Can a bad haircut cause you hair to frizz

I went for Supercuts for a haircut about 10 days ago, I washed and dried it over the weekend and frizz a thon. Granted I do have lots of hair. I am not thinking of going for a keratin treatment to control it. Please do not comment about my choice of where I got my hair cut. Thanks

A haircut won't change the texture of your hair.  There's likely just an increase in humidity in your area.

I don't see how a haircut could change the texture of your hair. Maybe there is more humidity where you live now that it is getting warmer...I use Wen as a conditioner on the ends and sexy hair brand healthy oil on damp hair, that seems to help frizz.

I think your hair looks good,  doesn't matter where you go to get it cut, it is about the hairstylist.   I have thick, coarse, dry and color treated hair which is prone to frizzing in humidity.  I suggest using moisturizing hair masks and conditioners.

@I am still oxox My hair is curlier on the sides so if my hair is cut shorter it does have a tendency to frizz a little.

Re: Can a bad haircut cause you hair to frizz

In my opinion--- YES IT CAN!  I have frizzy curly hair.  Twice in my lifetime I got razor cuts.  Oh my-----it took til the next haircut to get it back in my usuall frizziness that I can deal with!

Re: Can a bad haircut cause you hair to frizz

My mostly gray hair has a lot of natural wave. When I wore it in a layered, chin-length bob it would frizz if I didn't blowdry it...and sometimes humidity would make it frizz even if I did.

 

I now have a short cut with many layers, and it's never frizzed...even in the worst South Carolina humidity. The humidity just emphasizes the waviness.

 

All this to say @I am still oxox , you might want to consider a different kind of cut. I never thought I would like short hair on me, but I love it! No blowdrying, no hairspray, just some gel mixed with Tweak'd Revitalizing Mist. Comb it into place, let it air-dry, fluff and go! Sometimes I use Bedhead Headrush Spray (on driy hair) for extra shine. 

 

Only downside is I have to get it cut every month, instead of every other month.

@vermint I have no layers just a chin length bob. I have had pixie cuts and do not like the way I look in them so I will opt for Keratin I have had it before and my hair loves it

I was going to say the same thing. If the ends were either razor cut or texturized in some way, then yes, it can fizz your hair.
