The frustration is real when you spend hours and dollars experimenting with products and tools to attain silky strands, only to walk outside on a humid day and watch in absolute horror as your hair goes right back to the way it was before. Sometimes it even gets worse. For some of us (hey, East Coasters!), this Summer has been particularly steamy. Rocking a seemingly electrocuted hairstyle can ruin your mood in addition to your hard work. Luckily, there are solutions, and savvy experts have them. We interviewed a slew of pros on actual products and tips to defrizz your hair, no matter the texture.

01
Shu Uemura Essence Absolue

Shu Uemura Essence Absolue

"This has to be my favorite antifrizz product. It's extremely moisturizing, but not heavy. It makes hairstyling super easy and works for every hair texture, from fine to extremely coarse. I just adjust the amount of product I use according to the hair texture, using less for fine hair and a little more for coarser hair." — Cristina B, stylist at Rita Hazan Salon in New York

Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream

"This product is great for slightly wavy hair to kinky curly hair. I use anything from one pump to a generous amount depending on how thick the hair is, applying roots to ends or midshaft to ends. It is great to mix with Moroccanoil Treatment for extra nourishment." — Scott King

Moroccan Oil Curl Defining Cream ($34)

03

Suave Professionals Luxe Styling Anti Humidity Hairspray

"I like to polish off styles with this spray to keep them safe from frizz. This superfine mist creates a brushable, frizz-safe hold for up to 72 hours so it's especially perfect for day-to-night looks!" — Jenny Cho

Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil

"I love to put a few drops of this oil in hair before a blow-dry to fight humidity and keep flyaways to a minimum. A drop or two in dry hair is helpful as well — a little goes a long way!" — John Ruggiero

Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil ($40)

05
Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Styling Cream

Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Styling Cream

"I like using this product in either wet or dry hair for all hair types! It won't break the bank, nor weigh the hair down with that silicon/oily feel you can get from other antifrizz products. Start by working the product midway down the hair shaft, pull through the ends, then style as you normally would. Try and stay away from your roots with these kinds of products because you naturally have oil there." — Joshua Ristaino

Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Styling Cream ($37)

06
Ouai Haircare Finishing Cream

Ouai Haircare Finishing Cream

"This cream is amazing! It's like lotion for hair. I use it to tame flyaways, and it's great for adding a bit of texture. Apply a dime-sized amount to dry/styled hair to tame frizz at the root or to add a bit of texture to your ends." — Scott King

Ouai Haircare Finishing Cream ($24)

07

R+Co Foil Frizz + Static Control Spray

"This is a great finishing spray for all textures of hair. It's light, so it doesn't weigh hair down unlike some products, and it also adds a great sheen to the hair." — Eduardo Ponce

R+Co Foil Frizz + Static Control Spray ($27)

08
Kevin.Murphy Easy.Rider Anti Frizz Creme

Kevin.Murphy Easy.Rider Anti Frizz Creme

"I love using this as a base when creating smooth, bouncy blowouts and loose waves. Just apply to damp hair, blow-dry, style and you're ready to go. It's super light with a flexible hold." — Eduardo Ponce

Kevin.Murphy Easy.Rider Anti Frizz Creme ($39)

09

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Humidity Hairspray

"I love the Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine line during the Summer because it makes hair easier to work with and keeps humidity out to prevent frizz. It also gives hair incredible shine without weighing it down. This hair spray is one of my key products. I use it for the last veil before a celebrity leaves for a red carpet on warm, and especially humid, days. One spritz and I know their hair won't frizz or move on the way to the event." — Tommy Buckett

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Humidity Hairspray ($4)

Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray

Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray

"I cannot live without this product in my kit. I love using it for red carpet to prevent flyaways and frizz. It's especially great on curly hair. It puts a lightweight barrier around the hair, and moisture can't get in. I like to have my clients toss their head upside down while I spray it all over. That way I get the underneath of the hair and close to the neck where it can get hotter, and holds humidity." — Ristaino

Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray ($39)

11
Kérastase Nutritive Oleo-Relax Serum

Kérastase Nutritive Oleo-Relax Serum

"I love using this smoothing serum to discipline fine dry, frizzy, unmanageable hair. Its softening formula will leave hair silky and more manageable, whilst boasting incredible shine. After long beach or pool days, the hair can tend to get super frizzy and dry, so this is one of my go-tos for clients." — Jayson Medina

Kérastase Nutritive Oleo-Relax Serum ($38)

Milbon Signature Luminous Bodifying Oil

Milbon Signature Luminous Bodifying Oil

"This oil comes in three formulas — one for each of fine, medium, and coarse hair. What's unique about this product is that it's a volumizing oil. It smooths out the hair and gives it lift, without making it look or feel greasy at all. Use it before and after you blow-dry for a sleek, frizz-free finish." — Paul Cucinello, celebrity hairstylist/creative director of Chris Chase Salon NYC

Milbon Signature Luminous Bodifying Oil ($36)
