How to choose a hair powder

Hold. The label tells you the grip. RedOne Powder Wax Cloud and L3VEL3 Super Strong are sold as strong hold for short styles that need to stay put, while L3VEL3 Light Hold and Elegance Light Control suit softer, messier texture.

Finish. Styling powders dry to a matte, natural look. If you want some shine, use a little powder at the roots and a wax or pomade through the lengths. Our guide to matte vs high-shine hair wax explains the difference.

Hair length. Powder works best on short to medium hair, where it lifts the roots and adds grip. On longer hair, keep it to the crown and roots.

How to use texture powder

  1. Start with dry hair, blow-dried if you want extra volume.
  2. Tap a small amount onto the roots, or onto your fingertips for more control.
  3. Work it in with your fingers and push the hair into shape.
  4. Add a little more only where you need more lift. A small amount goes a long way.

Hair powder FAQs

Is texture powder the same as hair powder?

Yes. Brands call it texture powder, volume powder, styling powder or dust wax, but it is the same type of product: a light powder that adds lift, grip and a matte look at the roots.

Is hair powder better than wax or clay?

Powder suits volume and a dry, natural look on shorter hair, while wax and clay give more control and definition. Many barbers use both: powder at the roots for lift, then a small amount of wax or clay to finish. Browse men's hair wax or all men's hair styling products.

Which hair powder has the strongest hold?

Check the label. Of the powders we stock, RedOne Powder Wax Cloud and L3VEL3 Super Strong Styling Powder are sold as strong hold, while L3VEL3 Light Hold and Elegance Light Control give a lighter hold.
