What should I use for frizzy hair?

Hello, please help me with some suggestion on how to tame my frizzy hair. What should I use for frizzy hair? Is it really impossible?

@nipa Frizziness is caused by dry hair that lacks moisture. Ironically, humid, wet weather tends to make frizzy hair worse. That’s because dry hair tries to absorb moisture out of the air, causing each hair’s cuticle, or outer layer, to swell up, instead of lying flat. The cuticle comprises overlapping scales, which separate and rise in moist air. This makes hair look frizzy. Anything that dries out hair can make frizz worse. This includes shampoos that are alkaline, and products, such as styling gels, that contain alcohol. Styling tools that use heat can also dry out hair, making frizz erupt. Apple cider vinegar is an alpha hydroxy acid that’s slightly acidic. For this reason, anecdotal evidence indicates that, when applied topically, it might be beneficial for taming frizzy hair, but more research is needed. Coconut oil is high in lauric acid. When applied to hair, coconut oil is easily absorbed and can help add moisture to the hair and reduce protein loss.
