A good wax makes the difference between a hairstyle that looks good in the morning and one that stays sharp all day. But which one do you choose? At Flexbarbers in Arnhem we hear that question in the chair every day, so here's an overview.
Step 1: choose your finish – matte or shine?
The finish determines how your hair looks:
- Matte: a natural, modern look without shine. Your hair looks like there's little product in it, but stays in place.
- Shine: a polished, well-groomed look. Ideal for sleek, classic styles.
Step 2: choose your hold – how firm should it be?
The hold determines how firmly your hair stays in place. Strong hold is great for sharp styles and long days. Flexible hold lets your hair move more naturally, and you can easily restyle it during the day.

- Work it through your hair from back to front, then shape your style with your fingers or a comb.
