1. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is a sure-shot remedy to calm unruly hair – high levels of acidity in the potion work to smooth out frizz and imbue a healthy shine, while Alpha hydroxy and Vitamins B & C exfoliate the scalp. Just dilute a couple of drops of ACV in water and pour it over your hair when you’re done shampooing and conditioning. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes before you rinse it out, and silkier hair is yours to claim.The shortest ‘root’: The Beauty Co. Apple Cider Vinegar Shampoo

Great in your guac but better in your locks, avocado contains Vitamin C and tons of hydrating fatty acids that do wonders for the health of your hair. The essential component that’ll help you on a Frizzy Friday though, is Vitamin E, which the fleshy fruit contains in scores. Just create a paste with a ripe avocado and some olive oil and use it as a mask. Keep it on for 30 minutes every twice a week for a much calmer head of hair.The shortest ‘root’: Wow Hair Conditioner Organic Virgin Coconut Oil + Avocado Oil
