So what's the difference between HAIR GEL and HAIR WAX?

I'm a guy with short hair, looking for a more natural look rather than the spiked, gelled hair I have now...

So, should I switch to wax?

Actually I think it all depends on what you are looking for. Some gels still offer that natural look. Gel doesn't always mean spiked, get a different level. The gels that I purchase come in numbers/strenghts 1-10. One just means you use it for a bit of control, you'd never be able to spike your hair with it, ten, of course, means ultimate spikes.

Wax, eh, I don't really suggest was either. The issue with wax is that it can cause build up in your hair. And depending on your hair texture, and color it may not look to great. It will be shiny on your hair, and if you use to much it will be thick and oily. Depening on the type of wax that you use. If you want to use wax, find one that is very light, possibly one that is clear or light yellow in color.

Stay away from pomade. It is not the same as wax...it is like wax..but no, no no! Pomade is thicker than wax, it will do a mess on your hair and you don't want that since you are wanting the natural look.

I would actually suggest a hair creame wax. It is like wax, but much lighter. It does not lead to buildup, and your hair will still have that natural look. Regular wax will weigh your hair down and using wax, trust me, you will washing your hair everyday.

Yes, wax doesn't get hard. Don't use too much, though. It will look greasy.

hair wax is more natural than hair gel. I've recently switch to hair wax because its a lot more easy to style my hair with.

About hair gel, sometimes I have the problem of the hair gel hardening and breaking off from my hair like dried glue.

Hair gel is very sticky and can flake. It does hold your hair together better and will give you a better spiked/crispy look. Hair wax is on the softer side with-out the flakes. It will also hold your hair together, but not as much as the gel. The wax will give you a more natural look, but make sure that you don't use too much because then it will look greasy. I would rotate between the two so you don't get too much build up.
