Hair ointment is considered a great option for the man who wants to finish and style his hair. It is a product that is between the wax and the hair gel, because it gives high fixation (characteristic of the gel) leaving the hair more natural (similar to wax).
Many products work with a matte or dry version, which leaves the hair more natural. But there are also options with shine, similar to wet hair.
The application of the ointment is simple, since they have a softer consistency than waxes, making it easier to spread on the hair.
The fixing time is a striking feature of the product, as the duration is long.
In addition to styling, combing and texturing the hair, the ointments also help in the health of the strands. This is because they collaborate with hydration, avoid frizz and loss of nutrients.
And no matter what your style is, classic, bold or traditional, know that there is a hair ointment that suits you.
