...boots and came across the FCUK wax STICK. Neither of us had ever seen a wax stick before, so interested we purchased it. They cost around £4.00 each, quite reasonable. When we got home we weren't entirely sure how we were supposed to apply it, luckily however the FCUK team had provided us with instructions. You should apply the wax in circular motions to the hair without too much force; this ensures equal coverage and forces the hair to establish ...
...the same hold as the FCUK which is ideal for both short and long hair. Overall a great piece of kit ideal for any type of hair, its even works on long hair but is better used with your fingers otherwise it may clump. Like most hair products if you leave it in for a day or 2 your hair does become greasy so I advise washing every 1-2 days or eve before you go to bed to keep your pillow clean. P.S Boots often have it on sale for 3 for 2 so you can ... Read review

Advantages: Works really well and helps with shine.
Disadvantages: You need to wash your hands after using it.

I don't like my hair to look undefined and solid so my stylist advised I use a tiny bit of wax to create texture and definition. To me wax was just a guy thing for that slick look, I didn't think I could use it and make my hair look any good! I was advised to rub a pea-sized blob (no more than that) between my fingers then comb them through my hair. This is now what I do every time I do my hair. This makes my hair look effortlessly done but spot ...
...and have no intentions of changing to another type as I have found it so good. This wax is purple with iridescent powder (I assume) mixed through it, this doesn't look glittery on your hair, you can't even see it but helps with shine. It smells nice too, just fresh. As it is wax I do find I need to wash my hands well after I have used it, not a big deal as with any hair product you do really don't you. It doesn't make my hair feel in any way greasy ...

Advantages: Gives you a natural look, easy to wash out, long lasting
Disadvantages: None

...was an avid fan of Garnier Fructis Hard Gel but then I grew my hair a little bit longer and found that the hard gel no longer did what I wanted it too and moved to the surf hair which I find to be brilliant. The gel itself comes in a green tub that I believe contains 150ml and normally costs close to £3. It has a yellow lid which I believe is what Garnier use to distinguish between the different gels. The actual gel is more like a putty than a regular ...
...is easier to run through your hair compared to other putty's. As with any other gel, I'd recommend putting it on when your hair is damp and not dry as it will makes it easier to put and stops your hair tangling. The look that the gel gives off seems to be more natural than anything else. It does not give me a wet look or make my hair rock hard, or let me change my style a few hours later but it does hold my hair in place without me looking like I'm ... Read review

Advantages: smells fabby
Disadvantages: a little expensive

...the wind hits it. but fudge hair shaper holds it perfectly in place whether i choose to have it curly or straight. plus, it smells AMAZING. the product also stays in until its washed out, which it does easily, but once applied, you can reshape and restyle your hair even after brushing. and you get no white felecks or crumbling of the product, in fact the only giveaway of its presence is the smell! the only percieved disadvantages could be its gloopy ...

Advantages: Static free hair, reduced appearance of slpit ends, pink bottle :)
Disadvantages: Can't think of anything

I bought this after I noticed I had a few split ends, since I can't afford hair cuts every few weeks, I wanted something that would reduce the appearance of them. When I saw this product I was sceptical as I knew you can't get rid of split ends as it's just dry hair but WOW! I thought it was amazing, I have fine hair which often feels dry. I noticed immediately how soft and silky my hair felt and when I looked in the mirror my split ends did look ...
...noticeable split ends. You apply this to wet hair after washing and towel drying, you can also use it after drying and straightening your hair to remove static. You simply rub it into your palms and stroke it over the static hair. Amazing product for me and I would recommend it. ... Read review
