Frizz Control

Humidity. Dry hair absorbs water from the air, and Egyptian summer air has plenty of it. The answer is hydrating the hair properly, not avoiding the weather.

If it feels dry, rough and dull, moisture. If it stretches and snaps when wet, protein. If you overdo protein, hair goes stiff and straw-like, which is why alternating is safer than committing to one.

Oil seals, it doesn't hydrate. Used alone on dry hair it makes frizz look better for a few hours and changes nothing underneath. Mask first, oil second.

It smooths for a few months and then grows out, and repeated treatments come with their own damage. It's a valid choice, but it's a different decision from a care routine — and it doesn't remove the need for one.
