Hair styling gel

Both women and men want to look well-groomed and attractive. Hair at the same time have one of the key values, because the correct hairstyle can hide flaws and emphasize the advantages. Hair styling gel today allows you to create perfect lines of any hairstyle.

Gel for hair styling has a jelly-like consistency and securely fixes the strands in a stationary state. It is worth saying that the definition is very general, because modern tools are available in the form:

• aerosol;
• liquids;
• gelatinous substance

The type of impact is also not limited to the possibility of strong fixation today. Popular styling gels allow you to:

1. achieve smoothness for curly hair;
2. create the effect of wet hair;
3. add any contrasting color to the hair;
4. moisturize hair;
5. add volume;
6. straighten strands;
7. curl curls.

Agree, variety is amazing. What can I say, and women in our world are extremely happy, because they can create different hairstyles and hair styles without harm to hair, and sometimes with benefit for them. It is hard to believe, but even in the 17th and 18th centuries, poor fashionable women had to use litter and resin for laying. Today everything has become much easier, which means it will not be difficult to understand the types and characteristics of this or that species.

Wet hair effect It is a simple and stylish styling with precise separation of elastic strands. Most often this type is used for natural or curly curls. The gel for this type has a specific consistency, not suitable for other types of hairstyles. Strong fixation, filling of curls with radiance and gel-like structure is what distinguishes the means of this action.

Has a completely different effect coloring agent for styling. It is also called tint. The shades here, it is worth saying, are quite playful and can be turquoise, red or any other juicy tones. Such a product is rarely applied to all the curls, because some bright strands look much more aesthetic than the head, completely painted in pink. A special feature is the fact that the very first washing of hair completely washes away the tone, which means that you can be transformed for one evening without thinking about the consequences.

For volume and moisturizing hair light gels of medium and easy fixation are used. Especially good for this case aerosols. They will not weigh thin hair and add the desired pomp to them. Such means will also be suitable for straightening strands with the help of ploek.

For curling products with strong fixation are suitable, especially if the curls are naturally straight and hardly live for even several hours in a state of flirtatious curls. It is recommended to use them together with varnishes for the best and longer effect. The female image with a short haircut will also transform the gel with an enhanced formula, because it will help to create clear strands and even a playful “hedgehog” on the hair.

The composition of styling gels can not be called natural, because it is based on polymers and other chemicals. However, it is worth noting that manufacturers are trying to soften the means with the help of useful additives and trace elements.

So, the basis of any gel is water. Are in close contact with her polymers and copolymers, enveloping each hair and allowing you to create a variety of hairstyles. Opinions about them are different. For example, these substances with a strong concentration, namely in the gels with strong fixation, do not allow the hair to breathe, plugging it and drying it.Of course, with a single application, such an effect will not be noticeable, but daily application should be discarded, preferring fixation to an easy one.

Another not very private component is considered triethanolamine. It is an ingredient in foaming cosmetics. People with sensitive skin should be careful about its presence in the composition, because with individual intolerance skin dermatitis and other troubles are possible. However, leading manufacturers are trying to replace this kind of hazardous substances.

The presence of such a base in its pure form would be detrimental to the hair with daily use. Experts have solved this problem by adding useful ingredients to the styling gels, one of which is aloe vera.

It is aloe vera that has the strongest moisturizing effect and significantly reduces dryness after the application of polymers. Also present in this plant are large concentrations. vitamins E and B, promoting strengthening and improvement of a hair on all length. Summarizing the above, we can confidently talk about the correct choice in favor of the gel with the participation in the composition of this component.

Another important product is keratin or fibrillar protein. His presence on the hair is difficult to overestimate, because the structure of the hair itself consists of 80% alpha keratin. External adverse effects on curls significantly reduces its activity, making hair lifeless. Keratin styling gel allows you to saturate the curls with lost substances, to return them shine and smoothness. It is worth remembering that in order to obtain a visible result, keratin must be in the beginning or in the middle of the list of products.

Sea buckthorn ingredient in the composition - another successful component in the styling gel. Sea buckthorn oil has a huge number of groups of vitamins, amino acids and trace elements. In addition, its use in cosmetics for hair stimulates the production of natural keratin, which allows you to return the natural radiance and power to the curls. Food at the same time is much deeper, providing a long-term effect.

Wheat and Silk Protein also has a softening and improving condition of the hair. Curls when applying such components increase their elasticity and become stronger, which allows not to spoil their most fancy hair.

Seeds for this are soaked in boiling water and wait until the infusion has cooled. During this period, the liquid becomes thick and dark, resembling a gel-like consistency. Surprisingly, but at this point the production of miracle tools ends, and the result exceeds all expectations.

Many companies are engaged in the development of styling gels, because this product will be in demand until the fashion for beauty disappears. And it probably will never disappear.

In pursuit of the best tool, you can try a lot of gels, but it’s better to start your quest with democratic brands. For example, domestic brand "Clean line" represents at once several types of this product:

• extra strong fixation with nettle;
• medium fixation with clover;
• wet hair effect with aloe vera.

Difference from other brands is orientation to fitozbory, useful to hair. So, clover perfectly strengthens the curls and normalizes their fat balance, and aloe vera actively moisturizes and fights dryness from root to tip of the hair. Nettle is considered a folk doctor and can accelerate the growth of healthy curls. Additionally, each of the gels is enriched with chamomile medicine extract, which also has a positive effect on the hair.

Another budget and popular brand from Russia is the company. "Charm". Four trademarks have already been formed under a large company:

• "Charm";
• "Charm Classic";
• "The beauty of Bio";
• "Charm Professional".

The most relevant and improved can be considered "The beauty of Bio" and "The beauty of Professional." They then presented the gel tools for modeling hairstyles. In the arsenal of the professional brand is a gel of superstrong fixation "Memory Effect" to create the effect of wet hair. Bamboo extract included in it allows you to get elastic and moisturized curls.

“Charm of Bio” also did not stand aside, creating “Vital Force” gels with green tea extract and “Double volume” with sea minerals. Well-studied natural components in the composition carefully care for the hair, being, unfortunately, in the last places in the composition. Here, as in any means, it was not without polymers.

Natural cosmetic Natura Sibericabased on the miraculous properties of plants in Siberia offers several varieties of sea buckthorn gel for impeccable styling. In the arsenal of the company there are:

• product "natural fixation";
• for hair straightening;
• to form curls.

This separation into the desired result allows you to get a haircut as close as possible to the ideal. The composition of each of the funds in the first place are the sea buckthorn oil, amaranth, various extracts. The polymers are indicated in the middle of the composition, which means that they are used in smaller quantities, which is an absolute plus for curls.

Another domestic brand - Concept has a significant difference from competitors, because its manufacturing technology is entrusted to German specialists. The product with an affordable price meets European quality standards. Elastic-gel for creative modeling created for the formation of a stylish hairstyle without weighting and gluing curls.

L'Oreal - A company with a century of history, which gained considerable popularity among Russians. Means for hair brands are used by stylists in elite beauty salons, strongly recommending them to their customers, because the formulas are perfected. Thus, the company created the cream-gel "Intra-CylanetTM 2-in-1" for styling and giving volume to thin hair. Having a second degree of fixation, the cream-gel has an antistatic effect and protects against harmful UV exposure. In the same series, L'Oreal has released a cream-gel for smoothing unruly hair with a first degree of fixation.

An interesting tool in the L'Oreal styling line was Jelle for creating the effect of disheveled hair. For extra styling, a gel-like cream has been created to create well-defined and resilient curls. It is worth saying that the degree of fixation of the gels of the brand does not exceed 2, which means that they can be used with enviable regularity and safety.

Funds from the German company Schwarzkopf, represented by the trademark Syoss, created for women and men who want to get a salon styling effect at home. The series is represented by products “Easy styling liquid gel Invisible hold”, gel “Max Hold”. The professional line guarantees great styling within 48 hours.

It is worth saying that Schwarzkopf develops a huge amount of care products for curls. So, the Got2b Steel Grip styling gel is directly related to the global brand. Feature of the tool is superstrong fixation and water resistance. Styling gel is on the border with wax for curls and has the same dense structure.

Other effective products from the Schwarzkopf Professional brand are represented by the Osis brand. Cocktail gels, gel-oil, waterproof products and means of superstrong fixing earned the love of users due to the inclusion of natural ingredients.

Estel - the leading Russian manufacturer of salon cosmetics has released interesting series of gels. In the assortment, you can observe elastic-gel for modeling, stretch-gel for design and give individual strands unusual shapes.The cost of the domestic brand is quite democratic, which makes it common not only among lovers of salon procedures, but also ladies, suggesting beauty at home.

A huge number of top-class cosmetics is a world-renowned company with many years of experience. Londa. Means have differences by type of exposure. So, gel wax allows you to create easy styling normal fixation, gel shine - the effect of wet hair. Also in the range of a large number of extra-strong exposure gels, allowing not only to fix the hair, but also to highlight individual strands.

Laying hair with a gel is not difficult, but depending on the desired effect, the algorithm of actions is somewhat different from each other. The first and common step is washing your hair and drying it with a towel.

Further, for hair straightening, it is necessary to gently comb the hair and dry them at the lowest temperature conditions of the hair dryer. Next, a means is applied to the hair and distributed throughout the hair. Combing with frequent teeth is followed by combing, after which the procedure can be considered completed.

Even easier styling - wet hair effect. Gel for her to apply to wet clean hair. After which the hair is compressed towards the roots. The final step is drying with a hair dryer, with your head tilted down.

Excessive application will inevitably make the curls visually greasy and unkempt. For a short length of hair, the amount of money the size of a coin will be enough. Medium and long curls are individual, and the amount of product depends on their thickness.

Drying curls is also individual. For alcohol-containing gels, drying with a hair dryer is not required, because the main component dries quickly in a few minutes, making the hair hard. Gentle products without alcohol dry longer, and therefore for a faster procedure, you can use a hairdryer, especially if we are talking about styling “wet hair effect”.

Good and high-quality styling gel has become for many girls and young people a real salvation from disobedient and volumetric curls. As users are assured, the effect of the procedure will greatly benefit styling with lacquer, because the strands seem to rise from the inside.

In addition, many people talk about getting the desired result not the first time, because it is important to adapt to such care. For example, an excessive amount of gel on the hair can ruin any image and discourage further desire to use it in the future. A sense of proportion, a hair dryer, a good comb and a share of patience are the components of a successful hairstyle with the help of this product.

Means of unknown brands with low cost in most cases bring only negative for curls and their owners. Young people note the dryness and porosity of the hair with their frequent use, because they often contain polymers and alcohol in large quantities without natural components in the composition. In addition, already at the first application you feel the greasiness and stickiness of even freshly washed hair.

Natural ingredients are loved by users. Many note the special moisture of the hair, gentle care. The presence of extracts and oils in the composition becomes for experienced styling experts a guarantee of a successful and even useful purchase.

The cost of the products does not play the key role here. Photos with images of amazing beauty styling are laid out as the owners of the products "Pure Line" and "Charm", and salon brands.The latter, however, still have advantages, because the substances in them are used more advanced and sparing.
