Here are some tips.
1. Use the B. The Product's Shampoo Perfected.
Why?
It's Sulfate free so it won't cause premature baldness or dry out your scalp. If you color your hair, it will keep it from fading.
2. Use the BEST hair wax on the market, B. The Product's Waxd.
Why?
It's Soy based so it won't get flaky, sticky or break out your skin when you workout. It has a firm hold so it will last all day and night.
3. Start with a quarter size in your hands and work the product through till it's completely spread out on your palms and fingers.
4. Piece, pull, twist and style as desired. It's Soy so it will work with any hair texture. The Waxd is best applied while hair is slightly damp. Make sure you towel dry well before applying.
