Product distribution! Over the years I have seen and heard so many say that they just can't do their hair the same way once they leave the salon. When I ask about their routine it usually is due to lack of product distribution. So....
1. Hair should always be about 70% dry before applying product, when hair is too wet the product either slips off with excess water or evaporates with it when drying.
2. Apply evenly and liberally. Three spritzes won't cover it. Really get in there, by all means don't go in the other direction and use too much, but you spent the money for it to work right? So, get it in there!!
3. Comb it through!!! this helps the product really distribute everywhere instead of settling in spots.
4. Men!! patting your hair with the product and/or concentrating it in one area isn't going to cut it! lather product through out hair before worrying about styling it. Your hair should be 90% to 100% dry for pomades and waxes. Directions might tell you differently, in my professional experience using pomades and waxes on dry hair is when you get the best results without having to use so much product at one time or having to go back to apply more.
5.The product needs to get in the hair to work appropriately! So... take that fortune out of the cabinet and use it like it needs to be used!
First and foremost, make sure you and your stylist have decided on the right product for your hair and styling needs, not having the right product can also be the culprit. Don't settle for another product because they don't have it in stock, ask when the next order comes in, if another location has it, or research somewhere easily accessible that does. This IS your money and your hair... after all.
Happy Styling
