【More control for styles and fly-aways than cremes and sprays】
What I love about Styling Wax is its numerous applications.
You can work it into your wet hair, for extra-thick hold with and protection against your blow dryer.
You can also use it how I most frequently use it in the winter - to either smooth out and control the static and flyaway strands in a straight style, or hold the little wispy pieces in place when you pull your hair back (like in a ponytail).
However, even though it has so many different uses, Styling Wax does require some experimentation to learn how to use it right. It's a fairly powerful styling product so I can't say I've ever had an instance where I used too little, but I've definitely had cases where I've used too much and if you're trying to get out of the house in an instance like that, you're going to curse the day you discovered this shiny little tin because your only recourse is to jump in the shower and rewash your hair.
For those of us who have dry hair issues and we chose not to shampoo our hair daily, Styling Wax can put a crimp in that plan because the morning after an application will make your hair look very dirty.
If you can get away with that look every other day then I say go for it and leave it in - your hair will benefit from the protective properties that the coating of wax provides, as well as the infrequent washing.
If you're like me and you take extra anal care of your hair, then you probably love the way it feels when it's clean, conditioned, soft 'n smooth.
When I have Styling Wax in my hair I have to remember not to touch it, because it feels so greasy and chunky.
My hair feels heavy against my head when I use it, and if my hair touches my face at all my face instantly feels like it's going to break out.
One last tip - if you do use this product daily, you might want to invest in a once-a-week cleansing shampoo..
This will prevent any unnecessary buildup of this and any other styling products you use.
