Aftercare & Maintenance

You will be shown how to recreate the finish at home, including simple steps for blow drying direction and how much product to use. Expect clear advice on matte paste, cream or spray options that suit your hair.

Most gents rebook every 4 to 6 weeks to keep the outline clean. Longer styles can stretch to 6 to 8 weeks. Use heat protection when blow drying and a gentle cleanse to avoid product build-up.
