Whatever your hair colour, type or texture, your barnet could always benefit from a dose of nourishing hair cream. Introducing a regular hair styling cream into your beauty collection can do wonders for your confidence AND for your hair. So ditch that expensive styling treatment and grab yourself a hair balm, finish cream, styling serum, volumising cream, hair thickening cream or hair texture cream. All those mentioned are designed to nourish the hair and set its style to last the day. Many are enriched with high-quality vitamins and minerals that improve gloss factor and overall hair quality. If you suffer from thinning hair or frizz-prone hair, there's even more reason to add a luxurious hair styling cream to your collection.

Just as a moisturiser is essential for keeping your skin hydrated, hair cream is a must for smooth, healthy hair. Many are starting to include hair moisturiser in their grooming routine, something that's set to continue. Hair cream is known to prevent split ends, soften hair, prevent hair damage, and act as a healthy antioxidant. With all these advantages and more, is it any wonder so many customers are adding it to their shopping lists? We’ll run through some hair cream options for different hair types...

Hair finishing cream

This multipurpose hair cream is ideal for taming frizz and protecting it from heat styling. You only need to run a small amount of finishing cream through your hair to impart a protective layer into the hair follicles and strengthen them against past, present and future damage. Finish cream is the ultimate hair styling cream for protection and damage prevention - so make sure you’re it using alongside curlers, straighteners and other heat styling products that can burn and dry out the hair.

Hair styling cream

For a daily styling cream that replaces the need for expensive hair styling treatments, there’s just solution. Styling cream weightlessly blocks humidity and smooths your hair’s natural texture without clogging it up with the product. Frizz is instantly reduced for locks that feel softer and better-moisturised than ever before.

Flawless hair finishing polish

For a final step between styling and hair perfection, look no further than flawless finishing polish. Depending on which Sephora product you choose, the ingredients may include luxurious horse chestnut extract or seaweed proteins for the ultimate nourishing deep condition.

Smoothing hair balm

Those looking to introduce a glossy quality to their hair will benefit from a smoothing hair balm. Using essential oils such as macadamia and olive oil to nourish your locks, hair balm works in a similar way to styling serum. Dry hair is given a new lease of life as the vitamin-rich balm is smoothed through it, tackling damage and upping your gloss factor. Let it be your essential daily hair cream!

Hair thickening cream

Those conscious about their naturally thin hair will benefit from a hair thickening cream. This long-lasting cream adds thickness to each strand thanks to a miracle formula only found in state-of-the-art hair balms. Simply use a small dollop of hair thickening product daily, smoothing through the hair as you would any hair balm. Enter your new, volumised locks!

4 Steps to Perfecting Your Look

Did you know hair cream can also help style your hair as well as protect it? Hairstyling cream is a fantastic alternative to hair gel which can sometimes leave behind a sticky residue. Cream-based products are better equipped at melting into your hair and vanishing, ninja-style! So which kind of hair cream is best for you? How is it used? We'll run through our four essential steps for effective hair cream usage. Ready? Let's go!

1. Use a daily hair cream: The first and simplest step to healthy hair for men is introducing a daily hair cream into your routine. Getting into the habit of using this regularly isn’t as tough as you might think. The Daily Hair Cream by Christopher Robin combats dryness and split ends by penetrating each individual hair follicle and adding moisture. This particular cream uses sandalwood pulp and barley grain to add natural shine without the sticky finish that some gel products leave behind. Daily hair cream isn’t difficult to use: smooth it through your hair on a daily basis and bid goodbye to split ends and breakages. Hurrah!

2. Get set with a styling cream: As mentioned above, hair cream is as much for styling as it is protecting and nourishing. Luckily, the Styling Cream by VERB does a bit of both as it prepares your hair for the day. Using nourishing natural ingredients to soften hair and prevent split ends, it crafts a healthy base for hair styling. In addition, it smooths and adds shine to your hair while bringing texturised definition to even the flattest barnet. If you use heat styling products, a protective cream is essential to prevent hair damage. No one wants dry, sizzled ends, do they?

3. Perfect your look with grooming cream:Once your hair is healthy and well-protected against the harsh effects of heat styling, what’s next? A grooming cream is an ideal addition to any man’s wash bag as it provides an instant styling solution wherever you are. American Crew Grooming Cream comes in a handy metal tin that can be thrown in a satchel or back pocket for grooming on-the-go. Its antioxidant properties protect hair from the sun while the smooth formula expertly styles your hair. Doubling up as a hair moisturiser, the water-rich formula prevents your hair from looking dry. For best results, scoop a small amount of American Crew Grooming Cream into the palms of your hands and rub it through your hair, starting at the back of your neck. Style your hair however you want and let it dry. You're good to go!

4. Pull out the stops with gravity paste: When you need a dramatic style and you need it now, ensure Hanz De Fuko's Gravity Paste is close at hand. This quick-drying styling paste contains a combination of innovative ingredients including beeswax, castor oil and virdis leaf. This miracle combination binds hair into any style you want while keeping it well-moisturised. You only need a dime-sized amount for great results.
