What is the correct way to use hair clay?

In order to create a hairstyle, many people now use hair clay. Everyone must choose the most suitable hair clay. A good hair clay has many characteristics. First of all, it is not greasy, which is very important. Secondly, it must be easy to wash and not easy to attract dust when applied to the hair, especially it must not cause damage to the hair. In addition to these, the hair clay should have a better smell, which will make people feel happy. So how to use hair clay correctly?

First, how to use hair clay?

After washing your hair, blow dry it according to the texture of the hairstyle you want to achieve. This is critical. Before applying hair clay or wax, you need to use a hair dryer to blow out the hair style. When blowing the hair, aim the air outlet at the roots of the hair to loosen them up first. If you want to apply hair clay, you must blow out the roots of the hair first, otherwise once the hair clay is applied, the hair will be flattened against the scalp. Then blow dry the hair towards the end. The specific method is: use your index finger and middle finger to pinch the hair and bend it in the desired direction. You don't need to make it too curved, just emphasize that the end of the hair is not straight, a little inner arc effect will be fine.

After blowing out the hair into shape, apply hair clay: use one finger to pick up a little hair clay and place it on the fingertips of the other hand, then rub the fingertips on both sides together to spread the hair clay. Then grab your hair. Be careful not to let the hair mud touch the roots and middle of the hair. It is best to only apply it to the ends of the hair. 1-2cm in length is best. Don't use too much. There is no need to apply hair clay to all the ends of your hair. About 1/2 of the hair is enough. This makes it a bit fluffy and messy. Applying too much will easily flatten your hairstyle and make your hair dull, and will also make your hair oily and dirty more easily.

1. When blow-drying your hair, start from the roots, with your fingers pointing downward, holding the hair upside down, and blow at the roots. This will make the hair feel airy and easier to manage.

2. Apply the hair clay evenly on your fingers, spread them apart, and apply it from the roots of the hair along the scalp. Use the gaps between your fingers to create a sense of hair bundles. Don't apply it on the sides, otherwise the head will look too big. Just make the back fluffy to create the layers. Remember not to apply too much, otherwise there will be clumps. Hair application is a delicate job and it is not easy to do and requires practice slowly.

Second, precautions for using hair mud:

1. Remember to use a small amount of hair clay. The more you use, the better the styling effect is not necessarily the case. On the contrary, a small amount of hair clay can make your hair fluffy and not sticky.

2. Do not use hair clay for styling your hair for too long. The longer you use hair clay for styling your hair at one time, the oilier your hair will become and it will not feel light.

3. It is best to take a small amount of hair mud (just dip your fingertips lightly), put it on the fingertips of both hands, and rub it on the roots of the hair like washing your hair. It is best not to stretch long hair outwards, but to knead it into a fluffy style.

Third, the difference between hair mud and hair wax

Hair wax: It is a gel-like or semi-solid oil that can fix hairstyle and make hair shiny and lustrous. It is a kind of improved hairspray. Apply evenly when blow-drying your hair, and don't use too much. The difference between hair clay and hair wax is that using hair clay to style your hair will make it matte, while using hair wax will make it shiny. Moreover, the hair clay has a high styling support, and the hair will not be hard after styling, but it will feel a little sticky.
