Regardless of the length of the hair, every man who takes care of his appearance wants it to always be neat and beautifully shaped. In achieving that goal, the best “weapon” is a hair wax, which will solve the problem with a messy hairstyle.
Hair styling for men can be very demanding if adequate products are not used. Unlike a gel, the wax has a light formula, does not create a feeling of heaviness and can be used daily to create different hairstyles. It enables a great flexibility in work and gives good results, which is a sufficient reason to be seen more and more frequently on the shelves of professional hairdressers. Although it is most often used by men, the hair wax is intended for everyone who wants to have a neat and beautifully shaped hairstyle.
What Is the Hair Wax for
- Soothes unruly hair, which is especially noticeable after waking up. Thanks to this product, you can easily tame hair that “flies in all directions” and fix the hairstyle.
- It is used for fine hair styling and defining the desired shape. It is especially suitable for creating modern hairstyles.
- Unlike some other hair-sticking products, the hair wax gives extra volume, the natural look and flexibility. After its use, the hair does not look greasy.
- Thanks to its composition, the wax-styled hair gets a discreet shine and a more attractive look.
- This product can also be used to mattify hair. There are special formulas for hair waxes that are created to give a matte finish and can be used by people with oily hair.
- Hair wax is not only used by men. Many women adore this product and often use it for hair styling, curl shaping and achieving a greater hair volume.
How to Use the Hair Wax
The hair wax is very easy to use and can be applied to completely dry or damp hair. Since this product is based on wax, as its name suggests, it needs to be warmed slightly before putting it on the hair. You will achieve the best effect if you first take a small amount of the product with your fingers and rub it on your palms. Apply the wax evenly, running your fingers through your hair and shape the desired hairstyle with your hands. If you use the wax on completely wet hair, then blow dry it at the lowest speed by directing the air flow in the direction you want the hair to fall out.
Be very careful and do not overdo the amount of wax, so that your hair does not look greasy. Instead of applying too much wax, it is always better to add a certain amount later if necessary.
Wax or Gel
There are many different products available on the market today that are used for the same purpose – to shape a hairstyle. The dilemma is no longer just about choosing the brand and strength of the hair firming effect. The real challenge is to choose the right product for a particular hair type.
What exactly to choose: cream, pomade, gel, rubber, foam, wax or hairspray? It depends on the effect you want to achieve. All of these products are used to style hair, but not all are equally effective for the same purposes.
Apart from the texture, the main difference between gel and hair wax is that the wax does not dry. That is why it is suitable for styling more flexible hairstyles, for which it is important that the hair is nicely arranged, and still remains fluttery. If you just want to soothe your hair and get your curls and hair in order, use the wax. Unlike classic hair gels, which are not recommended for frequent use, you can use the wax every day. If necessary, use it several times a day, to fix the existing or create a new hairstyle.
Hair gel gives a stronger firming effect and you can use it to make the craziest hairstyles. Thanks to that ability and the famous “hedgehog” hairstyle, this product has gained great popularity. We will write about the advantages and ways of using the hair gel in one of the following posts.
How to Choose the Best Hair Styling Product
Wax is a great choice if you want to style your hair nicely and keep your hair lush. The offer of these products is large and is growing day by day. To choose the best wax for your hair, think about what you want to achieve when shopping. The best hair wax for men is the one that suits his hair type and the effect he wants to achieve.
1. Hair Volume Wax
If you have thin and sparse hair, you need a product that will give volume to your hairstyle. In that case, the wax is a better choice than the gel and you can use it every day, because it has a light texture. Our proposal is OSMO Wax Pomade, a hair styling cream based on beeswax, which is used to create hairstyles of different textures and giving hair extra a volume and high shine. If you are looking for a matte wax that will give thin hair the volume and definition, choose OSMO Matte Clay Wax for styling hair with a matte effect. This product also contains beeswax and can be used on thin and weak hair, because it is not very aggressive.
2. Salvation for Greasy Hair
Matte hair wax is the best option for men who have oily hair. It is also a good choice for those who do not want their hair to shine a lot. OSMO Matte Clay Extreme Wax is intended for styling hair that needs very strong fixing and styling. That is why it is an ideal wax for curly hair, which requires a strong styling, while retaining flexibility. An additional advantage of this product is the ability to eliminate static electricity, which often occurs during combing and hair styling.
3. Wax for Strong and Curly Hair
If you have thick and coarse hair, you probably have a “problem” every morning – how to tame unruly hair. OSMO Aqua Strong Shaping Wax can become your best morning friend. It can be used on dry or wet hair. It is dissolved in water, which is why it is especially suitable for creating hairstyles on wet hair, immediately after showering. In addition to the effect of strong styling, thanks to the water-based formula, OSMO Aqua-Wax hydrates and refreshes the hair, giving it high shine. If applying this wax, you will easily achieve the effect of “wet, slicked-back hair.”
Hair wax provides the opportunity to create an unlimited number of modern and classic hairstyles. This is one of the reasons why men who try this product once completely forget about others, especially the gel. This is a sure sign that this product should also be found in your hair styling collection. Have you used hair wax before? What are your experiences?
