What kind of hair product do you use?

Mousse - Mousse, sometimes called styling foam, is a styling product that is packaged under pressure and expands when released. Mousse is much lighter than other styling products and some brands are created as a combination leave-in conditioner and styling product. Mousse works well for most hair types, but if you have dry hair, then avoid mousse that contains alcohol. Also if you require strong hold or are looking to maintain a short, molded hairstyle, try gel or pomade.

Gel - Gel is a hair styling product that can be quite versatile. It's available as either a spray or direct application. Spray gel is good for a quick, overall covering, but generally provides less hold than direct application hair gel. Direct application hair gel requires you to work it in evenly by hand, but typically provides a stronger hold. Hair gel works well for “scrunching” curls and helping create sleek shapes. Again, if you have dry hair avoid hair gel containing alcohol.

Pomade - Pomade and wax are generally the same product. These hair styling products are great for short hair, dry hair, and are essential for sculpted hairstyles. Pomade is a waxy-like substance that may feel greasy in the container and on the hands, but once worked into hair provides sheen. Though it feels heavy and may take more than one shampoo to wash out, pomade and hair wax do not dry hair out like some styling products do. You get superior hold with pomade and hair wax.

Putty - wax powder base but gooey

Hairspray ..... Etc...

Paste - more into sculpting

Here is the thing... If you thin hair please do not use gel ... Its an oil based product and this product weights your hair down like putty does and dries your hair out to where your breaks off even when you have short hair like men. Hairspray is good but it uses this pull effect and you loose your and dont even know it..
