Men’s hair care can sometimes be difficult to understand fully. This is because while women’s hair care products receive a great deal of attention and advertisement, men’s care doesn’t receive nearly enough time. This has led to the assumption that the presence of men’s hair care products is nonexistent. This is certainly not the case, and today we’ll be examining the products that will give you the unique style you want.
Shampoo & Conditioner
These are rudimentary products that are used by everyone. Choosing the right brand is relatively easy, depending on how much you’re willing to spend. It’s a good idea to stay away from shampoos and conditioners that contain paragons and sulfates, as those tend to strip the hair of its natural oils. Some prefer shampoo & conditioner combos and leave-in conditioners, which are essential for men with longer hair.
Gel, Pomades, & Wax
If you have a shorter hairstyle that requires maximum hold, these are some of your best options. Gel is favorable for hairstyles that need a firm hold as well as a thick texture. Gels are relatively inexpensive but nowhere nearly as popular as they once were during the 1990s. Pomades and waxes give you a considerable amount of hold and have more movement than gels and hairsprays do.
Mousse & Hairspray
These implements are best for a hold that’s stable but easy to brush out and remove without damaging the structural integrity of your hair. They provide a softer hold and allow you to have that “wet” look throughout the course of a day.
Pastes & Creams
The options for holds are many when it comes to men’s individual hairstyles. Pastes provide a firmer hold than waxes and pomades and provide more versatility than many men’s haircare products. Paste can be used for just about every hairstyle and is water-based, making it easy to wash out. If you’re someone with coarse, thick, or Curley hair, creams will soon become your best friend. They provide a natural shine and allow for more control.
Dry Shampoo
Described by some as the definitive tie-saver, dry shampoo comes in a variety of forms, such as powders, aerosol sprays, and even creams. They’re very effective against oily or damaged hair. While it’s a good time saver, it’s not recommended to use it daily. Continue to use your regular shampoo and conditioner on a regular basis.
