We updated this article in June 2022 to add more information about each featured product, expert commentary and two new top products based on extensive testing done by the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab. Show It’s not just you: Almost everyone battles frizzy hair in some form. In fact, a whopping 95% of women in Good Housekeeping’s tester panel reported that it was an issue for them. But unwanted pouf doesn’t have to be your destiny. There are countless anti-frizz hair products on the market — from shampoos and conditioners to hair serums, treatments and oils — that claim to make hair less frizzy by conditioning and smoothing the surface of strands. To find the anti-frizz products that really work, Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab scientists test them both in the Lab using scientific instruments to gauge their frizz-fighting abilities and on consumer testers, who report their feedback on ease of use, product attributes and effects on hair after application. They then collate both sets of data to identify the winning formulas. Here, read all about the GH Beauty Lab's top-tested best anti-frizz hair products, including drugstore bargains and the best options for curly, wavy and fine hair and beyond. Our top picks:

Scientists assess a product's ability to prevent frizz on human hair samples in the Lab’s humidity chamber over a period of up to 20 hours. At home, consumer testers also use the products (with labels masked to eliminate brand bias) as part of their regular hair routine, then report feedback on attributes such as ease of application, scent and look and feel of hair after use, as well as smoothness of hair throughout the day. In the Lab’s most recent anti-frizz styling products test, scientists tallied a total of 5,666 laboratory data points and consumer tester responses to zero in on the top formulas on the market. “Hair damage and the environment are the external factors to blame, though some hair textures, including curly hair types, are inherently more frizz-prone,” says Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab Executive Director Birnur Aral, Ph.D. “Hairstyling tools, regular brushing and chemical treatments, like hair color, can lift the outer layer of strands, making the cuticles more porous." In high humidity, this allows moisture to enter, causing hair strands to swell and frizz; in dry weather, it means moisture escapes, producing flyaways. “To help ward off both frizz and flyaways, you need to make sure hair stays conditioned, which helps seal the cuticle,” Aral explains. What to look for when shopping for the best anti-frizz hair products "Both styling products and cleansing and conditioning products should align with your hair type and needs," says GH Beauty Lab Senior Chemist Sabina Wizemann. Hair texture (fine, medium or coarse), shape (straight, wavy, curly or coily), density (how much hair you have on your head) and porosity (hair's ability to absorb and retain moisture) are all important factors to consider when seeking out the best anti-frizz products. Wizemann explains what to look for, according to your hair type: ✔️ For fine hair (whether straight, curly or coily), lightweight styling creams are a good option to help style and smooth, especially when applied to wet strands. Both light sprays and serums can work for fine-textured hair when used sparingly to tame flyaways and combat frizz. For fine curly and coily hair, you want ingredients that maintain curl elasticity and prevent breakage, like hydrolyzed protein, to enhance curls without feeling heavy. ✔️ For medium and
coarse hair types, nourishing creams and oils can tame unruly strands, make hair shinier and keep frizz at bay. But the usage is key: medium textured hair will need less product than thicker, coarse hair. Shea butter and coconut and castor oils are all
excellent emollients that will detangle hair, seal the cuticle and create more shine and less frizz. Look for products that say "nourishing" and "moisturizing" on the packaging, as they are packed with conditioning ingredientsv—vlike silicones and emollients — that keep hair soft and frizz-free.
