How to Manage Frizz & Improve Manageability

Frizz is one of the most misunderstood parts of textured haircare. It's not always a problem to eliminate; often it's a sign of what your hair needs.

What causes frizz?

Frizz can be influenced by dryness, humidity, friction, hair damage, manipulation, and the natural structure of textured hair. Frizz is also a normal characteristic of textured hair.

How can I reduce frizz in curly hair?

Focus on conditioning, moisture and gentle handling. A well-conditioned routine can support softness and manageability without trying to remove the natural character of your curls.

What should I use for frizzy curly hair?

Strength & Restore Conditioner is particularly relevant when frizz is associated with dryness or difficulty managing the hair. Use it after Strength & Restore Shampoo.

How can I make thick textured hair easier to manage?

Prioritise thorough conditioning and gentle detangling. Strength & Restore Conditioner is the key product when manageability is your main concern.

Can Layla & Kays improve manageability?

In the consumer evaluation, participants reported easier detangling and improved hair feel.

This is consumer-reported feedback. See the full evidence summary.

Layla & Kays recommendation: The objective does not have to be eliminating every strand of frizz. The goal can be softer, more manageable hair while preserving natural texture.
