Hair fixatives and finishers Bright

Hair styling products and finishes, the desired style at your fingertips

We've all woken up with unruly or limp hair at some point, requiring a lot of time to style. Other days, however, we don't have enough time for a voluminous and well-defined hairstyle and simply throw it up. A perfect hairstyle is essential for a polished look. We all want to look our best under any circumstances, so we turn to our best allies: cosmetic products, which help us improve our appearance quickly and effectively.

High-quality hair products are constantly evolving, so the problem of how to achieve a perfect, long-lasting hairstyle is now solved. The secret lies in using specific finishing products designed to accelerate the drying or styling process. These cosmetics are also designed to protect the hair from heat and, most importantly, to hold the style in place. Hairsprays are the go-to products for achieving the hairstyle we desire, so it's important to understand the key characteristics of each type.

Types of fixatives

Before starting the process of styling our hairstyle, we must know the main characteristics of each of the products and know the uses of each item, in order to achieve the best definition of the hairstyle.

• Hair gel is a very versatile product that can achieve spectacular effects, from flyaway ends to impeccable updos. It's commonly used to style short hair, although it's also useful for taming unruly strands in long hair. Hair gel is usually formulated with a high alcohol content, an ingredient that excessively dries out our hair. Furthermore, once hair gel dries, it doesn't allow for reshaping, as the hair becomes fixed and inflexible.
• Mousse should always be applied to damp hair and is perfect for adding volume and definition. It's available with or without alcohol, but be careful with alcohol-based mousses as they can dry out your hair. It's ideal for curly hair, as it allows you to control the definition and hold you want. To achieve a wet look, let your hair air dry, and if you prefer looser curls, you can brush your hair afterward.
• Waxes are ideal for achieving a matte finish with medium hold, depending on the product. They are used to create a relaxed look and are generally made with paraffin. They can be applied to damp hair and left to dry naturally, or to dry hair for better definition of the cut.
• Pomades allow you to reshape your hairstyle throughout the day, and there are two types depending on the desired finish. Oil-based pomades are the original formula and are more difficult to remove from the hair, while water-based pomades are very similar to oil-based pomades but easier to wash out.
• There's a middle ground between pomades and waxes, known as creams because of their texture. They usually have a medium to strong hold and give hair a natural shine.
• Styling water provides soft hold and vitality to all hair types without weighing it down. It's ideal for achieving a natural-looking hairstyle.

Tips for a more manageable hairstyle

• Combing your hair before washing it will prevent unnecessary tangling. Afterward, we recommend applying conditioner near the roots and gently massaging your scalp. When drying, pat gently with a towel instead of rubbing.
• When detangling your hair, separate it into small sections and detangle the ends first.
• Use a wide-toothed wooden or hard rubber comb and gently comb through small sections of hair.
• It's important to know your face shape before choosing the right hairstyle, as each hairstyle has a different effect on each person.
• It is advisable to wash your hair properly, as well as choosing a good shampoo and conditioner.
• When applying any styling product, it is important to nourish the hair with an oil to regenerate dry and lifeless hair.
• Your diet will also help your scalp look more beautiful.
