Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez’s hair colorist uses these products

The summer months bring some of my favorite things: breezy summer dresses, ice cream for dinner, and evening trips to the park. One thing I could live without? Frizzy hair that comes with heat and humidity. And this year, I decided to finally revamp my routine with fly repellent products. That’s why I tapped celebrity colorist and Rita Hazan Salon founder Rita Hazan for recommendations, and her top four picks are all available for under $30 on Amazon.

Hazan’s client list includes Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, and Sydney Sweeney, to name a few, so you can see why I trust him completely when it comes to hair advice. In general, “when shopping for anti-frizz products, look for terms like blocks humidity, smooths and repels external environmental oils,” she said. Hazan then suggested specific creams, conditioners, and serums from Briogeo, Redken, Nexxus, and her namesake brand.

Below, check out the top four products Hazan recommends for reducing frizz and flyaways.

Rita Hazan Smoothing Cream

Starting with her namesake brand, Hazan recommends Rita Hazan Smoothing Cream to “fight frizz when you style your hair and keep it healthy and shiny all day long.” The formula is safe for color-treated strands and protects against heat damage. All you have to do is run the product through damp hair, starting at the ends and working up to the roots, then continue with your blow-drying routine. Plus, according to one reviewer, you can also use the product before letting your strands air dry, and it will “keep (your) hair from getting frizzy.”

Briogeo Farewell Frizz Blow Dry Cream

Hazan swears by Briogeo Farewell Frizz Blow Dry Cream for “locking in moisture all day long” thanks to its impressive range of ingredients. It’s made with a blend of oils, including rosehip, coconut, and argan, which work together to condition, hydrate, and protect strands from breakage. And depending on the length of your locks, you’ll apply a dollop to a quarter-sized amount of cream to damp hair, from roots to ends, before drying and styling. One shopper with thick, curly hair even said the product “helped control (their) frizz drastically to make it look much smoother.” It’s no wonder that more than 1,000 Amazon shoppers have purchased the product in the past month, according to the retailer.

Redken Frizz Dismiss Conditioner

If you don’t regularly use hot tools on your hair, add Redken Frizz Dismiss Conditioner to your daily wash routine for soft, silky locks. “It’s super lightweight and doesn’t leave hair greasy throughout the day,” according to Hazan. In addition, it is composed of babassu oil to moisturize the hair and scalp and combat the effects of humidity. One reviewer said it’s “very hydrating, makes (their) hair super soft and is very effective at taming frizz.” Not to mention that it “smells good”.

Nexxus Ultralight Smooth Hair Serum

Amazon


“Incorporating a hair serum can also work for dull strands,” Hazan said, and she specifically recommends the Nexxus Ultralight Hair Serum, which is on sale for $11 with an on-site coupon. It “helps combat flyaways, locks in humidity and gives your hair a natural shine,” she said, and these effects can last up to 72 hours depending on the brand. You can use it on damp and dry hair, and it even acts as a heat protectant. According to one reviewer, the serum is a “great option to apply after showering” because it leaves hair “soft and manageable.”

With hot, humid summer days approaching, now is the time to add these anti-frizz formulas to your hair care routine.
