Guide To Hairstyling Products
More than any time in history there exists a plethora of styling products that can tame even the unruliest of hair. There are mousses and creams, gels and pastes, sprays and serums, pomades and lotions. Choosing a product for hairstyling is even more difficult if your hair happens to fall into more than one category; as an example, if your hair is fine, fragile from coloring, and hard to hold. With so much to consider, just how does a gal (or guy) find the appropriate styling product for their particular type of hair? With any luck, this guide will help you make sense of the clutter that has become the hairstyling aisle of your favorite drugstore or salon.
What Type of Hair Do You Have?
Before you can find the right hairstyling product for you, you have to understand your own hair type, including the current condition of your hair and what you want it to do. Fine hair may seem to be thin even if you have a lot of it because it has very little (or sometimes no)natural body, and is difficult to style because it will not curl or hold a style well at all and this only gets worse when the weather is damp or humid. Hair that is coarse may appear out of control and wiry, and typically requires a greater amount of time to style; some coarse hair may turn into a mop of frizz without provocation. For those who have normal hair, count yourself in the minority.
The styling product you need will also be determined by the action you want your hair to take, such as straightening curly hair, curling straight hair, defining curls in curly hair, or controlling frizz. The condition of your hair should also be taken into account when selecting the right hairstyling product. Is your hair too oily or too dry? Do the ends of your hair look like a nightmare with split ends and damage? Have you abused your hair with coloring and permanent waves? Your styling product should work with your hair type and hair condition to make your hair behave the way that you want it to.
Beyond Hairspray – Typical Hairstyling Products
Now that you know what you want to accomplish with your hair, lets look at the products that can help you achieve the hairstyle you want. Typical hairstyling products include:
Heat protection. Styling with heat (straightening irons, hot rollers, curling irons and blow dryers) can cause damage to healthy hair and increase the damage of already damaged hair. Heat protection styling products work by adding a coating to the hair that helps to protect it from heat styling, usually in a spray form.
Mousse. Mousse is a light styling foam that leaves the hair soft while providing control of frizz and adding some hold. There are mousses that are formulated to add volume to fine or thin hair, provide curl defining properties to curly hair, or add the illusion of thickness to thin hair.
Shine serum. Dry or damaged hair lacks luster and shine, which is the purpose of using a shine serum product. Many shine serums have a built in conditioner, but most just contain silicone that sits on the hairs outer surface.
Smoothers. A smoothing cream or spray is used for smoothing frizzy hair. Most smoothing creams are applied to the ends of the hair so that the hair can be set in a particular style. Most smoothing creams or sprays are leave in products.
Gels. For extra hold or volume, styling gels are ideal. There are gels that are useful for achieving the wet look that is popular from time to time. Do not use gel if you have fine hair that is limp because gel will weigh the hair down even more, or if your hair is curly because gels can cause the hair to tangle and mat.
Waxes or hair pomade. New generation hair waxes and pomades are good for taming flyaway hair, or for adding texture to popular layered hairstyles.
With so many new products hitting the store and salon shelves, shuffling through the mix to find the best hairstyling products can be challenging at best. Be sure to ask your stylist for personal recommendations if you are still feeling lost in the sea of products that are available.
