Gel hair back
Nowadays, styling is more and more in the foreground for men too. Well-known stars, such as professional soccer player Christiano Ronaldo, who never stands on the soccer field without his hair gelled back, are living this trend.
What is the wet look?
- Wet look means, as the term suggests, that your hair is styled so that it appears wet or damp.
- Not only hair that is gelled back is referred to as a wet look, but any styling in which the hair has the wet look.
How do you gel the hair back and how do you get the wet look?
To give your hair the wet look, you should use a high-quality hair gel, as the effect is usually short-lived with cheap products. With high-quality products, on the other hand, your styling will reliably last all day. Be sure to use hair gel and not hair wax. Hair wax is very suitable for that hair to style, but not so well suited if you want to miss the wet look.
- In order to give the hair the wet look, it must first be naturally moist. Make sure, however, that your hair is not too wet, otherwise the hairstyle can easily collapse again.
- Now spread the hair gel on your palms and work it into your hair. Do not use too much hair gel, otherwise there is a risk that the hairstyle will collapse. In addition, the hair can look greasy if you use too much hair gel.
- Now you can simply gel your hair back or style it however you like.
- Now let the hair dry so that the hairstyle sets.
- You can also fix the gelled hair with hair lacquer. Simply spray this on the hairstyle after the hair has dried. This also strengthens the hold of the hairstyle.
You like gelled hair but aren't sure how the gel look really works ...
The wet look is particularly suitable for shorter hair, as it can be easily gelled backwards. Long hair, on the other hand, collapses more easily and can look greasy.
