How to Apply for Maximum Hold and Style

For best results, start with wet or towel-dried hair. Squeeze a small amount of gel into your palm, then rub your hands together to evenly distribute the product. Work the gel through your hair, starting at the roots and moving towards the ends, making sure every strand is coated.

Style your hair into your desired shape using your fingers or a comb. Want a stronger, defined look? Allow your hair to air dry and resist the urge to touch it while it sets.

Can I use this gel on both wet and dry hair?

Absolutely—you can apply this styling gel to either wet or dry hair, depending on your routine. For best results, work a small amount evenly through your hair, starting at the roots and moving towards the ends. Then style and shape as desired. Leave it to dry naturally for a strong, defined look that lasts.

Styling Tip for a Natural Look

For a more laid-back, natural finish, work the gel through damp hair and let it dry on its own—no hair dryer necessary. This simple approach helps your style hold while keeping things effortlessly relaxed, minus any crunch or stiffness.
