Good Morning!
Would like to attend the John Frieda Hair Tour. I really like John Frieda Frizz Ease Serum. As for my hair-
I have alot of hair challenges going on. At 44, my hair is starting to thin. I have naturally fine,curly hair and normally straighten it and then hot curl it to give it volume. I have to be EXTRA careful when I apply Anti-Frizz products otherwise, I get that greasy look. A bad hair day is when I have that frizzy look from not using the flat iron correctly, or sometimes the weather, then I have to pull my hair back with a clip and finesse my bangs just right, which does not always happen
I was born with the dreaded natural curly hair!!! So we all know what that means, dry hair and lots of frizz! My solution was to cut it off into an asymmetrical bob and start wearing it straight which means that its even drier due to heat exposure and breaks easily. I have started deep conditioning my hair because I am letting it grow back out because I really miss my curls! I have noticed that when I use styling creams when its curly that it does help tame a lot of the issues without weighing my hair down.
Friziness! Chronic friziness! Wavy, dry, frizzy hair-that’s what I got from Mother Nature. So far the only thing that actually tames my mane is the flat iron. It works but my ends look like straws after a month of two and I get split ends. So, anything that would make the flat iron not an absolute necessity would be just great…Thank you Bionic Beauty and John Frieda for hosting and sponsoring this giveaway!
I have curly frizzy hair! And to lessen the frizz I wash ie every night, put some Frizz Ease on it and the braid it. In the morning there will be less frizz.
Oh where to begin! Very long, curly, thick, frizzy, dry, highlighted hair so too much volume, frizzy curls and dry. Control is my key word and I don’t always win!

Whenever I experience the frizzies, I just bun it up, plain and simple.
I have naturally curly hair and a high forehead. Therefore, I wear my bangs straightened every day, with the exception of every now and then in the summertime. I try to combat the humidity/crazy-wigged out bangs issue by not washing my hair every day, and by applying a wee bit extra styling product on days that I don’t wash my hair. That seems to help! I use several John Frieda products (love the hairspray!), mixing it up with other brands that I own.
P.S. Yay!!! They’re coming to Minnesota, woohoo!!
My hair is frizzy all the time. It doesn’t matter what I do to it, the frizz won’t go away. I have never tried these products before and maybe I need to. Even if I straighten my hair, by the end of the day is is frizzy again. I haven’t had a perm in years and my hair is color-treated and naturally wavy. I went short this time to get most of the waves and frizz out.
I have super oily hair. I have to wash it every day or it looks like I haven’t in a week. It drives me crazy. I usually just pull it back for work. I curl it under or flip it out for going out. My biggest issue is lack of volume.
I have fine hair that tends to tangle and frizz up. I have to wash it everyday, or I cannot do anything with it. I try to use shampoo and conditioners that are moisturizing, and will usually use a detangler before styling. I guess we all have our hair issues!
I have naturally curly hair that frizzes at the first hint of moisture. I finally found a solution that works the majority of the time: I am a faithful user of John Frieda products and have found that as long as I use them and a good quality straightener, my frizz will stay under control.
I have weird thick straight but some of the back is wavy. I never can get it the way I want it. And to deal with a bad hair day I opt for a hat or a pony tail
My hair issues are that my hair is flat and thin – so I need volume and thickening help! With bad hair days, I just wear hats.
I have super thick hair and it’s a bit coarse so it takes forever to dry and I have to make sure it all gets dry or else it looks like a gross, frizzy mop! The way I avoid bad hair days is to make sure to get my hair 100% dry and then straighten it. On days when I am looking a hot mess, I just pull it back in a sleek ponytail.
The only hair issue that I have is that I can’t stand having my hair dyed anymore, so I stopped dying it. Now I let that gorgeous gray come right on in!

My hair is THICK, and it becomes really unmanageable, I have to have it cut every 4 weeks. My issues are dryness and unmanageability.
My hair is super thick and slightly frizzy and honestly most of the time I wear it up (I don’t know if that quite qualifies as manageable but that is what I do).
my hair is frizzy
Flat as a board! I wonder how this shampoo would work on it?
I have natural wavy hair that on most days is hard to control, thank god for flat irons and smoothing hair care products
My hair is a tough to handle not quite straight, not quite wavy, but really thick type. Unless I spend time with a flat iron or a curling iron, it looks a little rough. But I know that all that heat is damaging my hair, so I’m always looking for ways to make it healthier.
My hair gets so frizzy in damp weather and it’s untameable !!
To keep the frizz out of my curly hair and avoid bad hair days, I always use leave-in conditioner from Curls Rock. When even that doesn’t work, I can always pull it back in a barrette!
I have dreaded frizz made worse by the humidity here in Florida. I’m ashamed to say most days I combat it with a ponytail!
Thank your for this giveaway! My hair has always been horrible, going from oily to dry to everything else in between! The only consistent thing about my hair is the frizz. it drives me insane! I have been wearing hats lately when I go out, and my hair is in a tight bun if Im at home. I cant stand the little strands getting in my eyes and mouth!
After each of my 3 kids..my hair changed. After my second daughter, I had long spiral curls..loved them! After my son (and last), I developed so many medical issues (pregnancy induced hypothyroidism and Hasimoto’s Disease), which both have made my hair thin and become dull….and FRIZZY!! I usually just use alot of leave-in conditioner and then put it in a pony (which I know is not good when your hair is falling out!). But it works for this busy mom! Oh…you should see it in the summer with the humidity..oh em gee!!!
Great giveaway!

My hair is just a dry mess, its frizz and wavy/curly, how great is that!! What I do to make it look nice is I straighten it and put silk on, before and after, it leaves it really shiny, and I also use Dove’s Daily Moisture Therapy shampoo and conditioner, which kinda helps at making it soft and shiny, but not that much.
My hair is frizzy, especially on days with high humidity. Unfortunately I have yet to really be able to control the frizz on those days.
My hair is becoming thin and dry. Is this shampoo really works on my hair?
HOLY CATS! I’ve been cursed with the crappy hair on Earth. No fear, I own a flat iron so the world is a little better. I live in South Florida with ridiculous humidity and beach days….my hair is crazy!
I flat iron my hair everyday (imagine the damage)
Thanks for the opportunity! This would really help some of my frizz
Frizzy – so frizzy. I use a serum that keeps it under control – also a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner tames it – most of the time. I’d love to try John Frieda’s line.
I have wavy hair that will frizz-I use a leave in conditioner but then my do gets limp and will not hold a style
Like so many other women, my hair can be a problem. It is wavy with frizz around my hairline, and very, very fine. When the weather cooperates and I use a blow dryer, straightening product, and flat iron, it can look great. But mostly, it doesn’t.
I have thick, dry, curly hair which goes “POOF” in the humidity. I usually use John Frieda Serum on it to keep it under control.
i use frizz-ease for my frizzy hair and alot of conditioner
In this dry arizona heat my hair gets very frizzy
Before I moved, I used to put a volume gel into my hair before I would blow dry and that would do the trick. But, now that I am in a new town, I have found that the gel doesn’t work, so I instead have to thoroughly condition my hair every day, and that seems to help.

I get dull hair from the pool and need to undull it
On bad hair days, I take the easy way out and wear a headband.
My hair issues are “thin” and “dry”…I try to do by best to keep it conditioned.
I began to gray twenty years ago, when I was in my mid-30′s. So, every four weeks, I’m off to the salon for a root touch-up and trim.
I have THE thickest hair ever and if I don’t use some kind of shine or smoothing serum I look like Stevie Nicks circa 1979!!!
For bad hair days I usually will give up and put on a funky hat (I’m a big hat girl!!)

I keep my hair just long enough for a pony tail-a short one.
I have naturally curly hair that has been very dry and apparently disgruntled with me ever since my first child. Shampooing less often and deep conditioning as often as possible has really revived it. Bad hair days usually get masked by pulling my hair back in a braid or a bun.
I can not make any of the events as they are not near me. I would love to be entered in the product giveaway. I have thin hair that has no body to it at all. Living in Florida just does not help either. Most times I just pull it back into a pony tail
Whenever I experience the frizzies, I just bun it up, plain and simple
I have loads of hair issues! First of all, I have thick, wavy, dyed hair that comes complete with a low forehead, hair that grows down and a widow’s peak. Imagine trying to style that mess! Trying to keep hair off my forehead in a sideswept feathered bang or getting rid of any form of bangs is a challenge. You wouldn’t image how many root lifters, waxes, etc. I have tried. This head gets worse when the humidity hits and my freaks out.
MY HAIR IS LONG AND NATURALLY WILD. AFTER I GET OUT OF THE SHOWER HAVING A WASH AND CONDITION, IF I LET IT DRY BY ITSELF IT LOOKS AS THROUGH I HAD STUCK MY FINGER INTO A SHOCKET AND HAVE BEEN SHOCKED. I AM OUT OF CONTROL AND HOPE I WIN THIS PRODUCT.
My problems: Split ends, frizzy, not much volume.
My solutions: I don’t like to cut my hair often, so instead of cutting the split ends off, I just keep moisturizing them with condition. For frizziness, I use a bit of mouse. For volume, switch my part.
My solutions only temporary work and sometimes that don’t work at all.
I have very long, very thick hair that loves to curl and frizz. It gets tangled so easily and takes forever to dry! The frizz is what kills me though, so I use a leave-in and an oil spray to try and smooth them out.

have curly, frizzy hair, helps to use hot rollers
My biggest hair issue is frizz. I use lots of hairspray to keep it under control.
I have dry, wavy, frizzy hair. I try to avoid bad hair days by moisturizing daily, conditioning weekly, and using a hair serum daily.
My problem is hair that is extremely thin, baby-fine, and ultra-oily. The wisps are all over my head! The only way I can control it is to use a ton of hairspray and it still has no style and looks terrible. Totally flat. Help!!!
BABY FINE HAIR–I CONDITION ONLY THE ENDS–LOV THE FRIEDA HAIR PRODUCT LINE!!!!!!!!
My crazy curly frizz mess on top of my head is the WORST!
It takes about an hour before i can make it presentale each morning.
Since I started growing out my hair seven months ago, I’ve noticed that my hair is really dry and frizzy (especially the ends). I’ve tried tons of treatments, and nothing seems to work. My hair is really thick. I’ve tried deep conditioners, but they don’t fix the frizz. I really need some Frizz Ease!
My hair issues are my hair is over processed and is dry and brittle. I use a lot of leave in conditioner to try to help
My hair issues is I have a very bad habbit of dying and bleaching it all in the same week and it’s very dry and brittle and very frizzy!
MY HAIR ALWAYS GETS FRIZZY AND I HATE IT..I ALWAYS HAVE TO USE A SERUM TO STOP THE FRIZZ THANKS HOPE I WIN
I recently cut a fair amount of hair off and now my previously straight hair is not so straight anymore. I dont know what to do about it. I need help
I have really frizzy hair. It is extremely thick and has a slight wave and to make maters even worse, I am now turning grey. With this ,I have to use smoothing products and a good smoothing gel, a big brush to blow dry straight and then a very hot straightner.It is a long process and I hope these products will cut some of the frizz down making the process easier.
My hair can really be a nightmare. I have to use smoothing cream and a flat iron to achieve non-hideousness!
My hair frizzes on bad hair days, and even on good hair days if I don’t use a good conditioner.

My biggest hair issue is color damage. I treat it by using extra conditioner.
My hair has a tendency to frizz and I have had lots of gray since I was 16. I am now 30 and finally gave up the hair dye so it would quit the frizzies and have it cut in layers which seems to help. I now have a huge white streak going down the middle of my head like a skunk LOL! I would love to find a product that was good enough to allow me to dye my hair and still have sleek hair.
My hair is thinning and dry. Every day is a bad hair day! Nothing I do helps.
When my flat, frizzy hair won’t cooperate, I just pull it up in a pony tail and use some hair spray. Unfortunately, this happens often.
I deal with bad hair days by accepting that they exist and not taking my appearance too seriously
Thanks!
Frizz Ease really saves me from bad hair days. I have crazy curly hair so dealing with it at night and putting a wrap on when I sleep saves me a lot of trouble in the mornings.
I have very long straight hair that gets dry because I color it, I try to avoid problems by using good conditioners.
I have thin, color treated hair that can get very frizzy. I try to get regular cuts to avoid the appeance of split ends. When I can’t avoid a bad hair day, I just go the pony tail route.
I have naturally curly very frizzy hair, it needs all the help it can get, thanks!
my hair gets frizzy but i usually just put it in a pony tail to manage it.
