Hair Awards 2021: Best Hair Treatments To Combat Dryness, Damage And Frizz
Shampoo commercial worthy locks, here we come
Ever wondered why your hair tends to look smoother, tamer and all around better when you’re overseas – strolling along the Seine in Paris or window shopping in Gangnam, Seoul? Yet in Singapore, hair is frizzy and flyaways are aplenty. The culprit is humidity. While the moisture in the air is better for our skin, it tends to cause our tresses to swell, turning straight hair wavy, wavy hair curly and curly hair even curlier (but not in a good way). Plus, it doesn’t help that damaged hair gets even frizzier.
The good news: We’ve got four hair treatments to help you combat the frizz.
This treatment uses the airy flow line from Shiseido Professional with its unique Flow Motion technology to tame frizzy hair while repairing hair cuticles at the same time. The result: Our hair looked healthy and shiny, and was smooth and silky to the touch. Even walking felt like a different experience with our hair feeling so much lighter. Best bit? We’re in and out of the salon within the hour.

Inspired by the TikTok trend, this frizz-fighting gloss treatment promises to help control unruly hair texture while giving locks a brilliant mirror-like shine for up to four weeks with proper care. To make it even more indulgent, Oribe products are used along with a unique complex of sugar, hyaluronic acid and fruit extracts. But what we loved is how it could be done together with a colour service, or soon after, without compromising on the vibrancy of freshly dyed hair. Our frizzy, recently bleached locks looked healthier, smoother and shinier, and was more manageable even after wash.
