Battling frizz is a constant struggle for girls with curls. But on your wedding day, unruly hair should be the last thing on your mind. According to curl expert and senior stylist at DevaChan Salon in New York City Mia Emilio, brides with curly hair should stay clear from using hair products containing sulfates since they tend to dry out curls, leaving your hair brittle and extremely frizzy. Instead, opt for conditioning and hydrating products in the weeks leading up to your wedding. And on your big day, prep your bridal hairstyle with products that contain oils like Cupuaçu seed, coconut, Argan, shea, olive, and Jojoba — these ingredients will lock in moisture.

Lucky for you, we tested a few of the best frizz-fighting products so you don’t have to. Here are five finds that will keep your curls hydrated, frizz-free and full of life on one of the most important days of your life!

Carol’s Daughter Marula Curl Therapy Softening Hair Mask: Use this deep conditioner once a week in the months leading up to your wedding to achieve soft, bouncy and flawless curls. It’s best to completely coat your hair with this mask for optimal results — so women with thick and coarse hair, beware. One container may only last a month (or less). ($24, available at Beauty.com)
