Fiber: There’s actually no fiber in hair-styling fiber. It’s a blend of beeswax, lanolin, oils and other ingredients in the form of a hard paste. Fiber needs to be warmed between your hands before applying and is most effective on dry, short or medium-length hair. Fiber has a matte (no shine) finish and adds texture to hair so it can be molded into shape. But for men with thin hair, it’s great. It doesn’t weigh thin hair down or reveal too much of the scalp like “wetter products” such as gels and pomades would. Simple Vs Complex Styles Out of these 3 hair products, the Pomade and the Forming Cream are the best for your hair’s health since they nourish and moisturize. So Is American Crew Fiber Bad for Your Hair? While Forming Cream would be fine, Pomade or American Crew Grooming Cream would generally be better for curly or wavy hair. How To Use And Apply Forming Cream In 5 Steps American Crew Forming Cream should be applied to dry or damp hair. Applying it to wet hair would be inappropriate considering it’s a water-based product and will wash out.

American Crew Forming Cream works perfectly well for curly hair, providing a medium hold and light shine just as it would for straight hair.Beauty by Earth has a floral, perfumy scent, which dissipates once it’s dried. Our tester needed to spray quite a bit on before he could work it into his hair. The spray doesn’t have much hold, but it did leave his hair looking and feeling like he’d taken a dip in the ocean. Despite being capable of all hair types, Pomade is best for people with curly hair whereas Forming Cream is more versatile. Pomade also features Quillaja Saponaria bark extract which has many great benefits for your hair and scalp’s health. Pros: Although it’s water-based consistency makes it very convenient in this sense, it does give it less of a hold than oil-based products. Traditionally, clays are known for high hold (which this product has) and matte finishes. Clays and shine generally don’t go together.

Because of its relatively light hold, men with more complex styles may struggle with Forming Cream. The hold is moveable and pliable, which means it’s great for restyling throughout the day. This versatility and flexibility would definitely be appealing to some. Long Vs Short Hair Cream: This is one of the easiest hair products to apply and is often combined with pomade and fiber. Hair cream is lightweight and doesn’t have a strong hold, so dry or barely damp hair can be styled loosely for a more casual look with a matte finish. Creams work on almost any hair length, but because they don’t have a strong hold, they’re not ideal for a spiked-up hairstyle.American Crew’s Molding Clay is unusual because it’s a clay that markets itself as having “medium shine”. Remember, start low and go slow. You want to use the minimum amount of styling product to get the job done. There are many other products to choose from when exploring the All American Crew’s line, but these 3 are great to first experiment with and see which one fits your hair type and hairstyle best.

If you’re suffering from hair loss naturally, using American Crew Fiber might not be the best product for you long-term, but you shouldn’t worry about using it generally. Is American Crew a Good Brand? You can choose to air-dry it; if so, review the styling after around an hour or so. Don’t mess with the hair while it dries; wait until it’s dried before restyling it if you think it’s necessary. If you do feel as though Forming Cream is the one for you, I’ll also include a routine you can use for applying it.Fiber isn’t as good at handling long hair as the versatile Forming Cream which can even be used as a men’s long hair product.
