Before we look at the hair system care steps you can take at home, we’ll first be looking at what causes frizz in the first place.
What exactly is frizz in a hair system?
Frizzy hair is when the cuticle layer of the hair strands become raised, which results in too much moisture entering the hair resulting in swolen hair strands. These swollen strands in your hairpiece are what makes your hair look dry and frizzy instead of silky and smooth.
Does frizz affect all hair types in the same way?
The short answer is that frizz doesn’t affect hair types in the same way. Curly hair systems are more prone to having frizz than straight hair systems because curly hair is naturally dryer than straight hair. If you have a curly hair system, take care to be extra vigilant in your care routine to reduce the chance of frizzy hair strands in your hair system.
What causes frizz in hairpieces?
Frizz in your hair system is usually a result of a lack of the oils that usually cover the strands of a hair. In growing hair, this isn’t usually an issue, since the required oils are naturally produced by the body.
It goes without saying that hair systems are not able to replenish lost moisture and oils alone, they require a little extra help usually in the form of a leave in conditioner. Read more about how leave-in conditioners are the key to a soft hair system and should be a part of your hairpiece care routine.
Over-styling, over-drying, or over-shampooing your hair system are all typical causes of frizz in your hair system. If your hair system experiences a combination of all three, it’s a sure recipe for a frizzy hair system.
