OK…where are the days going?! Doesn’t it feel like summer is flying by far too fast? I’ve been working on an entry to share a number of Tips & Tricks that I’ve learned recently from No Frizz users (and I promise to post it soon!), but decided instead that we need to share our Spring & Summer No Frizz Success Stories!

Today I was walking down balmy Broadway after 15 of the rainiest NYC June days EVER, and I saw many a woman with hair pulled back in a pony or clip, and definitely more hats than normally. And then – as if defying the weather Gods – a woman strutted toward me, her gorgeous head of shiny, perfectly straight brunette hair fully exposed to the humid air. She clearly had confidence in her ‘do as she swung her locks from side to side, and I thought to myself “That’s gotta be No Frizz hair!” I hurried my stride to catch her at the crosswalk, turned to her, and said “No Frizz?”

Yeah, so my heart definitely stopped for a second when she paused, because I thought perhaps I’d just secured my loony status in her mind! Then to my delight she turned her head to me, smiled, and said, “YES! It’s so amazing!” Turns out this beauty’s name is Shauna, and to call her a super fan would be an understatement! Thanks for spreading the No Frizz word, Shauna, and for indulging my nosy side today!

If you’ve experienced superb results like Shauna has, please share your stories here, and send me photos at gwen@livingproof.com Look forward to hearing from you!

    After ordering Full on QVC and finding it life changing, I went to this website and ordered 2 jumbo styling treatments. OMG, I have the best hair of my life. I went back and ordered the shampoo and conditioner and now I LOVE my hair. I never loved my hair. Thank you for Living Proof. I gave away all the expensive products I had been using that never worked. I stopped buying uncomfortable and expensive hair peices to try and give me what I was looking for. Please hurry up on the production of Full, and thanks again for giving me the best hair. (now if you could only come up with the perfect weight loss product, my life would be complete. LOL)

    Thanks, Olivia! You know we love to hear the good stuff. :) By chance, have you also noticed that your hair doesn’t absorb the scents of food, smoke, etc? A friend of mine that is also a waitress (at a Mexican restaurant, where the yummy smells run high!) told me that since she’s been using No Frizz, she noticed that when she goes home at night, her hair doesn’t smell like Mexican food anymore. She can sleep without dreams of queso and enchiladas! I think the PolyfluoroEster shield is keeping odors at bay. Just wondering if you’ve found the same to be true?

    I have been a no frizz user since the stuff was launched or in the new packaging. I live in Colorado, and there is never humidity out here (although my hair is frizzy)….until this year. Worst its ever been. Even though I always feel sticky and gross, my hair always looks pretty freaking good. Can I just say how many people I have gotten compliments from, even in the summer months, about how well my hair holds up while at work? I am always running back and forth (I am a waitress) to the kitchen, bar, patio while its raining, back inside, for hours and hours. Even my manager wanted to know on a particular busy day of the year how I kept my hair looking good all night, and I brought her one of my bottles. She loves it too and totally plans on buying more once she runs out. I tell everyone what I use and where they can get some. Just sharing the love!

    Oh my gosh, Melissa I am definitely stealing your beach locks trick! I’m heading to sunny Mexico this Wednesday, and you can bet I’ll be rocking the salty air ‘do courtesy of your product usage ingenuity. Thanks for sharing! – Gwen

    As a SoCal resident, it’s pretty much summer here all the time. But No Frizz is really put to the test early in the morning, when the marine layer is thick (think fog, but wetter).

    And can I just say it passes with flying colors? Not only does it hold up in the mornings, but I have to share this: we all know how fabulous beach hair looks, but how briefly it lasts. Well, I tried a little something. I took the little sample of No Frizz spray I got from Sephora (when I bought the heavy duty Treatment) and when I got out of the ocean, just spritzed it on; Well, not only did my hair look fabulous that day, but two days later, people thought I had gone to the beach THAT DAY.

    Oh yes. I love this stuff. I can’t thank you enough!

    Hi, Kim! Isn’t it crazy how humid it gets in NYC?! I thought moving here from Georgia that I was escaping muggy days, but not so much. Glad you’re having overall good results … some days the humidity just steps it up a notch! I recommend giving the new Shampoo & Conditioner a try (if the Limited Edition Lab quantities haven’t sold out yet!), as combining their usage with the stylers can help to enhance your results even more.

  7. GwenNYC says:

    Kim, I’m so sorry to hear you’re disappointed! You must have been in some seeeeerious humidity if your results changed so dramatically – I hope you had a great vacation despite the hair meltdown. Like you, I had an experience in humidity where it seemed that the product wasn’t working very well. I spoke to the No Frizz team, and they made suggestions that got my results back on track. For instance, I changed to a sulfate-free shampoo and switched conditioners (I was completely unaware that I was using a very silicone-heavy formula, which was hindering the perfect PolyfluoroEster humidity shield from forming). For the Summer, I also changed to the Spray formula instead of the Cream, as my hair is Medium and experiencing less dryness during warm months. If you’d like to give No Frizz another chance, please let me know as much as you can about your hair and regimen (application, other products used, chemical processing – i.e. last time you may have colored or straightened your hair), or give Living Proof a call at 1-866-240-9933. Thank you for your feedback!
    Best, Gwen

    P.S. I started using the new Shampoo and Conditioner about a week ago, and am having the best frizz-free days yet! The formulas are oil-free, silicone-free, and sulfate-free, yet foam and have fantastic slip. Best of all, using the products makes achieving a more even, complete shield around each hair strand much easier than using styling product alone. I hope you’ll give them a try!

    I love this product. It works great. But I agree that it does not hold up in humidity. I was recently in NYC for a few days in June and my hair still “grew” as soon as I stepped outside. While it wasn’t awful, it did stay as straight as when I normally use this product.

  9. Kim says:

    I’m so disappointed in No Frizz. It worked great until I was in real humidity. Last week on vacation my hair looked worse than ever before. It was so frizzy even when I doubled the amount of product you recommend using. The one advantage the product has that other frizzy hair products I have used that work better don’t have is that it doesn’t cause my face to break out.

  10. GwenNYC says:

    Audree, so excited to hear how happy you are with the results! Thanks for sharing your story. If you haven’t done so already, see if you can snag one of the Limited Edition Lab Series sets of the Shampoo & Conditioner here. They’re running out fast!

    LOVE TO TRY NEW PRODUCTS WITH SUCH LOFTY CLAIMS AND AM NOT ADVERSE TO BUYING AND GIVING A TRY WITH A SOMEWHAT OPEN MIND. LET ME TELL YOU, THESE PRODUCTS WORK!!!! I HAVE WHAT I CALL FRIZZY, FUZZY HAIR. IF I BLOW DRY IT CAN LOOK PRETTY GOOD BUT I CAN NEVER LEAVE IT TO FEND FOR ITSELF AND IF THERE IS A HINT OF HUMIDITY IN THE AIR, EVEN WITH BLOW DRYING, WELL YOU KNOW THAT STORY. EVER SINCE I STARTED USING NO FRIZZ I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I CAN NOW GO OUTSIDE IN BOTH HUMIDITY AND RAIN AND MY HAIR STAYS FRIZZ FREE!!! IT’S A MIRACLE. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. I’M GOING TO TRY THE SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER NEXT
