How to Pick the Right Category for You

Choosing the right category starts with understanding your hair. Consider its thickness, texture, and natural tendency—does it lie flat or stand up? Do you fight frizz or lack volume? Your answers determine the ideal hold level and finish type.

If you are unsure, a medium hold gel with a low-sheen finish is the most versatile starting point. It works across most hair types and styles, and you can adjust from there. Men with fine hair should explore our light hold category, while those with thick or curly hair will find strong hold and curl-specific products more effective.

Finish type is a personal preference. High shine creates a polished, dressed-up look, while matte finishes suit casual, everyday wear. Many men keep one of each in their grooming kit to match the occasion. Browse each category above to explore the products we recommend for each type.
