What hair style do you want to create? What about the hair quality? How will you use the hair styling product? After deciding the dosage form and the usage method, the hardness of the finish and its feel as well as the aroma must be decided. First, let me introduce you what kinds of products are sold.
Type of Form
Styling products have different dosage forms depending on their usage.
1. Hair creams
A cream which has a weak setting power (the power of fixing the hair) and with a treatment type that does not wash away is called a hair cream. Generally it comes in tubes.
2. Hair waxes
Ranging from products with a weak to an exceedingly strong setting power, a wax is a hair cream with a fairly high viscosity that is armed with setting power. Generally they come in jar containers.
3. Hair sprays
A spray is an aerosol can that is filled with a propellant, such as a LP gas or a CFC liquid set or treatment. This spray can be applied to the hair without the need to get your hands dirty.
4. Foam
A spray is an aerosol can that is filled with a propellant, such as a LP gas or a CFC liquid set or treatment. It leaves the can as foam so it can be used when you want to apply it evenly to the whole of the head.
5. Mists (finger pump)
A mist is a liquid state setting agent or treatment that comes in a mist container and which is sprayed onto the hair. Like the hair spray, these mists can be used without getting hands dirty.
6. Gels
A gel is a setting agent or treatment that is put into gel form. The special feature of a gel is that it doesn't wash away easily so it is easy to apply to certain areas.
7. Lotions
A gel which flows a little more easily is known as a lotion. The special feature of a lotion is that it can be applied to the hair uniformly.
