Hair Cream

What is hair cream?

A hair cream, also known as styling cream or hair styling cream, is one of the wettest categories of hair styling products for men. It is often water-based with copolymers, but it can also be a combination of water with certain oils and waxes. So as the first ingredient on the list, you will often see water or aqua, followed by PVP, copolymers or, for example, petrolatum, beeswax or castor seed oil.

Hair cream for men

The ingredients PVP and copolymers in a styling cream give your hair more body, while waxes provide hold and oils offer hydration. A hair cream can be used on any hair type and works well for fine, normal and thick hair, depending on what you want to achieve. Especially for fine hair, a cream is ideal because it does not weigh your hair down.

Properties of hair cream for guys

You usually do not apply a hair cream when you want a lot of hold, as this category is too wet for that. In that case, it is better to go for a hair wax or hair paste. Hair cream is good for definition, some texture and hydration. That is why they also work well to nourish curly hair with oils and reduce frizz.

Hair cream often gives a medium hold with a natural, medium shine.

It does not keep your hair up, but accentuates and defines it. In fine hair, a hair cream can sometimes provide enough hold to actually style your hair, but in normal and thick hair, it will often not be sufficient.

Since hair creams are often water-based, these products are easy to wash out with just warm water. A styling cream also will not become rock hard in your hair, so sometimes you can still do a bit of restyling or run your hands through your hair later in the day.

Which men’s hairstyles work best with hair cream?

Due to the lower hold and shiny character of hair cream, it works very well for out-of-bed looks and other messy men’s hairstyles. It looks as if you’ve got nothing in your hair. In curly hair, it provides extra definition and nourishes your hair with oils so it becomes less dry or frizzy.

A hair cream can also be used as a supplement to another styling product because creams are good for taming unruly hairs and reducing frizz. In that case, you use it alongside another styling product with a bit more hold.
