Quick and easy frizz fighter!

A fine tooth comb! I was noticing that after I'd condition and detangle with my wide tooth comb, i'd still have some hairs that were "hung up" on the others. Not many, but they later became frizz after styling!

So I took a finer tooth comb (just your average standard drug store comb) and used it after using my wide one. (Still with plenty of condish, of course!!)

I had great results!! Had to scrunh water in after of course, and even add a little more condish, but it worked great!

Not sure this would work on tighter curls (though as long as you use lots of conditioner and water, your clumps should come immediately back!) or on coarser hair, but it's worth a shot!

I have fine, dense, long hair, just FYI.

Ooh, I'm going to have to try this! No matter what I do, I have a layer of frizz on my canopy. Just gotta find a comb...

I found that keeping your hands wet while applying product helps, too. Sometimes when scrunching in product hairs will stick to your hands, and keeping them wet helps prevent that, and therefore frizz!

I wonder if a Denman would do the same as a fine comb? I see lots of folks using one or the other to re-clump.

I find that my Denman and/or my tangle teazer work. Lately I've been smoothing strands of hair all over my head after using the Denman and my hair has had no frizz.

It works for me too. I've got very fine, naturally 'fluffy' hair and it got steadily fluffier the longer I tried CG techniques. Eventually I ditched the diffuser and went back to cones, which helped a bit, but I was still much fluffier than when I started CG.

I finally realised that, although I'd always used a wide-toothed comb/brush I'd also usually combed through at least once a day with a fine-toothed comb. Went back to doing that and my hair immediately reverted to its normal, and more acceptable, level of fluff.

I'm now having even better results brushing through wet hair lightly with a Denman Tangle Tamer before I scrunch it dry.

The Tangler Teezer made my hair smooth but straight and flat, the Tangle Tamer, used sparingly, makes it smooth and organised without wrecking the waves.
