I have "Mediterranean Hair", a term I use as a nice way to indicate that my hair is thick, somewhat coarse, and wavy. While this may sound like a good thing, it can actually be a little difficult to manage. I deal with frizz throughout the year. In the winter, the dry conditions cause my hair to frizz. In the summer, the hot and humid weather also causes it to frizz. It's a constant battle.

Here is a list of some natural hair care products that I use on a regular basis to control my frizz. Even though my hair is of a particular type, these suggestions will work for any hair type.

Natural Leave-In Conditioner

This is one of my all-time favorite products. I use it year round, but it is especially helpful to manage frizzy hair that is the result of dry, winter air. Find a product that contains natural ingredients. The Body Shop has a product that I use a lot called Amlika Leave In Conditioner.

Olive Oil or Coconut Oil

I also use a small dab of olive oil or coconut oil in my hair to help control frizzies. I usually do it when my hair is dry because I use this tactic as a last resort. If the products I tried to use didn't help, I'd reach for the oil. I either use the olive oil or coconut oil that I cook with or I purchase the Coconut Hair Shine from The Body Shop.

Natural Frizz Treatments

I've also seen some natural frizz treatments in the form of either a serum, cream, or balm. I personally like the serums because they tend to be lighter than cream or balm. If my hair were very dry, I'd probably be more likely to use a cream or a balm.

Use Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner

One of the biggest tips I can think of is to make sure to use moisturizing shampoos and conditioners even if your hair is not dry. The extra moisture helps keep hair under control and banishes frizz.

Use Frizz Control Styling Products

If frizz is really a problem, when you do purchase styling products make sure that they are not only natural, but that they are specially formulated to help with frizz. There are a lot of great products on the market.

When it comes to treating frizz, there are a lot of things you can do. These suggestions can be used on any hair type.
