Caring for frizzy hair, naturally!

..."Their structure means they are insufficiently lubricated by sebum, making them very dry and difficult to detangle.
Alas, to wash them, you must first detangle them! But there's no need to suffer! The best approach is to apply a detangling gel or spray a lanolin-based product, which will help remove knots. Gently, centimeter by centimeter, from the ends to the roots, not the other way around, use a wide-toothed comb, making four to six sections.
Once the knots are removed, shampoo with a specific product. Any other shampoo, even those for dry hair, could remove the sebum that is already dangerously lacking.
Rinse thoroughly, then from the scalp to the ends, strand by strand, apply shea butter, jojoba oil, or castor oil. These products moisturize and soften frizzy hair.
Leave on for at least an hour or overnight if you can.
