which causes the hair shaft to swell and kink all over the place.

Skip it

Don’t be tempted to put a ton of hair spray on to keep your ‘do in place as it has the exact opposite effect in humid conditions.

The alcohol content in hair spray can swell up the hair cuticle, causing puffiness. Too much alcohol can leave your hair with a nasty hangover in the form of frizz.

Try these three top tips to tame the frizz this festive season.

1 Don’t over wash

In fact, if you're prone to frizz skip the daily shampoos altogether.

Curly, wavy, or kinky hair needs as much natural oil as it can get, so washing it every day will leave it dry and even more prone to frizz, try to do it every other day, or every second day if you can.

If you really have to, use dry shampoo instead as this will decrease the number of times you wash from scratch.

2 Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate

Apply moisturising and protective products to your hair while it’s wet.

That's the best time to put in a leave-in conditioner. It will penetrate the hair follicle deeper and help your hair from frizzing afterward.

3 Protect your hair from the sun

You need to think about protecting your hair from the sun as much as you think about protecting your skin.

If you don't, the sun can really damage your hair. Make sure your beach bag is loaded with at least one hair care product for sun protection.

The good news is that there are plenty of products that have SPF protection in them, as well as add-on protection sprays. We love Lee Stafford Morocco Nourishing Miracle Oil for great shine and protection.

Try a new range

The new Pantene Goodbye Summer Frizz collection has shampoo, conditioner, and oil replacement treatments that vow to keep frizz under control for up to 72 hours.

Pantene Pro-Vitamins infuse hair with moisturising ingredients inside and out to help fill pores and block frizz out, while strengthening hair against frizz-amplifying damage.

When the scales of the cuticle layer are flat and closed, hair appears smooth, shiny and feels healthy and manageable — the pinnacle of hair happiness. Give it a go!
