    Make sure you keep it moisturized and try not to touch it, especially while it is drying. Frizz often results from disrupting the natural curl pattern.

    You can use a relaxer or keratin treatment for a semi-permanent straightening. However, there is no way to intentionally change your natural curl pattern.

    When your hair gets frizzy while straightening, it may be that you aren't using enough tension. Try drying with a natural bristle brush and working in small sections, moving the dryer from roots to ends.

    I suggest using a really hydrating shampoo and conditioner that will put hydration back into your hair. If your hair is still frizzy, try combing your hair in the shower after you condition as the water is still running over it. When you get out of the shower, try drying your hair with an old t-shirt or a microfiber towel and adding a control cream.

    Using shampoo and conditioner with a lot of sulfates and parabens can really dry out your hair. Often times these products contain an aggressive cleanser that will break down and dry out the hair and shouldn't be used daily. Try a hydrating shampoo and conditioner instead.

    How do I repair my hair from split and dry ends?
    Community Answer
    A good way to repair your hair is to stop using heat tools and get regular hair cuts. It's also important to use a wide-tooth comb and brush your hair gently. Treat it with care. Leave-in conditioner is also a good option for hair repair.
