hey just wondering what everyone uses to style their hair. Thought it'd be interesting to know.

Do you use a brush? or a comb? or just your hands? do you use the soft tips of your fingers, palms, or a little bit of your nails? do you use a towel? gel or wax??

PLUS what type of hair do you have? straight curly? long or short?

Ok, lets see. First, I use Matrix Amplify Shampoo and conditioner. Is very good to my hair, love it.

Second, I use three products to style my hair, depending on what I want to do. For extreme hold, Spikerz hair glue works great. For good volume and hold without the hardness, I use ARtec Kiwi piecing paste. It's awesome and is what I use most. Just get your towel dry, get a little bit of paste in your hands, and run it through your hair. My hair is short so this works great. Then you just do what you want with it, and it stays. Just go over that with a good hairspray. Mostly just use my fingers and hands and maybe a comb to put things where they belong.

i use gatsby clay wax for maximum hold and matt look. i sometime use Brylcream Anti Dandruff gel.

since i have curly hair, i stlye my hair with my fingers so that my curls stay curly. but if i have short buzz cut hair i use a brush to massage my scalp.

I do change my shampoo every few months or so, my favorite is Phytopanama, but now I'm using Philip B white Truffle, it's nice. For conditioner, I use Bumble & Bumble Deeep.

Styling...Well, I change my hair style every 4 month or so, so each style I use different products. When it's really short, I use Sebastian Molding Mud, this stuff is the best! when it's longer, to spike it like Brad's fight club style I mix gel with Bed Head Manipulator and use my fingers.

Now it's longer so I'm using a brush, and use a mix of Kiehl's creme with silk and Philip B gel.

i think that with regards to men's hair, its all about wax..

i love the effect it gives and ive tried millions of waxed based products, some very pricey and some very cheap. Loreal's Fructis Shine on wax is cheap and rocks and adds great shine to the hair..

i have mid length hair, am thinking of cutting it soon..either way for the best in hair styling..its all about the hair straighterners

Why do you need hair straightners if your hair is short??

alot of short hair styles on models etc are done with thin plated ceramics..

adds a great effect, especially for people with thickish hair
