Step 3. Put a knob of wax on the palm of your hand

Don't work with too much wax in this step or you'll have trouble distributing it properly.

Step 4. Work the wax between your hands

Massage your palms as if you were washing your hands. The wax will heat up and be more malleable.

Step 5. Work with both hands through your hair

Use your palms and fingers to distribute it through your hair to the ends. If you need more wax, take another nut and spread it out.

Method 2 of 4: Create a Tousled Look

Step 1. Start with wet hair

Let the air dry them or use a hair dryer.

Step 2. Work some wax between your palms

Again, even if your hair is long, don't use more than one knob of wax at a time. You don't want lumps of wax in your hair.

Step 3. Comb the hair with your fingers

Start at the roots and lift your hair as you swipe with your fingers to add some volume. The wax will keep the volume in the fold.

Step 4. Run your fingers between individual strands

Take them one at a time and separate it from the rest of the hair, then smear the wax with your fingers. Twist it gently before leaving it behind your head. By separating a few strands and doing this process, the disheveled look will be more complete.

Step 3. Continue to wax your hair and shape some tips

Do one strand at a time, use your fingers to wax as you pull them up. Proceed until all strands are pointed.

Advice

  • One of the biggest mistakes when using wax-based products, whether it's a spray or a jar, is that people use too much of it all at once. Remember that the product can be added gradually, but you cannot remove it if you have put in too much from the start.
  • If you don't like the feel of the product, such as a spray, try different ones until you find the one that suits your style and hair type. The general rule is that the modeling product should be applied to wet hair, while the finishing products should be applied to dry hair; however you can experiment to find what is best for you.
