Choosing the Right Styling Product for Your Hair Type When it comes to choosing hair styling products, men generally tend to find it all a bit confusing. It’s understandable, there’s a gazillion products on the market and it can be a real minefield with way too many options on offer. There really are no one-product-fits-all scenarios in this case unfortunately, but at Jacks of London we try to help find the best match for you. It all depends on three things: your hair texture; your hairstyle; and the look that you want to achieve. We always recommend quality products over cost. The theory goes: why pay to get a quality haircut from a quality barbers (like Jacks of London), to then stick on some cheap gunk that will fail to optimise your barbers good work, and in turn your charm potential? Luckily for you, the men’s grooming market has expanded beyond the 90s wet look gel, which though cheap, at 49p a pot, looked, well, pretty goddamn awful. So, we’ve tried our best to break through all the technical terms and extra flowery BS to simply bring you the hard facts. A no-nonsense three-step-guide to which products work best for which hair types. Photo Credit: The Telegraph 16
