Where these numbers come from

The 6 products ranked here carry 20,376 reviews at Ulta and Sephora. We searched them for frizz and read the newest matching reviews, up to 40 per product and store, posted between Jan 2022 and Oct 2026.

A review counts only when the reviewer used the product themselves. We drop reviews written in exchange for a free product or a sweepstakes entry (0 on this page), and products that are no longer sold.

Ulta also shows reviews first posted on brands' own websites. They run much more positive than store reviews of the same products (across 19 products with both, 76% of brand-site reviewers said the product solved the problem, against 55% of Ulta shoppers), so we show them on product cards but never count them.

Because we searched for the problem, people who had it are overrepresented. Compare products with each other rather than reading a share as your own odds.

Skin type, skin tone and age splits use what reviewers chose on Sephora's review form (and age on Ulta's when given). We only show a split when enough reviewers fall on each side.

Amazon buttons appear only on products that most reviewers here say fix the problem (at least 60%, with enough reviews to trust it). Everything else gets no buy link.

An AI model labels each review against a fixed list of points, and we spot-check the labels before publishing. We publish counts, never the reviews themselves.

Questions buyers ask

Which hair mask works for frizzy hair?

Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Mask has the best record (28 of 29), followed by OUAI Treatment Mask (49 of 56). OUAI Bond Repair Balm Mask is perfect at 9 of 9 but rests on a small group, and the ranking weighs sample size, so it sits third.

Is OUAI Treatment Mask good for frizzy hair?

Mostly yes: 49 of 56 shoppers with frizzy hair said it left their hair smoother, softer and less frizzy. More shoppers with frizzy hair weighed in on it than on any other mask here.

Which of these hair masks are sold on Amazon?

Amika Soulfood Nourishing Mask, Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair Mask and Amika Smooth Over Treatment Mask are sold on Amazon by the brand or Amazon itself, and so is the leader, Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Mask, which is also the best pick sold on Amazon. OUAI Treatment Mask is sold there through third-party sellers, so check who the seller is. We found no official Amazon listing for OUAI Bond Repair Balm Mask, so it has no buy link here.

Does Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair Mask work for frizzy hair?

Often, though its record is weaker than the four masks above it: 30 of 41 shoppers with frizzy hair said it left their hair smoother, softer and less frizzy. Amika Smooth Over Treatment Mask sits close to it at 21 of 29.
