Redken Frizz Dismiss

What's in the Redken Frizz Dismiss range?
There's a shampoo, conditioner and mask for washing, then two leave-ins: Rebel Tame, a cream for smoothing and controlling frizz, and Instant Deflate, a serum-style product that reduces puffiness on dry hair. Most people start with the shampoo, conditioner and Rebel Tame, then add Instant Deflate if their hair still puffs up during the day.

How do I use Frizz Dismiss Rebel Tame?
Apply it to damp, towel-dried hair before you blow-dry. Work it through the mid-lengths and ends with your fingers or a comb, then style. Use less if your hair is fine. It's a leave-in, so don't rinse it out. For extra smoothness, blow-dry with a round brush or follow with a straightener.

How do I use Instant Deflate?
Instant Deflate goes on dry hair. Rub a small amount between your palms and smooth it over areas that puff up, usually the top, around the face and the ends. It's handy to keep in your bag for humid days. Start with a tiny amount and add more if you need it, so your hair doesn't look greasy.

Is Frizz Dismiss good for curly hair?
It works on curls, but it's designed mainly to smooth. If you want to keep definition, use the shampoo and conditioner and a curl cream instead of Rebel Tame. If you blow-dry or straighten your curls, Frizz Dismiss is a good fit. Our frizzy hair guide explains the difference between frizz and curl.

What causes frizz in the first place?
Frizz is usually dry or rough hair taking moisture from the air, which lifts the cuticle and makes hair puff up. Humidity makes it worse, as does rough towel-drying, over-washing and heat damage. Smoothing products help, but so does gentler handling. Our Frizz Dismiss guide covers this in more depth.
