Our roundup of frizzy hair shampoos has one for everyone, including drugstore picks, high-end beauty brands, and everything in between. You'll be on your way to silky-smooth locks with these formulas rich in argan oil, emollients, cocoa and shea butters, as well as other smoothing, frizz-fighting ingredients. If you have color-treated hair, there's a frizz-control shampoo for you, too. Simply choose any of the sulfate-free picks on this list for long-lasting color protection.
But before you add any of these shampoos to your cart, it's important to consider the root cause (pun intended!) of your frizziness. There are many factors that worsen frizzy hair. Shelly Aguirre, a stylist at Maxine Salon in Chicago, tells ThePioneerWoman.com that the main cause of frizzy hair is moisture—and that can mean either too much or too little of it. "Humidity causes your hair to hold moisture," Shelly says, "and therefore it gets frizzy." If you think too much moisture is the culprit behind your frizzy hair, choose one of several shampoos here that specifically target humidity. On the other hand, if your hair is dry or damaged, go with an extra nourishing and moisturizing shampoo to remedy this.
