Counterintuitive Wavy-Hair Trick

I rely heavily on Phytodefrisant Botanical Hair Relaxing Balm—an anti-frizz/straightening product—to make my naturally curly hair appear naturally straight. The other day, I lazily never made it to the blow-drying/straightening part and instead let my hair air-dry. Fearing I would be left with a disastrous hybrid of kind of straight but still kind of curly hair, I was more than happily surprised when my hair ended up looking great. The Phytodefrisant relaxed my curls into loose, flowing waves and completely eliminated frizz.
