How to Get Curly Hair Volume Without Frizz: Best Way to Style Curly Hair in Humid Weather

by Team XO Curls 29 Sep 2025 0 Comments

Highlights of the Blog:

  • Why humidity makes curly hair frizzy and puffy.

  • Styling hacks for achieving volume without losing definition.

  • XO Curls product routine that works even in Indian monsoons.

Introduction

Every curly person in India knows the struggle: you leave home with defined curls, but the moment humidity hits, volume turns into frizz and puffiness.

But here’s the truth, humidity doesn’t have to ruin your curls. With the right styling products and techniques, you can achieve bouncy curly hair volume without the frizz, even in sticky weather.

Why Humidity Affects Curly Hair

Humidity causes the hair cuticle to swell, which:

  • Makes curls expand too much, creating puffiness.

  • Breaks curl clumps, leading to frizz.

  • Reduces definition, so curls look shapeless.

That’s why your humid-weather routine must focus on hydration + hold + protection.

Styling Routine for Humid Weather Volume

Step 1: Start with Hydration

XO Curls Hydrating Conditioner (Flax Seeds, Hibiscus, Lavender, Chamomile)

  • Keeps curls soft and frizz-free.

Step 2: Lock in Moisture

XO Curls Leave-In Conditioner (Flax Seeds, Brahmi, Olive Squalane, Argan Oil)

  • Lightweight hydration that prevents humidity-induced dryness.

Step 3: Define & Hold with Gel

XO Curls All Day Definition Gel (Flax Seeds, Avocado, Nettle, Argan Oil)

  • Creates a protective gel cast that locks curl shape against humidity.

  • Scrunch out once dry for soft, voluminous curls.

Styling Hacks for Volume Without Frizz

  • Apply on soaking wet hair to seal moisture before humidity hits.

  • Diffuse upside down for root lift and long-lasting volume.

  • Layer leave-in + gel for the perfect balance of softness and hold.

  • Hands off once dry—touching curls in humidity creates instant frizz.

Lifestyle Tips for Humid Weather Curls

  • Carry a mini water + leave-in spritz for midday refresh.

  • Sleep on an XO Curls Satin Pillowcase to reduce overnight frizz.

  • Avoid heavy oils post-wash; they attract more humidity and weigh curls down.

  • Drink plenty of water—hydrated curls resist frizz better.

Final Thoughts

Humidity is one of the biggest challenges for curlies in India, but it doesn’t mean you have to give up on volume. With the right balance of hydration, definition, and styling hacks, your curls can stay bouncy, defined, and frizz-free no matter how sticky the weather gets.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why does humidity make my curls so frizzy?
Because the cuticle swells and absorbs excess moisture from the air, causing puffiness.

2. Can I get volume without frizz in monsoons?
Yes—with leave-in + gel combo, diffusing, and avoiding heavy creams.

3. Should I skip conditioner in humid weather?
No. Conditioner keeps curls hydrated—skipping it leads to more frizz.

4. What’s the best quick fix for midday frizz?
Spritz with water + leave-in, scrunch lightly, and smooth with a touch of gel.

5. Is it okay to air-dry in humidity?
Air-drying often causes flatness or puffiness. Diffusing with gel works better.

6. Which XO Curls product helps most in humid climates?
The All Day Definition Gel—it seals curls with a soft cast that resists humidity.
