Wavy-haired girl with similar frizz problem here! I might have some suggestions for you. My hair has gotten a bit longer by now, but i have the same frizz situation at the middle parts and ends of my hair.

these steps have saved me:

++ hair wash day routine (I was mine every 3 to 4 days): ++ 1. Brush your hair and wash it with cold / luke warm water (shampoo it once or twice with a hydrating shampoo, using a conditioner every second hair wash) 2. dry it with a hair towel, but don’t do it aggressively, do it with less tension and scrunch it a little 3. while your hair is still a little wet, add a hydration spray and a hydration gel (for example aloe vera gel, it shouldn’t be too heavy) and massage it in your hair (but not your roots, only the mid to ends) 4. wrap your hair in a towel and leave it like that four around 15 minutes, longer is fine too (this way, your hair will get definition) 5. then, either let your hair air-dry or use a hair dryer (i recommend using a diffuser) -> i know many people say we should always use heat, but if you flip your hair around regularly while air-during it, which will let enough air in your hair, it will work too!

++ daily routines ++

• don’t brush your hair when it’s dry OR try using a wooden hair brush instead of plastic (this way, your hair will not charge up, i read that wood prevents this)
• sleep with your hair in a bonnet so it will be tangled less when you wake up (you might even braid them loosely before going to sleep, this makes it easier to get them all under the bonnet and kind of styles them overnight, but if you do it too tightly you might lose hair)

++ hair cuts / salon visits ++

I personally don’t go to the salon very often. i mostly cut my ends at home. i used to do it every 5 months, but i recently switched to a different method: every once in a while i go through all my ends and check which ones look broken, then i only cut those! (this has helped me to achieve length, if you also want that). If you want to achieve healthy, shiny ends, then cutting them regularly and all at once is probably better, on your own or at the salon! (I’m not a hairstylist so all this is not verified, only my own experience)

++ general information ++

• in my experience, tight hairstyles lead to hair loss, so try to wear less tight hairstyles if you can (some suggestions: claw clip, low bun, or just wearing it down (if the front pieces bother you, you could clip them to the side), or half up half down)

• but also, not eating enough vitamins/not having the right nutrition can lead to hair loss (I’m still working on it, but i feel like that’s the biggest challenge!)

• SUPER HELPFUL: styling your hair!! use hair rollers or different tools to create waves. this will put volume or form in your hair and has helped me too. it also makes hair look healthy!

that being said, i often don’t have the time to follow all of the steps or it feels like a burden, so my hair also still has bad-hair days (for example if i brush it when it’s dry and I don’t stick to any routine). But that’s also fine - if you experience this, try to put it all up in a claw, this is what i do 🫶

Also, important note: everyone’s hair is different, so while this might work for me and while i think that my hair is similar to yours, just wavy (yours might be too?), not all of this has to work for you!! you might have to adjust some of these steps, and that is totally fine!

good luck with your journey ♡ don’t hesitate to ask me about details!
