4. Dry Smartly

Air-drying often leads to uneven curl formation and more frizz. Instead, use a diffuser attachment on low heat and low speed. Invert your head and gently lift roots while diffusing to boost volume. Avoid touching hair while it dries — scrunching too early can disrupt curl clumps.

5. Sleep and Protect

Frizz often starts at night. Swap cotton pillowcases for silk or satin, which reduce friction and moisture loss. Alternatively, “pineapple” your hair by gathering it loosely on top of your head with a scrunchie. For extra protection, try a satin bonnet or scarf.

6. Fight Humidity and Hard Water

In humid weather, use anti-humidity serums or gels with polymers that form a protective barrier around the hair. To combat hard water, install a shower filter or rinse hair with diluted apple cider vinegar (1 part ACV to 3 parts water) once a week to remove mineral buildup.

With the right care, curly hair can be healthy, defined, and full of life. In 2024, British women are no longer trying to “tame” their curls — they’re learning to love them, one frizz-free day at a time.
