Hello Style Forum,

Does anyone know a hair styling product that has very Low Hold + Moisturised finish to achieve this style...Edgar Ramirez (Point Break movie) - https://bit.ly/2VbikrT
https://bit.ly/2RkzCDS


Reason for Low/No Hold is I have very coarse hair, and ideally would like to avoid petroleum or oily styling products too. Any tips would be appreciated :)

Oliver,

It sounds like you might be looking for a good styling cream. It gives medium to long hair a low-no hold with a light/healthy shine. Think Brad Pitt in World War Z or Charlie Hunnam in Sons of Anarchy.

It's more of a thick cream that tames frizziness and gives hair a light, conditioned feel.

Apply it to dry hair for best results, rubbing between the hand and applying root to tip.

I'd recommend Jack Black Sleek Finish Texture Cream. Source

Thank you for the info, much appreciated. I have tried couple styling creams this week...

Hanz de Fuko - Scheme Cream
Aveda - Light Elements Texturizing Creme

However I found the Hanz de Fuko was hard to wash out, and had too much hold.
The Aveda was much worse, it felt like hair gel and it didn't work with my hair type, was hard to wash out aswell, and had too much hold. I think its case finding the right styling cream for my hair type.

I will see if I can try a sample of the Jack Black Finish Texture Cream, if not I might be stuck with serums for while.

For achieving a style similar to Edgar Ramirez's in Point Break with very coarse hair and a preference for low/no hold and a moisturized finish, you might want to consider a lightweight styling cream or a hair balm. Look for products that are water-based and contain natural moisturizing ingredients like aloe vera or shea butter. These can provide a soft, natural hold without being greasy or oily. Brands that focus on natural ingredients and hydration, like Bumble and Bumble or Aveda, could have suitable options. Experiment with a small amount to find the right balance for your hair type and style preference.
