Frizzy hair is often associated with curly hair, but any hair type can become frizzy.
My mantra when it comes to hair is to keep it simple. I believe in taking a simple approach for maximum impact.
What hair needs at the most fundamental level is moisture.
If you’ve ever battled with a halo of frizz or your hair never looks glossy or shiny, it’s time to get serious about adding moisture.
Frizz occurs when the hair is dry or damaged. Dry hair is prone to breakage, leaving it vulnerable to moisture loss. The hair compensates for moisture loss by soaking up moisture from humid environments, and frizz occurs.
By ensuring the hair has a balance of moisture, you can stop frizzy hair and prevent it from reoccurring.

Identify opportunities to reduce damage to your hair. For example, switching the hairdryer to a cooler setting is one way of reducing heat damage.
You can also try drying your hair for less time. Over drying the hair is easy to do. There’s a sweet spot when drying hair with a hairdryer. It’s the point where the hair is dry to the touch. That’s the point that you should put the hairdryer down and let your hair settle.
Establish the drying sweet spot for your hair. Time how long it takes to dry your hair with a hairdryer, and then try reducing it by 30 seconds or 1 minute. Experiment to see how your hair responds if you reduce the drying time further. How your hair looks and feels will tell you how long your hair takes to dry without becoming excessively dry and frizzy.
Leave split ends unchecked, and they ride up the hair to cause breakage on the mid-lengths and towards the roots. That will result in further moisture loss, leaving hair dry and frizzy.
Get regular trims to prevent split ends.
Touching hair too much is a significant cause of breakage. Excessive styling or being too rough when you handle wet hair are factors in damaging hair. However, just day-to-day stuff like putting your hair into a ponytail and then bringing it back down again can cause damage.
Be gentle with your hair when it’s wet. Wet hair is the most vulnerable to breakage, and when hair breaks, frizz will thrive. Use a microfibre towel to gently pat the hair dry after washing.
Silicones in hair products give hair immediate shine by coating the hair. They cover the hair’s surface so successfully that long-term use can result in the hair being unable to absorb moisture from conditioners and deep conditioners. Avoid them.
I see hair styling as an opportunity to add moisture to your hair. Not only does adding moisture when you style improve styling flexibility and hold, but it also stops frizz.
My exclusive styling products add moisture with a blend of pro vitamin b5, argan oil and keratin. Tiny bubbles of keratin and argan oil target damage to seal the hair for a smooth, glossy, frizz-free finish.
From soft, wispy curtains to statement-making full fringes, your fringe says a lot—so it deserves the very best. Whether you’re styling for volume, shaping a sleek finish, or keeping it healthy and glossy, the right haircare makes all the difference. Powered by natural ingredients, Ogario London’s styling and treatment essentials are your fringe’s perfect match.

I write about all aspects of healthy, shiny hair. From preventing frizzy hair to stopping split ends and styling bob hairstyles I share my experience of how to get the best from hair.
Whether I’m working with hair, writing about hair or developing hair care products I stay true to 3 principles.
This is a principle I have adhered to all my hairdressing career and it gets the best results. I like to minimise the heat stress to hair from heated styling tools and take a simpler approach to styling. Over working the hair can leave it dry, damaged and flat. A simple approach is the best way to add volume to hair and keep hair looking and feeling smooth and shiny.
Moisture is the foundation of good hair care. Hair needs a routine of deep conditioning to stay frizz free and retain flexibility and strength. When it has moisture, hair elasticity is maintained, making hair easier to style.
Holistic in the context of hair care is about making sure we eat a healthy, balanced diet and that we feed our hair with nourishing products. Maintaining hydration in the body contributes to good quality hair growth. Using nourishing hair products ensures our hair can retain moisture.
You’ll see these principles threaded through my blogs. My goal is to share the simplest tools and techniques to give you easy ways to care for and style your hair at home.
