Have you ever applied a handful of a hair styling product only to look in the mirror and think, "Nope, that's not what I was going for at all?" Gels and creams are fantastic products for shape and hold, but they can also be a little... too much.
On the other hand, the wash-and-go look can leave hair looking unkempt and unmanaged. So, where's the happy medium? Is there a styling product that makes hair look styled without looking overdone?
If you've been on the hunt for a holy grail product to give your hair extra volume and touchable style without looking too slicked down, look no further than Birckell's new styling hair powder. This easy-to-use dry styling product is ideal for adding volume and manageability while still giving a natural and relaxed look.
What Is Hair Powder?
Hair powder is a styling product that increases texture and volume without leaving a greasy residue or a crunchy cast. It's a loose powder you simply apply to your hair with your hands before styling as desired.
Brickell's hair powder for men lifts the hair away from the scalp for an instant boost in volume. The powder's ingredients create friction between the strands, separating them in a way that makes hair look fuller while retaining a natural style that doesn't look overdone. It's perfect for adding targeted volume to spots that might be a little thinner, hiding a wide part, or filling in areas around the hairline.
What Are the Ingredients in Hair Powder?
Like all of our products, Brickell's hair styling powder contains the highest-grade, all-natural, and Certified Organic ingredients. The main ingredient is silica silylate, which boosts volume. We've added rice bran oil and rosehip to strengthen roots, so you have healthier hair after using our hair powder.
Our formula also contains Olea europaea (olive) fruit oil to moisturize and nourish hair without making it look greasy or slick. You can confidently use Brickell hair styling powder, knowing it contains no petrochemicals, sulfates, parabens, phthalates, synthetic fragrance or color, silicones, or PEGs.
We never test products on animals, and the ingredients are 100% vegan. Like everything Brickell makes, our texturizing hair powder is formulated to give you peak style while being good for your hair.
How Can I Use Hair Powder?
Styling powder for hair is simple to use. To start, make sure you have completely dry hair. Unlike other products, hair powder isn't meant to be issued on wet hair, so make sure there isn't any lingering moisture before applying it.
Sprinkle a little bit of product into your hands and rake in through your hair. You can also sprinkle it directly onto the hair if you prefer. Use your fingertips to distribute the powder throughout your hair. Once you've applied it, let it sit for a few minutes to fully absorb into the hair. After the powder has settled, you can add more to spots that need a touch more volume.
Once the powder has been absorbed, go ahead and style it any way you like. You can let the powder do all the styling work and simply tousle your hair into the look you want. You can also add other products like pomade or gel to get a lasting hold for all-day style.
You can reactivate your hair powder if you need a quick refresh during the day. Just massage your roots a little to give your hair a quick lift without adding more product.
Style Options for Hair Powder
Brickell's hair powder is a versatile addition to your styling collection. You can use it for basic volumizing or as a tool to achieve specific style goals.
Volume
Just like the name suggests, hair volume powder is a go-to product for adding volume to hair. As an all-over product, it gives the appearance of thick, full hair. Apply to targeted areas to increase volume in the spots that need it most. The silica silylate-based formula gently but effectively lifts and separates hair for volume without stiffness or greasy finish.
Structure and Shape
Volumizing powder adds definition to your hairstyle. Use powder as a first styling step. Give yourself the lift you want in specific areas for a structured look. Add products like gel to set your style for all-day control.
Hold
Volumizing hair powder can be a foundation for all-day style. The powder can build volume from the roots so your style stays in place, without stiffness or crunch. Hair powders give you a lasting look while keeping your hair touchably soft.
Manageability
Hair powder makes styling easier by giving hair volume and texture. Instead of slipping out of any style you try, your hair will be more adaptable and ready to hold a look.
Matte Finish
Unlike gels or pomade, powder is a dry product that doesn't leave a sheen. With it, you can get a finished look without having an obvious layer or product in your hair. It looks effortless instead of over-styled.
Can I Use Hair Powder With Other Styling Products?
Hair powder can be a stand-alone product for an undone look or you can use it as the first step in a hair styling routine. Add other products from Brickell's styling line for a perfect hair day every time.
- Styling Hair Gel: Use gel to give your hair loa long-lasting hold and a sculpted look. Use it after applying hair powder to keep your volumized look in place all day long. This lightly scented gel provides a medium hold with a semi-glossy shine.
- Argan Hair Oil: Add a few dabs of argan hair oil before using volumizing hair powder. The light oil seals in moisture to prevent frizz and flyaways. Once it's fully absorbed into your hair, use a sprinkle of hair powder to add style and nourishment to your hair.
- Classic Firm Hold Gel Pomade: For hair that needs a stronger hold, gel pomade is the solution. This beeswax-based formula is gentle enough to use every day while still giving you a firm hold to tame unruly hair. After applying volumizing hair powder to create a thick, full style, add a layer of gel pomade to lock your locks in place.
- Relieving Hair Routine: Brickell's styling line is silicone-free and water soluble so they all rinse out with just water. But a good shampoo and conditioner is a key part of any hair care routine. Our shampoo and conditioner combo offers gentle cleansing and dandruff control. The conditioner leaves hair soft and shiny and ready for applying your favorite styling products.
FAQ
Is texture powder bad for your hair?
Brickell's hair powder is not bad for your hair! The key to choosing a texture powder is to pick one with healthy ingredients. Look for formulations that contain natural oils to nourish hair and scalp. Avoid silicones and phthalates that can cause build-up on hair, making it look dull and dry.
Does texture powder work for all hair types?
Yes! There are no limits to who can use hair texture powder. Whether you have silky straight hair or a full head of curls, texture powder can boost your styling game. Use it to increase volume and enhance the effects of other styling products.
Does texture powder cause hair loss?
Texture powder won't cause hair loss. You should use hair texture powder according to the directions on the package to make sure you're not piling on so much that it builds up on your hair and scalp. Make sure to wash your hair regularly to remove any residue from hair texture powder and other styling products. This can reduce the risk of build-up that irritates the skin of your scalp, which can cause discomfort and affect hair growth.
Is texture powder different from dry shampoo?
Dry shampoo is a cleansing product, and hair powder is a styling one. Dry shampoo is designed to absorb excess oil from the roots of your hair. It's a great option on those days when you don't have time to wash your hair thoroughly. It can add volume and texture, but that's not its main function. You'll get better styling results by using a texture powder to boost volume and increase the appearance of thickness.
