If you have curly hair, as do I, then you know the extent to which one truly needs to find products that are specifically designed to treat, nourish and style our naturally unruly tresses. One of my greatest discoveries has been Ouidad because they truly are the curl experts! Here are a few of my recent discoveries from their amazing range of gems for curly hair:
Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Defrizzing Shampoo ($22.00 for 8.5 oz. from Ouidad): This effective shampoo thoroughly cleanses the hair without stripping it in the least bit. The sulfate-free formula is gentle, and does not rob hair of vital moisture. Additionally, it nourishes the hair, fights frizz and leaves hair silky smooth. This is a wonderful shampoo if you have wavy or curly hair that is prone to frizz and fly-aways!According to Ouidad,
For curls, once frizz sets in, there's no going back (at least without re-washing your hair). For truly frizz-free, smooth, and shiny curls, you have to prevent frizz before humidity wreaks havoc on your hair.
With our new Advanced Climate Control® Defrizzing Shampoo, the fight against frizz starts in the shower. This unique sulfate-free formula keeps hair's cuticle sealed to lock nourishing moisture in, and frizz-causing humidity out. Our advanced blend of emollients (Shea Butter, Murumuru Butter) and Ceramides helps repair the cuticle and smooth its surface. Our high-performance Anti-Frizz Nano Technology with a protein derived from silk seals the cuticle to form a barrier against frizz. A dedicated UV filter helps protect against damage from environmental aggressors.
The result: defined, shiny, controlled curls-in any climate.
Directions: Gently massage through wet hair. Rinse thoroughly and follow with Advanced Climate Control® Defrizzing Conditioner. Style curls with Advanced Climate Control® Detangling Heat Spray and Heat & Humidity Gel for lasting frizz protection.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Defrizzing Conditioner ($24.00 for 8.5 oz. from Ouidad): This is an ultra-emollient and moisturizing conditioner that hydrates dry hair, combats frizz and fly-aways, detangles and leaves curls soft, smooth and shiny! It has a wonderful light fragrance, but it does fade quickly.
According to Ouidad,
It's a fact: Dry hair equals frizzy hair. That's because curls that lack moisture look to absorb it from anywhere they can get it-exposing them to frizz-causing humidity in the air. For truly frizz-free curls, you need care that helps balance their moisture levels.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat & Humidity Gel ($26.00 for 8.5 oz. from Ouidad): This lightweight gel protects hair from heated styling tools, fights frizz and fly-aways, and it offers weightless hold while defining curls. It doesn't flake, weigh hair down, or leave hair crunchy and unnatural looking and feeling. Most often I apply it to towel-dried hair, and then allow my hair to dry naturally.
According to Ouidad,
Humidity: It's every curl's nightmare. That's because curly hair's unique structure exposes its cuticle. When humidity gets in, curls expand with unwanted volume and look frizzy, undefined, and dull.
Our bestselling styler, Advanced Climate Control® Heat & Humidity Gel, gets you out of hair-raising situations. Use it to seal every strand, lock in moisture, and lock out humidity. Wheat Protein and pliable styling polymers form a weightless flexible lattice that expands as heat or humidity rises to hold curl definition without frizz. Our high-performance Anti-Frizz Nano Technology with a protein derived from silk seals the cuticle to keep essential moisture in and humidity out. A dedicated UV filter helps protect against damage from environmental aggressors.
The result: Flexible hold that won't leave hair crunchy, sticky, or weighed down. Frizz-free, perfectly defined curls-in any climate.
Directions: Apply using Ouidad's Rake & Shake technique. Divide damp hair into sections. Rake a nickel-size amount of gel through each section, using fingertips to seal and smooth the cuticle from roots to ends. When finished, hold the ends of hair in each section and shake to create curls. Let hair air-dry or blow-dry with a diffuser.
Expert Tip: Fighting frizz starts in the shower with Advanced Climate Control® Defrizzing Shampoo and Conditioner for better curl definition and longer lasting frizz protection.
Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Butylene Glycol, Polyquaternium-28, Sericin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Panthenol, Polyquaternium-7, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Actinidia Chinensis (Kiwi) Fruit Extract, Lawsonia Inermis (Henna) Extract, Wheat Amino Acids, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein/PVP Crosspolymer, PEG-60 Almond Glycerides, Glycerin, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride, Behentrimonium Chloride, Cetrimonium Chloride, PPG-26-Buteth-26, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, VP/DMAPA Acrylates Copolymer, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Hexylene Glycol, Caprylyl Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Potassium Sorbate, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance (Parfum).
Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Detangling Heat Spray ($24.00 for 8.5 oz. from Ouidad): I am thoroughly obsessed with this detangling spray. It effectively fights humidity– which leads to unwanted frizz and fly-aways– and it moisturizes and detangles even the most unruly curly hair. While it is ultra-effective in protecting hair against the ravages of heat styling, it is also remarkably effective as a nourishing and hydrating detangler for hair that is allowed to dry naturally.

Our Advanced Climate Control® Detangling Heat Spray primes curls to better resist frizz. Use it to seal every strand, fight tangles, and make curls more manageable. Our high-performance Anti-Frizz Nano Technology with a protein derived from silk seals the cuticle to form a barrier that locks in moisture and locks out humidity. Natural oils (Grapeseed, Sweet Almond, Macadamia Nut, Coconut, Argan, and Safflower) nourish and moisturize curls, while a dedicated UV filter helps protect against damage from heat styling and environmental aggressors.
The result: defined, shiny, controlled curls-in any climate.
Directions: Divide damp hair into sections. Spray on curls from mid-lengths to ends, and use a wide-tooth comb to detangle hair. Follow with Advanced Climate Control® Heat & Humidity Gel.
