It does sound interesting, however I've rarely worked with children believe it or not, my favorite population is senior patients, love working with them, so rewarding...
I know what you mean. I found some good anti frizz stuff - Bamboo Shine or something like that. Bamboo something. And something else...Living Proof leave in Conditioner. I have to do the same though in the summer I'll go every 12 because I figure there is no point. I did something pretty cool...I let my hair dry in a side braid, I blew dry a little bit of the top and my bangs...right before I left for work I straightened the ends of my hair that was poking out of the braid. Then...later I took the braid out when it was dry and straightened the end sections of my hair again...It looked awesome! It looked even better the next day. No product but some oil before i put the braid in and some shine spray when I took it out.
