what to do with curly hair on a photo shoot?
Hi All, I'm hoping to get some guidance for a Male model I'll be working with soon. Normally I'd ask a hair stylist on set but as I haven't found any to work with yet in the VA Beach area, I'm asking it here. This gentleman has naturally curly hair and his complaint is: "Windy days really make [his] hair look horrible, as does having to take on and off shirts. [He] can always rewet it but in 40 mins its dry again and curls right back up." We'd both like to know how do you tame curly hair on a man? Is there a product or a technique that might help in this without making it too stiff or looking too feminine? I appreciate any help you can give. Thanks Feb 03 06 02:58 pm Link john frieda frizz ease serum. i have wild and crazy multi textured hair and it works great for me. also, a little splash of water and a few rakes of your fingers works just fine.

Feb 03 06 03:04 pm Link She's right, John Frieda's frizz ease serum rocks!!! My hair has a mind of it's own so whenever I want to control it without whipping out the flat iron-I use the serum and the moouse (did I spell that correctly?)-lol.

It also gives it a shine, so as it dries it won't appear rough. Also IC tea tree oil moisturizer works, because it helps weight it down a bit.

Any suggestions on that? Feb 03 06 03:25 pm Link blowdryer...and that can be scary without serum Feb 03 06 03:28 pm Link NitaCashmere wrote: Ohhhhh boy.
