This powder is especially well-suited for short and medium-length haircuts that lack volume and defined texture. The style retains its flexibility: you can touch up and restyle your hair with your fingers throughout the day.
Slick Gorilla Hair Styling Powder helps you create a voluminous, textured, and completely matte style in just a few minutes. The product leaves no greasy shine, doesn’t make your hair sticky, and allows you to restyle your hair throughout the day. For best results, apply a small amount of powder to dry hair.
Key Benefits
Instant Volume
The powder lifts the hair at the roots and helps create noticeable volume without using heavy waxes, creams, or pomades. The results are especially noticeable on fine, straight hair that tends to lose its shape quickly.
Visually thicker hair
This product increases the grip between individual strands of hair, making your hairstyle look thicker and fuller. The powder does not alter the structure or actual thickness of your hair, but it helps visually conceal a lack of volume.
Completely matte finish
The formula absorbs excess skin oil and eliminates unwanted shine. After application, the hair looks natural, without appearing damp, greasy, or coated with hairspray.
Texture without weighing it down
Slick Gorilla helps highlight individual strands, create a tousled texture, and give your hairstyle a more defined shape. When applied sparingly, the product leaves your hair feeling almost weightless.
Plastic fixation
Unlike gel, powder doesn’t form a hard crust or make your style set in place. You can tousle your hair, lift it at the roots, or change the direction of your strands throughout the day.
No distinct aroma
The powder contains no fragrance and does not overpower the scent of eau de toilette or perfume.
What kind of result does the powder produce:
- expressed basal volume;
- a matte finish with no shine;
- distinct texture;
- hair that looks thicker;
- medium-to-strong flexible fixation;
- the natural movement of the hairstyle;
- the ability to touch up your hairstyle throughout the day.
The strength of the hold depends on the length, thickness, and texture of the hair. The hold feels stronger on short, fine hair, and more moderate on long, thick, or heavy hair.
What hairstyles does it work well with?
This powder is ideal for creating modern, textured hairstyles:
- textured crop;
- quiff;
- messy hair;
- short haircuts with a fade;
- voluminous hairstyles with a lifted front section;
- naturally tousled hairstyles;
- styles that highlight individual strands.
The product can also be used as a base before applying paste, clay, or hairspray: the powder adds volume at the roots, and the additional styling helps define the shape and ends of the hair more precisely.
Slick Gorilla Hair Styling Powder is especially recommended for:
- fine hair lacking volume;
- straight and fine hair;
- short and medium-length haircuts;
- hair that loses its shape quickly;
- oily roots;
- completely matte styles;
- quick styling without complicated tools;
- hairstyles that need to be touched up throughout the day.
On very dry, brittle, heavily bleached, or damaged hair, the powder should be used with particular caution, as its absorbent ingredients may exacerbate the feeling of dryness.
How to Use Hair Powder
Apply the powder only to completely dry hair.
- Style your hair with your fingers, or blow-dry it in the desired direction first.
- Shake the package.
- Apply a small amount of powder directly to the roots (recommended for short hair) or rub it between your palms first (for long hair).
- Massage your hair with your fingers, lifting it at the roots.
- Create the desired texture and direction of the strands.
- If necessary, gradually add a little more of the product.
Start with a small amount. Using too much powder can make your hair too dry or stiff, or leave a white residue, especially on dark hair.
Application Methods
Directly to the roots
This method ensures maximum volume at the roots and stronger hold. Divide your hair into several sections, apply a small amount of the product, and work it through thoroughly with your fingers.
Through the palms of my hands
Sprinkle a little powder into the palm of your hand, rub it in, and apply it to your hair. The result will be more even, soft, and natural, but the volume at the roots may be less pronounced.
How does powder work?
Absorbent mineral ingredients soak up excess oil, eliminate shine, and increase friction between strands of hair. As a result, hair holds its shape better and appears more voluminous.
The fixing polymer creates a light, invisible film on the hair’s surface that helps keep the style in place. The silicone elastomer improves the distribution of the powder and makes the product’s texture more uniform.
Glycerin helps to partially counteract the drying effect of the absorbent ingredients; however, the powder is primarily a styling product rather than a skincare product.
Important recommendations:
- Do not apply the product to wet hair.
- Do not use a large amount at one time.
- Avoid contact with the eyes.
- Do not inhale the powder.
- Do not apply to irritated or damaged scalp.
- Wash your hair regularly with shampoo to prevent styling products from building up.
- If the product gets into your eyes, rinse them thoroughly with water.
- Keep out of the reach of children.
