Should You Apply Hair Wax To Wet Or Dry Hair For Best Results?
By SASKIA AINSWORTH
If you don't know what you're doing, styling your hair can feel like a daunting task. If you're new to using hair wax, you may wonder whether to apply it to wet or dry hair.
Applying hair wax on wet hair is not recommended because it makes it more challenging to achieve your desired look, as you will have less styling power.
Hair wax works best on dry hair because it adheres more effectively and provides more styling precision. For the best results, warm the wax between your hands before application.
When using hair wax, it’s important to remember that less is more. You only need a small amount of product, especially if you have thin hair.
