to my YouTube channel and welcome to this new video. Now, I am amazed I've never done
this video before. It um...It is super simple. It's so basic. It's actually a bit of a formula;
a formula to perfect hair styling, 3 stages that I go through every single day. I switch
different products into each stage but I always do this, and I should say this will work for
all types of hair and for all types of guy unless you're bald. I'm so sorry but please
do subscribe. I've got more for you here. This is just about you working...kind of what
works for you and what you want from your hair styling routine.
Step 1 is prep, and for me really, this is probably the most important step. This is
when you're gonna take your hair from its natural state into something more in line
with how you're gonna be styling it. Now for me, my hair is very fine. It's really fly
away. So I use a pre-styling product, a product that we're going to use before styling to
really thicken and also add volume. But if you're a guy that's got really curly hair
then you might want to have something that's smoothing; same goes if you got coarse hair.
So for me, I'm going to use a thickening product and I'm going to get it straight through root
to tip. Now, I know that a lot of you guys either don't have a hairdryer or won't want
to use a hairdryer, but really in the pre-styling phase it's going to be a huge help. The heat
helps to manipulate the hair to allow you to put it in different ways. It also helps
to activate the product you're using, so to really warm them up and allow your hair to
be moved. And I'm going to go for a medium heat and a fast speed. Right, there you go.
You can see I've got volume. My hair is looking thicker. It's looking fuller. You can see
really my hair, I mean it sits very naturally this way, but in adding heat and adding a
pre-styler you're starting to manipulate the hair and move it into the direction you want
which ultimately will make it easier for styling. Now step 2 is styling and you might be thinking,
well actually, the product I used in step 1, so in the prep stage, has done a pretty
good job. But what this styling stage is gonna do is to really add structure and definition
to the style. You can see that just with this sort of thickening cream my hair is not going
to stay. So with a styling product I'm going to decide what kind of hold and finish I want.
Be that on the shiny scale from something very matte to something that's not shiny at
all, all the way up to something really very glossy, like a grease or a really sort of
shine pomade. So I'm going to use a bit of a putty here. But guys you'll see loads on
ManForHimself.com, my blog. There is so much going on in terms of products, there's reviews,
there's ratings against shine and hold and also some user ratings. And so you can see
what you guys also think and I will link it up there. Now if I could give you any tip
whatsoever about the styling stage, it's all about layering. Don't be popping all that
product straight into the hair. You're gonna over saturate the hair. You're gonna make
it heavy. You're gonna make it look greasy. Start with a little bit of product. You're
in no rush, hopefully. Really emulsify it - emulsify is when you take the product from
that thick solid state into something either creamy, oily, or liquid depending on the product
you're using. And for styling it's important to totally coat the hair. So, because my hair
is only styled this way I'm gonna first style it that way in terms of application, just
coating the hair completely. But now this is about me putting that style in, so pushing
across. And that's when I'm going to start to add a little bit more product in just because
I want to layer this up. If I had just gone straight in with this product and hadn't done
the pre-styling phase, my hair wouldn't have the same volume. It wouldn't have the same
thickness. And when you're happy with that style, the 3rd stage or step is about finishing.
Now, a lot of you guys won't like hairsprays, you just kind of wanna leave your hair nice
and loose, nice and natural, but this is where you get into the perfection phase. So you
can still use a little bit of the product you've just used, just onto your hands, and
you might literally just use this to pick up some fly aways. So, just with your fingertips,
picking the fly aways up and sweeping. You might also use something like a shine spray,
so something just to add the gloss to the hair or you might do as I do, hairspray onto
the hand - a light mist. Take the hand and I brush just on the surface of the hair. And
I always say this, but a finishing product for me is not a styling product. If you are
using a hairspray and then you put your hands in, it turns into a styling product and hairsprays
in general will make your hair look wet, it might look crispy, it'll dry it out.
Whoo! And that is it, the 3 stages to perfect...Is it perfect? It's good enough to go hair. So
there you go guys, the 3 stages to hair styling I always use. It is really a go to for me,
a bit of a formula. I always think of it in that, prep, the styling and the finishing.
And it's also how I sort of categorize my products. So, if you sort of keep in that
mindset and always think of it as going through a bit of a process, I'm sure you will get
there. Let me know in the comments below sort of what you like to use and perhaps styling
and finishing or if you've got other ways of doing it. I always like to hear. But thank
