When dry locks are desperately seeking moisture, hair goes haywire. If you’re forever fighting frizz, tame your unruly curls by quenching their thirst. What you need are products that will moisturize and shape your curls by weighing hair down just enough to avoid leaving your locks limp. This regimen should leave you with smooth, Nicole Kidman-esque curls in no time. Bye, bye poodle hair!

Shampoo with Frederic Fekkai’s Luscious Curls Shampoo ($20) or Davines Love’s Lovely Curl Enhancing Shampoo ($8), Then condition with Frederic Fekkai’s Luscious Curls Conditioner ($20) or Philip B’s Deep Conditioning Crème Rinse ($25).

Before styling, apply

John Freida Frizz Ease’s Dream Curl’s Curl Perfecter ($6) or Aveda’s Be Curly Curl Enhancing Lotion ($20) to wet hair, or in extremely hot and humid weather, try
Ouidad’s Climate Control Gel ($19). Once hair is dry, spritz some of Phyto’s Phytocurl Curl Defining Spray ($24) or Redken’s Fresh Curls Curl Boost ($17) onto hair, then scrunch hair with your hands to boost curls. Lastly, smooth unruly ends with Oscar Blandi’s Jasmine Oil Serum ($23).

If you’ll be blow-drying your hair straight, protect it form the heat’s damaging effects by spritzing a liberal amount of Stephen Knoll’s Hydro Repair Mist Styling Lotion ($4) or John Freida Frizz Ease’s 5 Minute Manager Blow-Dry Lotion ($5) on damp hair. Next, apply a nickel-sized drop of Warren-Tricomi Style’s Blow-Dry Serum ($15) or Phyto’s Phytodefrisant Botanical Hair Relaxing Balm ($24). Once hair is dry, prevent hair from frizzing or curling up by misting on some of Got 2b’s Dazzling Shine Spray ($5) or smoothing on a few drops of JONATHAN Product’s Finish Shine Polishing Gloss ($26)

To maintain hair’s softness and manageability, once a week, apply a hydrating hair mask like Ouidad’s Deep Treatment ($30) or Infusium’s Power Pac 3-Minute Intensive Treatment ($5).
