A new trend is emerging in the world of hair styling for men. More and more brands are releasing their own styling powder. A powder that you sprinkle into your hair to get more volume and texture. Powder in your hair, that doesn't sound so appealing. And frankly, we were a bit skeptical about it too. Meanwhile, we have some in our assortment so we were able to try some. Skeptical we are no longer, we are pleasantly surprised. The volume and thickness you can get in your hair is unprecedented. It can become the ultimate pre-styler, for everyone. First, let's tell you exactly what it is.
What is a styling powder?
A styling powder or texture powder looks like baby powder and often comes in a bottle that allows you to sprinkle it over your hair. The powder contains rough particles of silica silylate or rice powder that create a huge texture by creating friction between hair strands. silica silylate also absorbs a lot of moisture and oils which creates a matte effect and increases the volume of the hair considerably. Often particles of kaolin clay are also added to the powders which further increases volume and thickness. So it is a product that can do absolutely no harm to your hair.
Advantages of a styling powder
The product is the perfect solution if you often suffer from a flat hairstyle or one that sags quickly. But it can also be a solution for men who are prone to oily hair. It keeps hair soft all day and prevents knots from forming in your hair. You use it mainly as a pre-styler but can also be used alone when you don't need a lot of hold.
Who is it suitable for?
The styling powder will work best for men with thin hair or when you suffer from hair loss. You then use the product as a pre-styler which increases your hair enormously in volume. Your hair seems to get thicker. You don't see the powder in the end. The advantage is also that it does not dirty your hands. You just pat it off when you are done.
How to use styling powder
- Blow-dry your hair
- Sprinkle the powder on your hair. Use too much quickly? Then sprinkle some on your hands and distribute it through your hair.
- Try to get the powder to the roots and the beginning of the hair as much as possible.
- Want to reactivate the styling powder later? Just give it a good rub through your hair and a mountain of volume is created again.
