What is a Styling Powder?

Hair Styling powder is a lightweight styling product that is designed to add hold, texture, volume, and grip to hair while keeping a natural finish. These products are extremely easy to use and produce amazing results with minimal effort.

Best hair styles for Styling Powder

Hair styling powders are extremely versatile and can be used on any hair type, from straight to curly, thick, and thin. Styling Powders excel in thin hair, adding fullness and volume to the hair, giving it a thicker and healthier appearance. Styling Powder can be used to create extreme texture in shorter hair or lift and volume in longer styles.

How to Use Hair Styling Powder

Using hair styling powder is very easy, but there are a few steps that should be followed to make sure you get the most from your styling powder. First, start with bone-dry, clean hair. Any product residue, water, or oils can affect the performance of the Styling Product, so before styling, give your hair a full wash cycle and ensure you dry it thoroughly.

To apply the product, you can either apply it directly to your hair or by shaking the product into your hands. If applying to your hair, gently disperse the product into your hair, ensuring you spread it evenly, then tousle the hair and style as desired. If you prefer, you can apply the product to your hands first, emulsify and distribute as desired. This technique allows for more precision but makes the job a little messier.
