Sup hair bros.The recent "innovations" were primarily geared towards the comb back/pompadour type of hairstyle, be it dry or wet look, which has already been popular for several years.
IMHO, think there needs to be a new popular hairstyle to "drive" a new product.
Think that the next haircut trend will be to go short, cropped and textured, with either a blunted fringe or with short bangs. Maybe even with color / highlights to bring out even more texture.
Here are some pics for reference:

Current hair mostly resembles 1st pic now, but I style it even more messy/ spikey on purpose - some of my friends have commented it looks a bit like short anime hair. Really liking this look right now. It's super convenient, all you need is sea salt spray sometimes.
Planning to color it like the 3rd pic in end May right after Reservist.
Unfortunately, for this style there isn't a need for a new product. Any kind of decent holding power wax/clay will do LOL.
I would say this will be popular in the mainstream crowd by 2018. Count on it.
