You probably know it, you get away from your hairdresser with a perfect haircut and you finally have your hair the way you want it. The next day you want to style your hair again and the look of the day before with no possibility to get back. It may mean that you do not do your hair in the right way or that you use the wrong product. That is not so strange considering the number of different products on the market nowadays. You sometimes no longer see the forest for the trees. To make it a little easier for you, we will tell you which products you should use for certain hairstyles and what exactly those products do.
If you still use such a large pot of yellow chemical material, it is important to immediately call the clean -up service to have it removed from your house. You will probably not reach the hairstyle with that you have when you walk out of the hair salon.
Pompadour
You see the Pompadour a lot in recent years. It can be worn in different ways. Tight, neat and classic or more loose and natural. You can achieve this hairstyle best with a pomad. We guess one water -based pomade Because it is easier to wash out.
Blow your hair after washing in model and apply the pomade. If you have thick hair, use a pomade with a strong hold. Use a high shine for a lot of shine or a low shine for a more matte effect. If your hair is too thick, apply the pomade to somewhat damp hair. You will then be able to style more easily and your hair will shine more. For thinner hair it is best to blow your hair completely dry and then insert the product. Your hair will then have more volume and the hold will be stronger.
Briefly
If you want a short, natural and confused look, use one clay In dry hair. Your hair gets a lot of texture, volume and hold but still keeps a natural look. Apply the clay in dry hair and knead it in shape for the messy effect. Nowadays you see this style with shorter side and backs with more hair on top. You can of course also wear it with more covered side and backs. It's all yours. This style works well for people with wavy hair.
The separation
Just like the Pompadour, the divorce is a hugely popular hairstyle that will probably never disappear completely again. There are two variants. The loose more nonchalant separation with more volume and the classic tight separation. We will both treat.
The classic separation
A hairstyle that is more suitable for people with right hair. It is best to use a product with a strong hold. That can be a pomade or wax are. Which you like best. Use a crest To comb your hair in the desired direction and get a nice separation. Then apply the pomade or wax and possibly comb. With the classic separation, a pomade with a lot of shine is often used. You could use a pomade on both water-based and oil-based.
The casual divorce
A divorce that you often see in men with more stroke in the hair. That is because hair goes with a stroke or curl more his own way and it is often not nice to comb this tightly. This model is best achieved through a fitted To be used or possibly a pomade with a low to medium hold. Hard your hair dry and only model your fingers. You also make the separation with your fingers because a comb makes it too tight. Then apply the paste or pomade to keep the texture and a nice blow. If you have some thinner hair you could also use a clay for more volume.
Slicked Back
A style for the true gentleman is often said. This style actually only works well when you have straight hair. Blow her hair and comb it back in the meantime. Then apply a pomade with a lot of hold. A pomade Works best for this style. This has a lot of hold and a lot of shine. Do you not like that a water-based pomade of course too. If you want a lot of shine, apply it to somewhat damp hair. Possibly also styling with a wax.
Hair forward
A very easy hair style for which you hardly need a hair product. You only have to bring your hair forward with your hands. Do you have thick hair? Just use a little grooming spray Or fit to model your hair. Apply in dry hair. Also an ideal style to hide your coves.
Long hair
If you have longer hair, it is best not to do too much in your hair. You probably want to drop it of course and it must of course continue to look. We guess on a light cream Or use grooming spray. This has a low hold but gives some control over your hair.
