Do all the testing i'll tell you the products that are going to work honestly now mooses? What are they generally? A mousse comes in a can, it might be called a mousse or it might be called a foam. It will be in a pressurized container, which will shoot out a little mound of foam or mousse into your hand. Another why? Why do you want to be using a mousse? Mousses are great for volume, thickening products, sea salt sprays are not going to give you the kind of volume that a moose is going to give you, and this was a hairstyle. I did with a mousse which you are going to see coming up now, who can use a mousse? Anyone can use a mousse if you've got fine high here. If you've got sort of thinning here, you can use a mousse, it's going to help to provide body. It'S going to wrap the hair and it's going to give it this really great structure to then go on and style. If you've got coarse hair, if you've got thick hair, you can also use a mousse and the five steps i'm going to talk about are going to help you do that also curly haired, guys hi. I salute you, we have it here guys and the sort of the way that you're going to activate it. You might use a diffuser on the hairdryer, but it's going to make the most of those curls. This is not about straightening those gorgeous curls out. It'S about making the most of it, which mooses to use. Now there are so many mooses i'm going to make a link down below it's going to tell you some of the best mooses that i've used, give you the best prices, but on manfromself.com i have a full section dedicated to mooses and if you click the link, It'S going to give you it from low to high price some of my favorites and it's a v05 one. It'S called a form, it's cheap, it's cheerful! It works, maybe slightly more drying. Um also bumble and bumble had a great one, full form thickening mousse, it's discontinued. The soft form mousse, not so great um, who else the macgyver one macgyver by evil, is the product i'm going to be using this video. I absolutely love it big, voluminous hair, huge volume and a mousse which i think is perfect evil as a brand. It'S also great around the 20 pound mark, sometimes cheaper. It will be on man from self.com um around about this sort of 20 plus mark, but i think it's very much worth it for 200 mils. Okay, i'm going to show you how i style with mooses musai, always five steps, and the first thing i would say, is start with damp hair step. One is to always shake this, because it's in a can it's a pressurized container so shaking it. It'S gon na ensure that it all comes out as it should. If you don't shake it, then you're going to get this shake shake shake. Second step is the amount you want, a small mound. You don't want a mountain, you want a mound, so something about that. It does grow, and if this is not enough, you can put more in start small work up step. Three is distribution, get this bad boy and get it into the hair all through the hair root to tip. Don'T just focus on the bits you think you're gon na have the volume you want it all throughout. If it's not fully distributed, you don't feel like your hair is fully coated. Then you can get a little bit more. A mound, not a mountain step. Four is to activate it, and this is heat activated, so using a hair, dryer medium heat fast speed is going to make that product work. It'S really going to get it, bring it alive and it's going to start to plump the hair and add loads of volume. Now it is at this point that you might think, oh god, what have i done to my hair, it's going to feel a little bit sticky a bit crispy keep going! You really want to get the hair starting to be dry, don't over dry it but start to get the hair dry if it does feel a bit, tacky keep going you're, not yet there or you've messed up my first few steps and putting too much but keep Trying also, while you're drying, it start to push the hair in the direction that you want it to go. For me, i'm going to go with a classic 2014-15 quiff, so i'm going to be pushing it this way, but you can go anywhere. You want. If you do have curly hair or it's slightly coarse, you might actually be kind of drying it more with the flat of your hand just to work with those curls work with the movement and work with the waves. But for me, and anyone else with fine fly away here or that just loves the volume push up. It'S huge right whenever i'm using a hairdryer whenever you're using a hairdryer always finish on a cold blast of air. I'Ve always said this. If you're, still new to this hey, come on press subscribe, cold blast of air is going to close the cuticle, which is the outer surface of the hair. It'S going to make it stronger. It'S going to increase the shine and it's going to allow you to move on to the next step. Okay, right step: five is finish: you might be very happy with how this looks, but this will for me anyway. This will drop during the day and if i put all this volume in behold, then i'm gon na want that volume to stay so finish, for me is all about using a styling product. I would tend to use something quite light, something malleable something it's going to be able to help build that volume so go a paste or a clay right, big big volume. Also as part of the finish and very much old school me. I'D always use a hairspray. Just because you've got the volume from the mousse, but mousses tend not to give you a great hold styling product might do, but a blast of hairspray is just gon na ensure it doesn't move, and that is that volume really that only a mousse could achieve.
