    Mess with it as little as possible and make sure it's got enough oil.

    Try only washing it every couple of days (on off days, wet it down). When you do wash it, put a few drops of olive oil on your hands and run it through your damp hair. (I also add a little oil when conditioning it.) Don't blow-dry your hair, and just wrap it in a towel rather than vigorously towel-drying it.

    I comb mine once a day since I prefer to break up the ringlets a bit. The rest of the time, I use my fingers to arrange it (wavy hair is forgiving).

    This works really well for my wavy-curly hair.

    If you can afford it, get a Brazilian Blowout. It lasts three months, and it literally gives you brand new hair. It's jaw-droppingly successful (I did this, and I can be rained on and my hair stays gorgeous). Best money I've spent in a looong time.
    Otherwise try a sample of Living Proof from Sephora, see if that works for you :). It's designed by MIT scientists and works completely differently than oils, it locks out the humidity. They have a website

    I use Aveda's Be Curly products, and they work pretty well to tame frizz. (The best thing I ever found is a now-discontinued Aveda product, sadly.)

    It's not exactly a product, but this little procedure works for me. I shower at night and towel dry my hair. Then I brush it and put it in a tight bun on the top of my head. When I style it in the morning, it's just moist enough to dry the rest of the way without getting frizzy. Good luck!

    Ug, I have long, naturally wavy hair that is also very thick and very fine. Consequently, simply brushing it in the morning used to be a) a pain in the ass, and b) ineffective at actually taming it. Here's what I discovered works for me.

    1. Try a leave-in conditioner. I really like L'anza's Leave-In Conditioner. After you wash your hair, divide it into a left and right part. Then put a glop of conditioner on your hand, smear it all over one handful of hair, and then comb it through with a shower comb. Repeat with the other side, get out of the shower, and towel-dry. It's great for detangling your hair and taming the frizzies.

    2. Switch to a comb...the fewer bristles, the fewer issues I have with Big Hair. I actually use a sparse wooden brush from The Body Shop. I think plastic bristles aren't good for your hair shafts.

    3. Be patient. I saw good results right away, but I didn't notice until just recently that I rarely have problems with my hair anymore. I think this is because I've been using the wooden brush/comb and conditioner for a few years now, and it's simply taken that long for my old damaged hair to grow out and be replaced with healthy hair.

    Good luck!

    Carol's Daughter products. They're originally made for African-Americans, but more and more white people with dry hair and frizz problems are using them. Try their Black Vanilla leave-in conditioner. Might be hard to find in white neighborhoods; the Sephora in U Village doesn't carry it but the one at Alderwood does. Also online.

    Giovanni brand Frizz Be Gone.  It is the only thing that works on my crazy cat lady hair.  It's made with more natural ingredients, smells great and you only need a little bit.  You can get it locally at a bunch of stores like PCC and Whole Foods.

    I also have naturally wavy hair (although it's not really an issue since I'm a guy and I tend to keep it short), and one of the few things I found that seemed to work for me in the past was the Tigi Bed Head control freak stuff. I had some luck with the Garnier Fructis option as well, but it didn't work nearly as well.

    For cheap(er) stuff from the grocery store, l really like the Frizz Eaze products. They've always worked fairly well, and the shampoos and conditioners make a noticeable difference.

    l second the Be Curly products, though. They are my favorite, though a little pricier, which is why l don't always use them (this is when l fall back on the Frizz Eaze), but really, they rock. My hair is long, curly, and crazy unruly, and l've yet to find a product that both returned my curl and kept the frizzies down, especially when it's halfway down my back.  l don't even need the shampoo and conditioner - l use the last two styling products on the page l linked you to, one for dry hair, and one for wet, and they do me just fine.
