The Truth About Frizz And Humidity

Why Frizz Happens - Especially In NZ

Humidity is a major hair challenge in New Zealand, especially in coastal regions or rainy seasons. When moisture in the air seeps into the hair shaft, strands swell and disrupt the cuticle’s smooth surface - resulting in frizz, flyaways, and loss of control. Even hair that’s normally sleek can transform into a frizzy halo, making styling tricky and polishing your look a struggle.

Smoothing Solutions That Work

The secret to fighting frizz is keeping hair hydrated and protected. Start with a moisture-rich shampoo and conditioner, then use a smoothing serum or anti-humidity cream before styling. Natural oils such as argan and coconut help lock in moisture and create a barrier against humidity. Avoid excessive heat, harsh brushing, and towel rubbing, which all amplify frizz. For best results, use a microfibre towel after washing and incorporate regular deep treatments in your routine.
