​@gavinhefferon my hair is a lot thinner but the same length and is also quite straight. I'm just using sea salt spray and hair powder for my hair but I can't get a wavy look, I'm using a hair dryer without a diffuser attachment and I'm wondering if that's the reason why, can you help me with this?

[@wyvernlord3269]

This is really helpful. My hair used to be straight, but as I've gotten older it's gotten a slight curl, therefore I can no longer do my normal straight style, because it is weird and wavy with awkward gaps. I've always been trying to give it a messy style but I've been having trouble until now. Thanks!

[@jonyoungmusic]

The dust is a must. I have insanely thick straight hair and switched from my normal head & shoulders shampoo to this moisturizing coconut milk based shampoo & conditioner to get it to relax and not look so poofy. And then got the volumizing dust from my barber and it adds so much texture.

Bro we do the exact same but my hair isnt looking like that Edit: in the comments everyone recommended to shower with shampoo way less. I still shower every evening and wet my hair in the morning to do my hair. Now I use shampoo max 2 times a week and started using conditioner like 3-4 times a week. My hair looks way better now and it never gets oily, even when I dont have time and dont wash it for 2-3 days (I never go longer than that). Still I dont have the exact same hairstyle but close enough that I like it. Hope this helped anyone who also has the same problem!

try using higher quantities of the products bro. Also, play around with your hair as its drying. Use different hand movements to see what works best for your hair

Try cutting down to only washing every 2nd or 3rd day. If you wash your hair every day it strips your hair of natural oils which could be causing that lightness

trying to get back to this, i’m asian and have extremely thick, pin needle straight hair but for like 2 years my hair was super lush and soft and fluffy. it’s finally starting to turn straight again and i just want it to be fluffy again :(

[@Mogg_king]

I’m an Asian barber of 10 years. The key is to remove weight. Your hairstylist is probably leaving too much length and the more your hair overlaps itself, it will create less movement and allow for less texture. Ideally, Asian hair wants to be its longest towards the external areas of the hairline for length perception and shorter moving towards the mid-points where the hair is trying to achieve that texture, so if referring to the top, the front should be the longest, the middle of the head should be shorter and textured out more to allow for more movement

[@Mogg_king]

Also behind using your flat iron to curl and add wave. The key for Asian hair is less hydration. There’s a fine line between hair that is too dry and too hydrated. Think black hair to Asian hair as a spectrum. Black hair needs more oils, Asian hair needs damn near none unless you have longer hair or it’s damaged from chemicals. Also, if changed your shampoo and conditioner that could be another factor. The idea is, you want your hair more towards the dry side of things. It’ll allow for more “fluff”. That way, when you style it and add product, it’ll allow for more play and less oils and weight.

[@bobbyalexander8592]

I've got mad flat hair, straight, has always been very hard to style in the messy way I've wanted to. Have used sea salt spray and powder in the past from some of the more mainstream brands but always find it really hard to get a proper textured look. Ordered from Poseidon and the stuff is genuinely incredible. Was a bit skeptical at first as you'd always assume the popular brands are the way to go, but the chalk is a different gravy. Haven't used the clay yet but I feel like the spray and powder are enough personally, though my hair is a bit shorter than Gavin's in the video so probably doesn't need as much to be held in place. Will buy again, for sure.

It may just be the product that i use, but i like to have a short messy style. However throughout the day it will just flatten. Or when my hair grows slightly, it will just be impossible to create a messy look :/

[@joachim7920]

make sure your barber is adding as much texture as he can when he cuts your hair, you can also ask him for recommendations for better products to use. and as mentioned in the video, sea salt spray is the GOAT for textured hair, and you also want a wax with a better hold to keep the style throughout the whole day.
