Frizz Rescue Finishing Serum
Finishing serum for shine and flyaway control
Our Take
Part of the Frizz Control (green) range, this protein-free finishing serum earns its place as the very last product in a wash-day routine. A pea-sized amount worked through palms and then scrunched through fully dry hair adds mirror-like shine while smoothing the canopy flyaways that remain after scrunching out a gel cast. On second-day hair it can tame frizz along the hairline and edges without disrupting the curl pattern beneath. Fine curlies should use sparingly — it's rich enough to weigh down a fine canopy if over-applied, but for medium to thick hair it delivers the polished finish that turns a good curl day into a great one.

How to Use
Shake well. Apply once your hair is 100% dry - after diffusing or air drying. Smooth over curls to gently coat strands and seal in moisture. Scrunch hair to break the crunchy gel cast and make your curls soft and bouncy. Separate curls that are part of bigger clumps to achieve more volume and fullness.
