Pomade, Paste, or Clay? Which Suits Your Hairstyle?

There comes a time in every man’s life where he needs to fend for himself. Gone are the days of your mom picking out your clothes and hair products, and in are the days of independence and decision-making. At time, full of freedom and maybe a little doubt. How are you supposed to know which hair product suits your style or hair type? While girls have grown up watching YouTube hair and makeup tutorials, boys spent that time learning how to get to the next level of Minecraft. Now is the time to educate yourself on which products work best for you. Trust us, it will make styling your hair a breeze!

POMADE: For the man that has a slick style. POMADE runs on the “wet” side of hair products and allows you to mold your hair with a sheen finish. Best for slicked back styles, side parts, low-pompadours and even textured crew cuts.  If you are going for a Wet Look, apply to wet hair and comb through. For more hold, dry hair into desired shape and then apply to hair and use a comb to finish your look.

PASTE: With more shine than CLAY and less shine than POMADE – PASTE is the perfect product for almost anyone, and a great place to start for beginners. This water-soluble formula will add definition while allowing movement throughout the hair. PASTE can even be applied to wet hair and blow dried to add volume to your look.

CLAY: This is the perfect product to add texture, grit and even volume. With a matte finish and strong foundation, CLAY will keep your style in shape. This is an especially great product during the summer months as it absorbs oil and prevents moisture from penetrating your strands.

HAIR SPRAY: Although mostly used as a finishing product, HAIR SPRAY can be used to create your style as well. A fine mist will lock in any style, or use a layering technique to help your create a multi-faceted style.
