I'Ve said it before and I will say it again: I am NOT a fan of hair gel honestly, I I it's just not something I want to use, but you say why are you doing this video I'm doing this video? Because I want to show you that, actually, you can do quite a lot with it, although it's not my go-to product, I know a lot of you will have a hair gel you've been experimenting with hair gels, so I'm going to show you how to do a Fool hair style routine, with just gel now, if you're new fish running, Who I am then hi, I'm Robin this world here on YouTube is man for himself. If you like, hair style, how to's hair product reviews, grooming skincare fragrance here cut tutorials, then this channel is for you press subscribe right now: okay, we are really lucky to have lots of different varieties of gel from the cheapest sort of 20 P couple of cents Dollars, wherever you are up into stuff, which is far more expensive, a far more premium, a gel really is sort of categorize and characterized as being a water-based product, a water-based product that will go in and dry hard. Really it's a product that can fix your hair. As well as styling, it now one of the reasons that I've not always liked hair gels is because, when they dry hard, they can go. Flaky. You'Ve got absolutely no movement to the hair, but some of the products here that I've got won't, give it that flakiness. So, let's tile wave, I'm gon na go sort of, let go mid-range, I'm gon na go for American Crew and this one I think I believe it will be linked down below it's running about this six dollar mark it's about ten pounds. It'S not hugely expensive, but it's a good product, so we're gon na get onto the hand you can see there already. It is very jelly like, as with all the sort of hairstyles and hair products that I use, we're gon na lay it so you can either put this into sort of damp here or towel. Dried hair like I've, got I'm going to smooth it in back. In the day when I was like 14 and I was experimenting with hair products - that's kind of Saturday I had, I would M - put gel in my hair and kind of make it into these pineapple sort of spikes, and it would dry hard. I thought it looked amazing. It didn't, but now I know, there's other ways of doing this like in the way that I'm gon na use this as a pre stylist, so we're gon na saturate the hair and then I'm gon na grab a hairdryer and I'm gon na go for a low Heat here we go for a low heat, not a medium heat, not high heat, because I don't want to dry it out. Gel will dry high, so we're gon na move quite quickly and when we're doing this, I'm gon na use my hand first of all and I'm gon na work it across. I'M not gon na go for a huge volume, but I'm gon na go for something. A little bit more neat a little bit more regimented and probably something a bit more formal, so temperature right down and fast speed, I'm going to start to work through. Okay, we are starting to drive. That'S why I need to move quickly. One thing you'll notice about gel is for you, a guy with thinning here already fine here, stay away from gel gel will make you kind of see into the scalp, so I'm gon na try and it'll cover this up slightly with a styling, but it's at this Point that I'm gon na grab a comb or you can use a brush whatever you've got your hand and I'm gon na start to work it across so really from the right parting on the recess, which is right here straight across okay. So the hairdryers allowed me to build in the volume, but it's also helped to start to direct the hair. So my hair is dry. You can see there is no flakiness, there's no crispiness and that's because this is a good quality gel. If you're using any was super cheap stuff, where the huge tubs you will start to fill that flaking, so keep that in mind. Okay, next we're gon na grab more of the products price price a little bit more into the hands about a pea-sized, very large P letter P into the hands and I'm gon na smooth through and work down. On that part, a very messy part and someone that struggles with their parting, but you can't have it all, and actually this is when I say I really really like a messy parting. I do think it keeps it casual and then, with this other hand, just sweeping through now that we've got the real sort of foundation of the hairstyle in I'm gon na. Take a bit more all about it, the layering being careful on that part and again gel does dry hide, so you need to know what you're doing clear and move at a good speed. Okay, right now that that is in place. This is when you could leave it and you might want to use a little bit more gel onto the hands and just smooth away any sort of flyaways or you could start to have a little bit more fun. There'S my type of fun again and it's when you might want to add a little bit more texture. So you could literally just take index finger thumb and go a bit PC with so pull it away from the front like this, and you actually could go for something a little bit more of that sort of 20s vibe where you could pull it forward, which I Quite like, and you might even do something like this sort of gentle curl or you could go again - huge could be here for hours, but I am just really finishing this up. I like this curl I like this wave. We'Ve got the great volume from the hairdryer and then just using the gel just to add a little bit more drama, and I say drama: stick over here, guys bit more drama into the hair drama. That'S it gon na have to wash out the drama later. Okay, move, I don't know, what's in this job, so very 90s we've gone a bit Leo in M Romeo and Juliet, which is not necessary, a bad thing. They need wash your hands, it's a bit sticky, but that is it. So, although I'm not a gel fan, I've shown you you can do a fool hairstyle out of it just one product that here is not going to move, it doesn't need hairspray. We used it for pre, styling, styling and fixing right there thanks very much for watching. As I say, everything is linked down below in description also come across to man from safecom.

Robin James: Some of my absolute favourite products in my Holy Grail! https://manforhimself.com/product-tag/holy-grail/

Adam?: There are basically two types of gels. There’s the typical gel that almost every guy has tried, which is what you showed in the video.This gives that really strong hold and crisp feel. It dries hard and tends to flake like you said. There’s another kind of hair gel that’s used mainly as prestyler for volume and a light hold. These types of gel products shouldn’t dry hard and should have quite a bit of movement. It has a bit of shine, but it’s not like glossy finish of a standard gel. These are catered more towards longer hairstyles. The actual product itself does have that gel-type consistency as the kind used in the video. Examples of these gels are Redken’s “Velvet Gelatine 07” and Paul Mitchell’s “Tee Tree Styling Gel” (not to be confused with their “Tee Tree Firm Hold Gel”). I was just mentioning this because there aren’t many videos on these types of gels and I think that it would be cool to see some reviews on them.

Sushant Suvarna: This video reminds me of my very first video of yours where you show 3 hairstyles just using gel. It's been years and you still never disappoint with your content.

Colby Lopez: Absolutely love it . Amazing tutorial as always.

Perren Chan: Great video as always. Weird to see gel used in a more versatile way (both prestyle and style), could you do this with other products like clays, pastes, sprays, etc?

Habrak Habrak: What I do everyday to avoid any trouble with the parting is holding the hair above the parting with my hand while drying and just aiming the air so as to direct the hair down the side of my head, then I do it the other way around holding the parting and blowing the top in the other direction. I honestly have never given much thought into it but it seems to work with me and my medium-length hair

Steen Pedersen: Thanks. I love your tips and tricks. Until recently I only knew foam. Then I discovered gel and in the last few weeks I have bought 15 different wax, clay, pastes etc. I started experimeting as 44 years old, but it's fun and thanks to you and YouTube for sharing all the knowdlege :-)

Danish Tourangbam: Great content as always!

Stelios C.: A good quality hair gel is the best way to go. Its clean and when someone touches your hair it dosnt feel like oily muddy waxy mess. Anything else feels dirty on the hands. Tried them all.

Евгений Гавриченков: Hey, Robin! Thank you for good video! My styling exp started with gel and it was very bad. After video know how to use it in right way and take good result. What you think about idea for video to hairstyling without blow dryer? Sometimes it's impossible to use hair dryer, but still want to have gentle style.

Bloodysince: Does Hairgel damage your hair more than say putty, clay or wax?

Davide Bianchi: Hey Robin, i love your videos, i would like to have a haircut like yours, im growing my hair but is very very fine and even tho i use nioxin thickening spray and clay it flops over in like 40 mins with little volume... Can you do a hairstyle tutorial so i can show it to my stylist?

Andy in Sound: Been years no use hair gel, but I apparently used in kind of wrong way back then. Now I’m ready to try it again, because clay/wax/pomade always need hairspray with them to finish the job, two products at a time. On the other hand, hair gel can do the work alone, just one product, especially when you are traveling, you really don’t wanna bring two hair products.

John T: Nice retro look ... retro meaning the 90s ... time sure flies by

ReportThemAll: Oh no! Just when I thought we saw the last of gel in the previous decade Robin posts a video encouraging people to start using gel again!

Amir Penkar: How often should you wash your hair if you use product almost daily?

Muhannad Mnea: Great video, Robin.

Tallglassofh2o: Hello Robin. I see that you have the Baxter of California’s new hair gel. I want to know what are your thoughts on it despite not liking hair gel and does it smell like ginger? Thank u

Priyanshu Singh: I use aloe vera gell ❤️ its good and healthy

Amit Mo: Rob is becoming more and more handsome when he ages...

Andy H: Video about hair thickening powder/spray?

Chew Her: This is so cool.

It's Premology: You should do a review on different types of hair powders.....

B787YV: is there a product wet look but with bentonite?

Priyanshu Singh: Hair gel is just like the machete we barely use from our artillery

Kani: A girl with a short hair watching thanks

SHIVAM AGGARWAL: Will you be doing product reviews of salon guy products ( like pregame or crafted)?

KingLut: How do i get rid of curly hair? I could not make my hair go up because of it and does pomade gatsby upper hold have a mild citrus scent

Lenny502: Subscribed! :)

Elijah Yeo: anyone else care to notice how gud he looks in every hairstyle?

Hero Gamer: Robin your sweatshirt looks quite nice....✌️✌️

Tonaldo: Who still watching this early 2000s video classic on 2020?
