What is a hair balm anyway?
Hair balm is a semi-solid (balm) styling product. It is made mainly from beeswax and other oils with a thick texture, and it gives shine and moisture to the entire hair. It is also ideal for creating a bundled or wet look, and can reduce the spreading and dryness of hair, making it effective in reducing the appearance of rogue hair. In addition, many balms can be used as body moisturizers as well as for hair. Because of their versatility, they are popular for using up excess styling products.
How is it different from wax?
Wax,” a staple of men’s hair setting, is characterized by its high setting power. It is easier to maintain hair rise and curl than hair balm, making it suitable for creating a well-defined style. Hair balms, on the other hand, do not have as much setting power. Because of its moderate holding power and shine, it is recommended for setting hair on holidays when you want to enjoy a more relaxed and fashionable look rather than for business occasions. Also, many hair balms are made from natural ingredients, so they are less stressful on the hair.
