Natural, soft, voluminous and textured hairstyles are officially in!  Matte hair products have been the most widely used and in tend hair products for about a year now, with almost every major brand on the market jumping on board.

How to use The Bearded Chap Natural Matte Cream?

Natural Matte Cream can be used as a stand alone product, to add volume and a texture with just one lick in your finger for that natural look. Alternatively, use 3-4 licks for those classic hairstyles  like pomps, crops and executive parts. When used on styles like these, it will leave your hair looking sharp but soft via the natural matte finish, stopping any fly aways. A super versatile hair product that offers a care free, strong hold, with textured and voluminous looks along complete matte finish. Suitable for all hair types. There are two main ways to apply and style your hair with sea salt texture spray. 

1. Curly or wavy hair - The first way to use is to apply 1-2 licks (scoops) of Natural Matte Cream to your hair while it's wet. Scrunching your hair to give it some texture and volume if you have curly hair or scruffing with your hand if you have short/ straight hair. Allowing your hair to dry naturally. You can also pair with the sea salt texture spray in your hair to enhance the curls or waves and texture even further! Finish with a hair dryer with diffuser on until dry. 
2. Straight hair - Looking to keep your hairstyle down all day without the flyaways? Apply 3-5 licks of Natural Matte Cream working through your entire hair, backwards and forwards until you have complete coverage. The style using your comb or brush to the desired hair style, like your pomp, executive cut ect. This bad boy is not going anywhere!   

Natural Matte Cream is perfect for all hair types. There are a variety of different hair types. These can be easily broken down into categories of texture, density and wave/curl.  Breaking it down more easily we have: 

1. Straight hair
2. Wavy hair
3. Curly hair
4. Afro hair

In The Bearded Chap Natural Matte Cream formula,  We've created a complexity that adds a special coating to the hair shafts. This special coating provides structure and support to the hair shaft allowing it to stand up on its own giving texture and volume, and depending on how much you use, it will give your hair strong structure, which allows the hair to bend less or more naturally when using less. This gives you that matte natural look, and depending if you use a lot or a little a soft natural look. Through scrunching or blow drying to add heat, locking your hair into place, this also allows the curls to lock into their natural pattern. This curl-enhancing effect tends to work best for those with types 2, 3, and 4, however you can get some good volumes for those who have type 1 (especially those loose pomps).

We still recommend you should give your hair a thorough rinse and conditioning between uses of any sea salt texture spray.
