Hi, I have short spikey hair & I want that out of bed look. What’s the best way to get it?

Nowadays the general look is swaying towards the messy matte look as apposed to the high gloss finish so I will show you how to achieve the look that is like Prince Harry, Gordon Ramsay or the very popular Calvin Klein model Mark Wahlberg .
When looking at a product the amount of shine which you see on the product will be the amount of shine gained once the product is applied to the hair.
Always ensure that hair is dry or at least towel dried before using matte products as they will go on the hair much better.
When applying matte products ensure that the product is warm (rubbing your hands together quickly or use a hairdryer) this will allow the product to adhere to the hair more easily.
The best products which will enable you to achieve the look are :
1 American crew fibre , a great matte fibrous product which creates a good hold whilst retaining a pliable finish.
2 Matrix dirty trix (a personal favorite of mine) goes into the hair so easily gives maximum hold and is perfect for messy unkempt styles.
3 Another great dry matte product is chill ed cake, the branding on this product really is cool and they havent missed out on any quality to , this matte paste is perfect for the dry spikes and has an excellent hold factor.
4 One product that may not necessarily be as well known, but is just as good is manik shaper . An ideal wax that gives your hair firm hold and drys to a matt finish.
5 Finally we move onto a brand new product from Tigi it is the matte seperation wax which is the thickest of the products listed therefore would suit finer hair giving it a thicker choppier look.
So why not save yourself £££’s and visit site our to purchase these products?
