How 19 Celebrities Are Fighting Frizz, Including Shakira, Ariana Grande and More

It may seem like Hollywood’s finest don’t have our everyday problems, but even celebrities deal with problems like frizzy hair on a regular basis — we just don’t usually see it.

But how do celebrities deal with frizzy hair? From silk pillow cases to smoothing sprays, there are so many solutions regarded by even the most glamorous, including Selena Gomez, Reese Witherspoon and more.

How 19 Celebrities Are Fighting Friz

1. Alix Earle: Though Alix Earle gained popularity for beauty routines, she doesn’t exclusively use high-end products. She keeps flyaways at bay with Pantene Multi-Tasker 10 Shampoo, to make her hair feel “softer than ever.”

2. Ariana Grande: Ariana Grande’s hair is naturally curly and voluminous, but T3’s Lucea Hair Straightener kept it tamed during her Wicked press tour. Will it make you popular? Either way, your hair will look wicked good.

3. Solange Knowles: Beyoncé may have a haircare line, but Solange is loyal to Carol’s Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey.

“It’s like an oil, but it’s not,” she stated. “I was a Carol’s Daughter advocate way before I became a part of the brand.”

4. Shakira: Shockingly, the She Wolf doesn’t always have a perfect hair day. That’s why Davines Oi Oil is a go-to for Shakira’s stylist. It tames and rehydrates dry hair — which is a great product especially for anyone with curls.

5. Natasha Lyonne: Russian Doll star Natasha Lyonne is a curly queen. But to tone it down, her stylist relies on Hairstory Hair Balm. She works it in when Lyonne’s hair is still wet to properly set the curls in place.

6. Lili Reinhart: Shu Uemera’s Ultimate Reset Mask Treatment is a go-to for Lili Reinhart to offset damage from dying and styling. It keeps hair healthy and moisturized, which in turn, fends off flyaways.

7. Sarah Jessica Parker: Even Carrie Bradshaw’s hair can get out of hand! But to keep it slick, she uses Tancho Hair Styling Wax.

“I use something called Tancho Stick,” she said in an interview. “It’s amazing. It has a smell like heaven.”

8. Nicole Richie: To tame her naturally unruly hair, Richie uses Unite Leave-In Conditioner. She tries to do as little as possible to her hair to avoid inflicting further damage.

9. Selena Gomez: Selena Gomez keeps her naturally curly hair under control with Fekkai’s Brilliant Glossing Styling Creme. Her stylist revealed it was the key to her 2024 Emmy’s look, so we’re sold.

10. Lizzo: There’s a reason why Lizzo always looks “good as hell.” The pop star uses Sebastian Professional Mousse Forte to keep its “free-flowing shape.” That way, she can twerk and play the flute, without losing her look.

11. Salma Hayek: Salma Hayek’s stylist uses Unite U Argan Oil to hydrate, protect and fight frizz. She also washes her hair only a couple days a week to avoid dehydrating her locks… take note!

12. Sarah Hyland: Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland has bodacious, wild hair. To keep it looking luscious, she uses In Common’s Magic Mist Hair Elixir, created by stylist Nikki Lee, to moisturize and tame her curly hair.

13. Chrissy Teigen: Smoothing your strands starts in your sleep. Chrissy Teigen uses a silk pillowcase, especially when she travels, to ensure her hair looks camera-ready even after a long flight.

14. Laverne Cox: Not only does coconut oil support hair growth, but it also keeps your hair tame and moisturized. Laverne Cox likes Marc Anthony Coconut and Shea Curl Cream because of the nourishing ingredients.

15. Rita Ora: To ensure a good hair day, Rita Ora says that she relies S2 Sea Salt Texture Mist on a daily basis.

“I just need to control my frizz and my curls,” she tells Elle Australia.

16. Vanessa Hudgens: Obviously, the Disney alum doesn’t have pin-straight hair — so how does she keep it looking that way? Her stylist says she uses SexyHair Healthy Smooth and Seal Shine and Anti-Frizz Spray for a glossy finish.

17. Leona Lewis: To keep her locks in check, Leona Lewis has relied on Living Proof, specifically the frizz-free line, since the 2020 Golden Globes. The company was founded by MIT scientists as a solution to frizzy hair.

18. Reese Witherspoon: The Legally Blonde star’s stylist says that a L’Oreal Steampod Flat Iron and Styler was key to her 2022 SAG Awards hair, because steam and heat help tame frizz, safely.

19. Amal Clooney: Even though her hair always looks shiny, Amal Clooney is no stranger to frizz. But she credits Morrocanoil Frizz Control Shampoo with keeping her strands in check.
