Summer is perfect and we love it! Yet what it causes in our heads, we wish we could avoid. And especially this effect created by the combination of heat and humidity. The freeze, I mean. It sucks!
According to the New York Times, Jen Atkin is the most influential hairstylist in the world. She’s also the darling of the Kardashians, the Hadid’s, Katy Perry, Chrissy Teigen and countless other A-listers. Of course, she herself has been confronted with the problem of frizzing and has dealt with it successfully. She has the ways and she shares them with us!
“I have some physical DIY that I swear by,” she said in a recent interview. “Apply a generous amount of coconut oil to the hair and sleep with it or leave it on for a few hours during the day – it will provide moisture and shine to the hair, and counteract the effects of humidity. Also, avocados aren’t just for eating, they do wonders for hair. Simply mash two ripe avocados in a bowl until well mixed and massage this ‘paste’ into your hair, put on a bath cap and leave it on for 15-20 minutes – voila!” said Atkin.
As for the one product we should always use, she was unequivocal: “ALWAYS use a heat protection product! This creates a protective film from UV radiation and at the same time moisturizes the hair.
Alternatively, you can apply OUAI Treatment Masque” to your hair.
Atkin is the creator of the hair brand OUAI, which you can find exclusively at Sephora.
While finally, the famous hairstylist added: “I also swear by hair balm – take a small amount and gently massage it into your hair to calm unruly frizz.”
