Recently I began having my hair cut quite a bit shorter than I usually wear my hair for the sake of spiking my hair and having a hairstyle that is a little trendier than the just-combed-back look. While the best spiking agent I have found is the FX Special Effects Pliable Hair Wax by Vogue International, I find that there are times when I still prefer a more conservative hairstyle than the hipper spikes that I don most often. For those times, I have been using Consort For Men Hair Styling Hair Gel.
The Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel is string enough to hold my difficult hair in place, even during a long day, and it is not as stiff as the wax and is hence better for combing into one’s hair rather than to make the hair stand up. When I use the Consort For Men Styling Gel, I am trying to achieve just enough buoyancy to make my hair stand up a bit and be interesting without making it stand up so much that I look like a punk rocker with a Mohawk. I find that the Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel is a good middle ground between too much lift and not enough lift, as I certainly don’t want my hair to stick flat to my head either.
The Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel is available in various degrees of firmness and texture, ranging from “regular” to “extreme” hold levels. The hold levels also are rated numerically, ranging from 2 to 10 from least firmness to greatest firmness. The variety that I am currently using for my more conservative hairstyling days is the “Clean Hold” variety at a firmness/hold level of 8. Since I am often on my feet for twelve or more hours per day, I usually need a quite firm hair styling product to keep my hair in place for so many hours at a time. The hair wax is exceptional for this when I spike my hair, but the Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel is also adequate for this task on the days when I need my hair to look more conservative and professional.
The Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel comes in a clear plastic tube that holds 8.3 ounces. Eight ounces of hair gel should be enough to last most people for several weeks as long as they are somewhat conservative in the amount of hair gel that is required to style their hair. I have had the same tube of Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel for well over a month now with no immediate danger of running out anytime soon. This will vary, though, depending on how much gel you need to adequately style your own hair to your liking.
A final consideration that is worth mentioning about the Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel is the fact that the Consort Hair Gel is “no flake”. This is important because hair gel that flakes when it dries is easily mistaken for dandruff and one certainly doesn’t want to go about looking like he has a head full of dandruff flakes. The Consort For Men Hair Styling Gel will stay where you put it and will not flake away until you rinse it from your hair.
In conclusion, if you are looking for a good hair gel that is neither too firm nor too flimsy, then the Consort For Men Hair Gel is probably right for you. It is available in varying degrees of holding power and the Consort Hair Gel will keep your hair where you put it for hours and hours at a time.
