Go Easy On The Hair Product
“The biggest mistake guys make on their hair is applying too much product,” says John Allan, owner of John Allan’s men’s hair salons in New York and Chicago. “Always start with less and add as you go, especially with pomades.” You’re not auditioning for Jersey Shore, and you’re not the guitarist in a metal band in 1987, so you want to go easy: Spread a small amount evenly between the fingers and palm of your hand. Apply gel, cream, or pomade to the hair close to your scalp — some experts say to start at the back of your head and work your way forward. You can style your hair and help it stay healthy with John Allan’s new Tough styling paste, which is made with red tea, pomegranate, and acai fruit.
