Hold Gel

Jack Black Body Building Hair Gel is an Alcohol Free Gel that is designed to give your hair a firm hold but not weigh it down, cause build up, or dry your hair out. I have used many different hair styling products in my life so I am very particular in what I like and don't like. I have used Pomades, Gels and Hair Sprays and just about anything else hair related. I go for a very clean cut wet look, with the front part of my hair spiked up. Needless to say, not many gels can keep up with my hairs natural tendency to want to sit flat on my head.

So now that you have an idea of what my personal hair style is, I will get on to the review of Jack Black's Body Building Hair Gel. So after my normal morning routine and getting dressed, I waited until my hair was perfectly dry (allows the gel or styling product to adhere to your hair better and give you a firmer hold) I placed a little more than a nickel sized amount in my hand. I used a little more than Jack Black recommends because I want a firmer hold.

I worked the gel in between my hands so that when I applied it to my hair it would apply evenly. I worked it in from the front to the back. As I stated before I like to spike the front part of my hair, so it makes sense to apply from the front to the back.

Now comes the styling, I ran my hands through my hair from front to back to get all of my hair to stand up. Then I run my palm from back to front in order to lay down my hair a little in a uniform manner. Now onto the front part of my hair. I usually wait a 10 or 15 seconds or so before trying to spike it up so the gel has a little time to begin getting firm. So I spiked up the front of my hair, It took a time or two of running my hand upwards from my forehead to get all of the hairs to stand up properly. But that might have been because I used a little more than Jack Black recommends and it was still a little too wet.

So now that I have my hair styled it was just a matter of waiting to see how long it took the Body Building Gel to fully harden. After about 10 to 15 minutes the gel fully hardened. Not as fast as some of the other products I have tried, but it is not a big deal to me.

The next task at hand was to see what kind of hold the Jack Black Gel gave my hair. I pressed my hand onto my hair and expected it to be solid and hard, but my hair did not feel like brick. My hair was flexible, but popped right back into place after I moved my hand. This was not something I was used to out of a gel, most gels that I have used dry into a rock like form and do not allow the hair to move at all. I really liked the fact that my hair did not feel as though it was glued to my head. I also really liked that is did not make my hair feel heavy and like a solid object.

So how did Jack Black Body Building Hair Gel hold up to a strenuous MetroMan day? Very well! At the end of the day there were a few stragglers, but over all my hair style looked like it did before I left the house. I was very impressed that my hair style held up as well as it did, while not feeling like a solid object.

In conclusion I really liked Jack Black Body Building Hair Gel. It was very easy to style, It did not act like a glue, and it lasted all day. On top of that it is Alcohol Free which is very important because alcohol dries your hair out. I would recommend Body Building Hair Gel to men who style there hair in a casual manner and are looking for a good hold, without gluing your hair to your head.

If you are looking for an extreme style and are looking for a product that is super firm and locks your hair into place I would not recommend Jack Black Body Hair Gel for that. This gel is great for medium long last hold, but is not designed as a hair glue for extreme styling.
