Hair styling is all about what you want to achieve with your look: more volume, definition, texture, smoothness or hold. With the right hair styling products, you can target your desired result without weighing your hair down. First, choose what your hair needs, then pick products that match for perfect styling.
Which hair styling products do I need?
The products you need depend mainly on your finish, hold and hair texture. For airy volume, mousse or volumising powder works differently than wax for grip or hairspray for hold. Each styling product has its own role.
Use this guide to get started:
-
Mousse or volumeSpray for more body and movement.
-
Gel, wax, pomade or Paste for grip, shape and more control.
-
Hair styling cream for softer definition and a smoother finish.
-
HairSpray to lock your style as the final step.
If you have curls, first look at definition and desired hold. The strongest formula isn’t always best. A curl cream can enhance shape, while gel or mousse adds extra hold. For example, TIGI Bed Head Curls Rock Amplifier in our range is a curl cream that defines and enhances curls and waves.
For short hair, wax, pomade or Paste can be more useful. For fine hair, lighter products often work better to keep volume. Build up with a small amount instead of combining many styling products at once.
How do I prepare my hair for styling?
Good preparation makes styling more predictable. Start with hair that’s not soaking wet and spread your styling product evenly. Always check if a product is for damp or dry hair; it varies.
Gently blot your hair dry after washing and avoid pulling while detangling. Wet hair is more prone to damage. If your hair is very curly or textured, detangling when wet and conditioned might be better. Match the Manier of your detangler to your hair type.
Apply mousse, cream or another prep product in small amounts. Work in sections for thick hair, so all parts get product. For curls, scrunch instead of combing. For smooth blow-drying, even distribution before you start is key.
Use only as much styling product as needed. If your hair feels heavy or limp, stick to one base product and possibly one finishing product. This keeps styling clear and gives each product a defined role.
How do I protect and style my hair with heat?
If you use a hairdryer, straightener or curling iron, first apply an appropriate heat protectant. Heat can damage the hair fibre; temperature, duration and repeated use matter. A regular hair styling cream is not automatically a heat protectant.
Use a straightener only on dry hair and choose the lowest effective temperature if adjustable. Work with manageable sections and avoid going over the same strand repeatedly. When blow-drying, keep the dryer moving instead of heating one spot for long.
For volume, lift the roots while blow-drying. For smoothness, direct airflow along the lengths. For curls, you can use a diffuser on low to keep the curl shape. Let your hair cool first before gently loosening curls.
If you want extra hold after styling, pick a product designed for that. Schwarzkopf OSiS+ Hold Session Extra Strong Hold HairSpray offers extra strong hold and heat protection up to 230°C according to current info.
