Has anyone successfully fixed the weird frizz that sticks out at random angles, even when hair is greasy?

Does anyone else have this frizz that sticks out at random angles and doesn’t go away even with brushing/oily hair? It’s not just new growth, but the last 1-3 inches of some hair strands or even the middle of the strand that just refuses to lay down on my head. Putting oils or creams on actually makes it worse somehow. My hair gets greasy after about a day and a half, but I try to only wash it every other day. I use a clarifying shampoo 1x a week, a regular lightweight hydrating shampoo the other days, a lightweight hydrating conditioner, and will do pre-shower hair oiling every week or so. I don’t use heat with my hair and am very gentle with it—I sleep in a silk bonnet and have a watersticks water softener for my shower. I get a trim every 6-8 weeks. I don’t dye it. Even when it is wet right out of the shower it already starts to frizz. It is almost impressive how determined my hair is to be this way.

I am only in my 20s and don’t have any health issues. Even brushing it gently does not smooth the frizz. Can anyone help? This frizz is the most stable thing in my life right now which is NOT what i want 😭😂 I

Cowlick help

Looking for any and all advice for this thin fine hair girly. I’m on a hair care journey (abbey yung method like so many others!) and seeing results in terms of healthiness and shine. My hair has always been thin but it’s become much more fine postpartum.

However, I have always had this super pesky, ugly, Harry Potter scar looking cowlick in the back of my head. I’m used to only getting it to be hidden/covered when my hair is freshly washed (and it showing up in all its glory the next day), but today I showered and washed and this is what it looked like after.

Looking for any tips outside of teasing the hair around it (I try this sometimes) or adding a scalp color powder stuff (I have this already).

Thank you!!

Mid thigh length hair in a French braid!

I always get asked how I wear my mid thigh lenght hair and this is it 85% of the time. Just a regular French braid because that’s one of the only styles that will stay! I‘ve been going back and forth on cutting it to make it more manageable and so it won’t get in the sink or trapped under my husband in the night and almost hang me when I try to turn over lol. I love it when it’s freshly washed and braided, but when I’m actually doing the braiding while trying to get ready to go somewhere is when I strongly consider getting my scissors! 🤣

Short hair is making it feel fuller

I cut about 8 inches off my hair two months ago and it is like a gateway drug because I just cut a bunch more off! It feels so much fuller and I am super happy. Especially because I just had a bigTE episode and lost a bunch of hair.

Hi everyone, I’m new in this sub. My hair is like a light ash brown and straight. I was originally looking for products cuz I can’t stand my hair anymore like I wanna cry every time I look at it and touch it.

Need advice on what haircut to get

I’m really tempted to get a bob/shaggy layered bob. I struggle with visualizing it on myself so need advice! First two photos are me now, next three are the inspo and last three are me edited with a straight bob no layers. Please let me know what you think! For context I don’t want the exact bob in the edited photos because it doesn’t really match my style having no layers! Thank you:) I would be happy keeping my current haircut but just kinda want something different. I also would like to keep my bangs as they are:)

Are there ANY FUCKING DECENT HAIRDRESSERS ON THIS ENTIRE PLANET 😭 💔

You all know what happened. I just need comfort from people who understand.

I waited 18 months for a haircut because I was so afraid of this happening, yet again

I'm devastated. I can't find the strength to message her to explain that she needs to fix it. It took so much strength to go in the first place. I'm just so fucking gutted. I want to shrivel up and disappear.

Are there any swimmers here? Need advice!

I’m starting swimming lessons on a weekly basis, and I’m quite worried about the damage the chlorine will do to my hair.

I swim yearly in the Mediterranean, and my hair’s health excels in salt water but, I have no idea what damage indoor swimming might do to it. Granted it’s only once a week, fine hair is so unpredictable and gets damaged so easily.

What should I expect? I haven’t been in a swimming pool since I was a child and, I’m in the middle of my hair growth journey so I have no idea what my hair will feel like afterwards!

Does anyone have any tips or advice on what to do to prevent any breakage or damage to the hair? :)

Underwhelmed with fine, but mostly healthy hair

I’ve had long hair pretty much my entire life, I really can’t tell anymore if I like it or not. Am I blind from living with it so long, or is it really just kind of mid? By no means is it thick (never really has been since puberty), it tangles easily and doesn’t stay silky (see pic, usually is in some stage of mild mess), and is generally underwhelming to me.

Do I just cut it? Is there some product I’m missing that’d make it better in some way? I’ve tried so many products and been let down with every single one that I just shampoo and occasionally condition now.

Please help my hair feel like a feature and less bland all around 🥲I want to love it and instead it feels like a burden I am emotionally attached to

I guess now I know why my hair is always so frizzy.

Someone posted the bowl method and I just tried it and I think I might have wavy hair. But it’s still super frizzy at the roots. Any advice is welcome!

u/mommydeer — 3 days ago

Fine hairstyle recommendations please!

Open to any recommendations on how I can get my hair cut or styled! It's very fine, there is more regrowth at the roots to about 5cm (I have low ferritin but working on increasing it!) but nothing at the ends. I hate how it looks currently and don't recognise myself in the mirror!

Help! I’m tired of my flat, lifeless hair and need a change

I feel like I don’t know how to style my hair and just don’t like how it lays so flat and boring (and accentuates my five-head). My super straight, always knotty hair doesn’t hold a curl well (I’m also kinda lowkey when it comes to hair tools). I use the JVN pre-wash scalp oil and wash every three days, using olaplex shampoo and conditioner and their hair oil. Very rarely do I use a drier, instead I use JVN air dry cream. Batiste powder/spray in between washes. Also would like to keep growing it, willing to cut just a lil’ length off.
Please help a girl out with any advice!

how is the Pantene miracle rescue 10-1 leave in conditioner spray?

I need a new leave in conditioner spray- I was using pureology but just not liking it. I tried some coconut oil spray and it left my hair greasy. I may try "it's a 10" but thinking maybe this pantene 10 in one spray- has anyone tried it for fine hair?

Oily hair hacks PLEASE

Hellooo I’m new to this sub, but I need some help with my hair.

My hair is very fine and I have to wash it at least once a day or it gets really oily. I also have a really bad cowlick in the back of my hair that gets a little crazy if I sleep on it and idk how to fix this and am tired of washing my hair every day. My hair also gets super super frizzy, even if I blow dry it.

I genuinely get so insecure when my hair is even slightly oily so I just wash it alllll the time. I’m so jealous of all my friends who go days between washes and still look amazing. If anyone has any suggestions, pleasseeee help!!!

Shampoo recs needed (fine, but alot of it!)

Hi! I really need a new shampoo and conditioner. My hair is fine but I have a lot of it. My main issue is my roots getting oily easy and I just feel like my hair gets weighed down. I’ve tried the following and they didn’t do much for me:

Redken all soft (it irritated my scalp)
Amika (made me shed my hair)
Matrix food for soft (added to my oily hair)
Redken volume injection (makes my hair dry and knotty)

I’m thinking of trying Aveeno.

Let me know your thoughts! TIA

Non-ionic thermal brush, what do you like?

What have you found that you like? It seems to be difficult to find thermal brushes without ionic technology or with the option to toggle it off.
