TOP TIP
After washing your hair, whilst damp apply small amounts of the Hairbond Wonder Primer to your hands and begin rubbing it in, all over your hair. Then take a comb or a brush and style in a parting down your most natural side. Once you have made the parting, use a hair dryer to blow the hair in the direction you’ve already brushed or combed it.
After the hair has dried your style should be visible and now you will only need to add a finishing product for the final touch.
A great product to use for this style is the Hairbond Gripper Pomade..
