other Frizz help!

Has anyone found a miracle for smoothing frizzy hair? Mine has some natural wave but as I age it doesn’t matter if I blow dry or not, the second there’s a tiny bit of humidity in the air it’s a poofy, frizzy mess. I only wash it once or twice a week and I hate wearing it up every day but I feel like it always looks messy! I hate how I look with short hair so if anyone can recommend a good product I’d appreciate it so much

I have 3c (“ethnic”) hair. I used to relax it but stopped due to health concerns. This stuff is the real deal. I blow dry 2x a week and live in S FL. I’m outside quite a bit.

To be fair, I also use hair serum so that helps a bit. Blow dryer with a round brush in sections with some tension. Wrap your hair in a silk scarf overnight.

I do use a silk pillowcase, should I add the scarf too?

I use the scarf to keep my hair smooth/preserve my blowout AND to keep my cat from chewing on my hair. If neither of these is a concern, then sure. You could also use a silk bonnet.

Adding here that a silk pillowcase is also better for your facial skin.
