Frizz in the hair – a phenomenon that we have to struggle with from time to time! Here you can find out where the frizz comes from and what you can do about it.
How is frizz created?
A moment ago your hair was well-groomed and supple – and suddenly it’s sticking out in all directions? Then it’s probably Frizz! But what does that actually mean? ‘Frizz’ comes from English and means that the hair frizzes. The hair looks dull and brittle and stands up. The cause: The outer layer of hair – the cuticle, also known as the cuticle – is normally tight, similar to a closed pine cone. This makes the hair look nice and shiny.
Will the However, if the cuticle layer is damaged by external influences, the hair scales stand up. This in turn leads to dry, brittle hair. To counteract the loss of moisture, the hair absorbs moisture from the environment, for example when it rains or when the air humidity is high. If this moisture accumulates under the hair scales, this leads to frizzy hair.
Frizz: This damages the cuticle of the hair
- hair structure: Anyone who has naturally wavy, frizzy or curly hair has more problems with frizz than straight hair.
- sunbathing: The sun dries out the hair and promotes frizz.
- Hair Dye: Frequent coloring contributes to roughening the hair structure.

- Electrostatic charge: Hats and sweaters ensure that the hair becomes charged. With the lack of moisture, the tension cannot be dissipated … the result: flying hair!
- heating air: Dry, heated air in the rooms and wet, cold weather outside offer the ideal conditions for frizz.
