Styling Products Once you have a hairstyle you like, you'll want to keep it
in shape, and create some new looks too. It's fun to wear your hair different
ways! Styling products and tools put you in charge of a beauty all your own.
Balm
For adding shine, manageability or help in holding a style, balms banish
frizzies by taming unmanageable curls and fly-aways. Apply to wet hair
sparingly, first rubbing balm between your palms, and then fingering it through
sections of your hair.
Detanglers
Designed to help you get a comb through either wet or dry hair, detanglers
function much like leave-in conditioners. They're great for kids and give you a
"no tantrum" approach to children's hair care.
Gel
Some gels are thick and heavy, often called "straightening gels."
Others are light, almost like a liquid, and act as "smoothing gels" to
give shape and shine to all hair types. Gels can create a wet look or give hair
structure as it dries. Use on wet hair before styling. Also, apply to the roots
of dry hair to add volume.
Hairspray Hold on to your style:
 |
Aerosol
sprays: Fast drying with fine particles that cover a broad area easily. |
|
Pump
sprays: These "spritz" type sprays are wetter and take longer to
dry. Great for holding specific areas. |
|
Freezing
sprays: Designed for very firm hold, they "fix" hard-to-hold hair. |
Molding mud
Thick and heavy, for body in specific areas of the hair. Use it to create curls,
finger waves or spikes. For a "wet look", apply without combing
through.
Mousse
Foamy body-builder that's ideal for adding volume to fine, thin hair. Use
sparingly. Apply to one palm and rub hands together. Then apply to the roots of
the hair to help lift the strands up and away from the scalp.
Pomade
Pomades tame curly hair by texturizing, separating and adding shine. Use on any
hair type except very fine hair as pomade can weigh it down. To apply, swipe one
finger into a pomade, rub it onto palms and fingers, distribute through hair.
Shiners
Shiners coat the hair shaft with a reflective substance and help to combat the
frizzies. Sprays, serums, or light gels, they "calm" the hair and
maximize luster. Apply to palms, rub hands together, use fingers to distribute
evenly through wet or dry hair.
Volumizers
In either lotion or spray form, volumizers coat each strand to give hair a
thicker, fuller look. Great for flat, limp hair. Use on wet hair before blow
drying or on dry hair at the roots to freshen and lift your style |
