With later sunsets and beach days in full swing, we’re loving all things Summer 2025. And while we love South Shore Summer days, they come with a topic as controversial as pineapple on pizza:
Humidity.
And while some people enjoy the dewy-skinned effects, the extra moisture in the air often leads to our least favorite thing to see after a trip to the salon: Frizz.
Fortunately, many products are now available to fight this timeless issue, including some in-salon services for long lasting effects. In this article, we’ll give you an overview of why frizz happens and what products we recommend to keep your locks looking sleek & shiny this summer!
First - How do Anti-Frizz Products Work?
Anti-frizz hair products work by addressing the underlying causes of frizz, which typically include lack of moisture, humidity, and/or damaged or porous hair cuticles. Here's a breakdown of how these products combat frizz and improve hair smoothness and manageability:
Sealing the Hair Cuticle
The hair cuticle is the outermost layer of each hair strand, made of overlapping cells like roof shingles. When it's smooth and flat, hair looks shiny and feels soft. But when the cuticle is raised (due to heat damage, dryness, or chemical processing), moisture can enter and cause frizz.
How anti-frizz products help:
Silicones (e.g., dimethicone) and natural oils (e.g., argan, camellia, or coconut) create a smooth coating over the hair shaft.
This coating helps seal the cuticle, preventing moisture from penetrating and swelling the strand, which causes frizz.
Restoring Moisture and Hydration
Dry hair is more porous and prone to frizz because it seeks moisture from the air. Well-moisturized hair is less likely to absorb excess humidity.
How anti-frizz products help:
Ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and shea butter attract and retain moisture in the hair.
Leave-in conditioners and serums often deliver long-lasting hydration, reducing dryness and frizz.
Blocking Humidity
Humidity is one of the biggest contributors to frizz. When moisture from the air enters the hair shaft, it causes swelling and disarray of the cuticle.
How anti-frizz products help:
Humidity-blocking agents form a protective barrier around the hair to keep excess moisture out.
Some products, like anti-humidity sprays or smoothing serums, contain polymers and lightweight silicones that resist moisture intrusion.
Repairing Damage
Damaged hair has a rougher surface, making it more susceptible to frizz and breakage.
How anti-frizz products help:
Proteins such as keratin, wheat protein, and silk amino acids help strengthen and rebuild the hair shaft.
Repair-focused treatments smooth the surface and reduce the porosity that leads to frizz.
Enhancing Hair Manageability and Style Control
Frizz often results in flyaways and unruly texture. Anti-frizz stylers help keep hair in place.
How anti-frizz products help:
Styling creams, gels, and mousses provide hold and definition, especially for curly or textured hair.
They allow better control and shape, helping hair look polished and stay in place throughout the day.

Other Frizz-Control Options
Try a Gloss
A hair gloss is a demi-permanent, in-salon treatment that acts like a topcoat for your hair. It smooths the hair cuticle, enhances color, and adds shine without causing damage. Suitable for all hair types, it gradually fades over time, making it a low-commitment option for those looking to refresh their hair's appearance. Check out the different types of glosses and options available in this article here.
In-Salon Treatment
An in-salon hair treatment is a professional-grade service designed to deeply nourish, repair, and enhance the health and appearance of your hair beyond what typical at-home products can achieve. These treatments work by delivering concentrated ingredients—like proteins, keratin, or botanical extracts—directly into the hair shaft, often using heat or specialized application techniques to ensure maximum absorption and effectiveness.
For those seeking smoother, frizz-free hair, Tease Hair Boutique offers several standout options: the Brazilian Blowout and Keratin Complex Treatment deliver long-lasting smoothness and reduced styling time; the Inca Glow Frizz Treatment offers a formaldehyde-free, organic alternative; and the Kérastase Fusio-Dose Treatment provides a quick, customized boost of hydration and shine. Each of these treatments helps tame frizz while improving overall hair health and manageability.
