Both also somehow similar eh. With the price fixed at same price range. Which one is better for our weather?

If have to only get 1 out of the 2 products, which one to go for?

Can Ryan reply? Since he is selling both products
I would say both are suitable for our climate and weather and both are mostly organic and paraben-free as well .

Some differences to note : blumaan has a higher holding strength which beeswax has a greater versatility and ability to restyle.
Blumaan has a mint scent while beeswax smells like fragrant peach. I would prefer beeswax smell .

Blumaan has a heat-protectant in built. Good for pre-styling while beeswax is better as a finishing product.

Both are equally easy to apply into hair.

For me , I would use blumaan as a pre-styler then finish off with beeswax :) perfect combo . Applying blumaan again for me would be an overkill.

In my opinion , beeswax seem to weigh less in terms of density and what you call weighing your hair down when applying too much product.

I would say blumaan is an all-in-all kind of product . Works as a pre-styler as well as a finishing product , while beeswax is better off applying into mostly dried hair as a finishing product .

the same old questions that people ask.

go back a few page and read.

you need pre styling spray that can create volume.
blow dry, with movement in the roots, you can create volume.
then style with a wax/clay

then you're done.

there's a few options if claymation don't work
Dynamite clay
Mister pomp beeswax
Vantachi clay
the soon to be release BluMaan wax (Oct then will come)

You should also consider the use of a finishing hairspray. With it, it helps to hold and fix the hairstyle in place throughout the day. Especially so in SG, where there is high humidity, using a finishing hairspray to allow hairstyle to last longer is essential IMO. However, there is no hard and fast rule and there will be some people who choose to omit it.

thanks guys.
any recommendations for pre styling and finishing spray?

Hmm. A small amount of volume la. Not alot of you compare to Pre styler that are designed for volume Haha
But good if you need extra hold.
