Not Smooth. Not Flat






If, like me, you suffer from quite flat hair after a good wash (see "before" picture above), then the good news is that there are products out there to help give you some lift and texture with very little effort involved.

This Urban Styling Powder by Fudge* is a great product that has various uses.

For textured ends just sprinkle onto your hands and scrunch through the ends of your hair. You can be quite specific on how much texture you want, so start with a small amount and build up as required.

For a more lived in look as seen in the "after" photos you can sprinkle the powder directly onto your roots and ends. Just massage in and mess up as much as you want! Once you feel it calm down a bit you can mess it up again with your fingers or just leave it as it is. It'll keep you going all night.

I'd also use this powder if I was trying to achieve a beehive look. It will mean your style will stay 'high' without half as much backcombing. Backcomb then sprinkle the powder and massage in. That beehive wont be going anywhere.

Be warned, your hair wont feel so clean any more but it will definitely give you a more casual and edgy look. When I say won't feel clean, this product doesn't make you locks greasy or dirty, it's just a tacky texture.

I highly recommend this product to people with shorter and mid length hair, as it gives good volume and texture. For longer and thicker hair it's worth a try around the roots, but may require some backcombing too to get a real lift.
