Summer Hair Help: Four Fantastic New Frizz Fighters (and One Awesome Old-School Standby

I’m always on the lookout for new frizz-fighters, but during the summer, my radar works overtime.

This season, I’m adding the following four potions to my arsenal of hot weather hair helpers—in addition to keeping one fail-proof option on hand at all times.

Ouidad Climate Control Frizz & Flyaway Fighter

Although it’s technically a finishing spray, I’ve been using this mist post-shower when I plan to let my hair air-dry. My curls stay defined throughout the day without feeling heavy or coated. And the smell—thanks to olive, avocado and grape oil—is light and lovely.

Fekkai Smooth Sailing Anti-Frizz Cream

This cream creates a no-holds-barred barrier between hair and humidity, leaving it fantastically frizz free. Moisturizing marine extracts keep strands hydrated and happy under the sun.

Alterna Summer Shimmer & Style Kit

The pomade in this three-piece set is great for keeping hair sleek on hot, sticky nights. It’s not lightweight—a little goes a long way—but it smooths beautifully and is perfect for dressed-up summer styles.

Ojon Rare Blend Oil Total Hair Therapy

An oil unlike any I’ve ever tried. The tiniest drop calms my coarse hair instantly and adds a natural shine. I love using it as an overnight treatment on damp hair—I wake up with the sexiest messy, yet frizz-free, bedhead.

And because it never fails, there’s always John Frieda’s Original Formula Frizz-Ease Hair Serum. Simply put, this stuff de-puffs like no other product.
