Frizz is a universal hair concern that affects all textures, regardless of type. Whether you’ve got curly, wavy, or straight hair—dealing with unruly hair that puffs up at the slightest touch of humidity can feel like a daily battle. If your current hair care routine is full of anti-frizz products, heat styling tools, or DIY hacks that aren’t delivering real results, it might be time to explore professional treatments designed to transform your hair from root to tip.
In this guide, you’ll discover the most effective salon treatment for frizzy hair, including our own signature treatments. We’ll break down the best options, and help you find the right treatment for your unique hair concerns.
Why choose salon treatments for frizzy hair?
At-home masks and oils have their place, but nothing quite matches the precision of professional treatments tailored for your specific needs.
Salon treatments work at a deeper level—repairing weak spots in the hair shaft, improving the fibre strength, and locking in moisture for longer-lasting frizz control. Having professional treatments at the salon, will ensure healthy hair when you leave!
Tailored Treatments
At Izabella Bordignon, we will assess your hair type, texture, and condition, then recommend the best option based on your goals—whether that’s smoother hair, reduced breakage, or long-term health. Many of these treatments also replenish essential proteins lost through environmental factors, chemical damage, or heat styling.
Avoiding heat damage
Plus, most treatments avoid the need for aggressive flat irons or chemical-based hair products. This means less damage and more focus on restoring natural shine, moisture, and hair manageability over time.

Why you should not use straightening treatments to help with frizz
Keratin Smoothing Treatments and Brazilian Blowouts typically rely on heat-sealed protein formulas, often combined with aldehyde derivatives. Even-though they may last longer than non-straightening treatments, some may cause chemical damage over time, leaving you with damaged hair. These treatments can:
- Disrupt the natural structure of the hair fibre
- Cause cumulative protein overload
- Increase porosity over time
- Create dependency for smoothness
While effective in the short term, their aggressive nature makes them unsuitable for long-term health, particularly for curly, coloured, or fine hair.

Finding the perfect treatment depends on your:
- Texture (fine, coarse, curly)
