The Hair Thread - Part 3

[leejhong]

Oops my pic here!

Either matte or low shine will do fine for you. Pomade is definitely out as the weight will definitely not allow you to achieve this style.

Your hairlength isn't very long so prestylers would have limited room for performance, to be honest. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't get too. It depends on what is the average hair length that you are keeping. If it's gonna be longer than what you shown, then prestyler is possible too, as it really helps to bunch up the hair to aid subsequent styling and volumizing. What i would recommend is to get one which is lightweight, strong hold. Examples for your consideration will be Gold Digger, PP Clay, EBL Taste Clay. But note that there is no one perfect product that wins all. There will be tradeoffs. Below states my personal opinions for consideration:

1. GD: Strong hold, easy to wash off, easy to apply. But heavy. It might flop somewhere through the day. Solutions to consider can be to complement it with a hairspray or use an approximately right amount to hit what you want.

2. PP Clay: Strong hold, easy to wash off but slightly harder to apply as it is dry texture clay. Comes with slight shine.
3. EBL Taste Clay: Strong hold, creamy texture which allows easier application but slightly harder to wash off.

is there such product as works for John and doesn't work for Peter?

Of course there is. In fact, it applies to skincare products too. Everyone hair texture is different. It is not a mechanical tool whereby applying it in a standard way derives expected results. It works differently on different people's hair.

For example, using pomade on a caucasian's hair and an asian derives different results. What i would like to opine is that my personal observation is the slickback trend is not that evident nowadays. It is still here, not totally eliminated but for asians, i really have to say that it is just not tailored for us. Talk to any stylist and they will tell that to you too.

Yes, of course. We can still go ahead to wear it and pull it off. No one's stopping but ultimately, i am someone who believes that finding the right one (style) for us is the eventual goal and not going after trend. Afterall, trend is ever changing.

Thanks very much - I'm still using the EBL Clay I got from you last year I think lol. I guess I'll still with that for now

Hi I can help with that! Before I can assist, how is your hair? Long short? Thick thin? Straight curly? What kinda look are you going for? Side part or slick back? Matte look or shine look preferred? And what activities are you using it for? Sports, outdoors, indoors, aircon? driving/riding/public transport?

Hope you can tell me your uses so I can recommend you something suitable for your hair and lifestyle, to give you your desired look

additionally, it will really help if you show me pictures of your hair currently, and the look that you desire to have. that will really help me to give you better and more appropriate advice. Thanks!

Sup hair bros.

Went with a short messy cropped hair back in December, now growing it out again until August.

This looks really good (sorry i can't grow the accompany facial hair. Ugggh)

With my hair genetics, i can never achieve perfectly slicked down/back hair. So cest la vie. Messy rock and roll hair ftw!

You wet your hair using water. Then you try combing. See can make the effect Anot.
You need a hair cut too

Pomade/wax Shld work fine.
But largely pomade cause easier to comb.

Me too noob to use comb and pomade. How wish it's like a magical hair product. But it's not.

Still preferred to use the curling brush to blow, style to achieve a quiff then use clay/wax
