Hair Gels
Hair gels are typically used to stiffen the hair to create a number of hairstyles. They are also used to keep hair in place in spite of wind or to give the user a wet look. They have been an important part of certain subcultures. People who sport a punk look usually have a hairstyle called a "mohawk." This mohawk is styled by shaving or shortening the hair significantly at both sides of the head, while the longer part of the hair in the middle is made to stand up. Hair gels are usually used to make the hair stand. Some other styles may also include spikey, slicked back, and even the "messy" look.
Hair gels are usually made of cationic polymers, vinylpyrrolidone, methacrylamide, and N- vinylimidazole.
There is also another variant of hair gels known as the mousse. The mousse has almost the same effect as hair gels, but typically has a weaker hold than most hair gels.
Brands of hair gels
There are a lot of different brands of hair gels that offer different effects. Some brands offer lines of hair gel the have weak to extremely strong holds. Other brands even offer hair gels that give artificial color to the hair of the user.
