If you’re anything like me, then controlling your edges can be difficult. Besides, looking for a good product to help control your edges is not a piece of cake.
Do you know this struggle?
Handling your edges can be a process that leaves you feeling hopeless as if they’ll never lay longer than a few seconds.
Not to mention that the entire process can be time-consuming and overall frustrating if they don’t turn out right.
But I have good news for you. All hope is not lost.
In today’s article, I am going to share 4 simple tricks to slay your edges.
When you think about slaying your edges, what does it make you feel like saying?
#1) Wet your hair and tie it down
The first thing you need to do is wet your hair and tie it down.
Spray your edges with a little bit of water before applying a pomade and/or gel to make it last longer.
Apply an edge control product when your hair is slightly damp. Then, tie a headband or a satin scarf over your hairline and leave it on for 5-10 minutes.
This will help your edges stay slicked down and frizz-free.
This works best if you’re wearing your hair in a natural style. To be safe, I wouldn’t apply water to hair that has just been silk pressed.
2) Use the perfect combo of edge control and gel
Next, you need to mix a little bit of edge control and your favorite gel and you’ll create the perfect concoction.
For the best results, apply a thin layer of edge control with a little dab of maximum hold hair gel.
Using too much can make your hair look super white and waxy, and you definitely don’t want that!
So don’t go overboard.
