I want to look good, but without trying to look good. How do I style my hair so I don't look like I'm trying too hard?
Try 'Kiehl's - Creative Cream Wax.' This product keeps your hair set without a wet look. You can still run your hands through your hair to create a new look. Best on dry hair after you take a shower. High quality containing silk powders and soy bean extract.

Just use a Gillette Fusion and shave your head. No hair to style == no worries!
CREW FIBER, is the perfect stuff if you want to style your hair but hate the greasy look. you dont need much and it doesnt even look like you have something in
I keep my hair a little longer than and inch and a half, use a little bit of a paste or cream in the morning (they're pretty much all the same) and drive to work. I drive a convertible so the wind adds its own take to the style. Then I check the mirror, tone down the poofy, and it looks great. Every time.
I use Sumotech by Bumble and bumble. Stuff works great and leaves you with a more natural look.

I try keeping my hair short and use about a quarter-size squirt of gel in my hand, rub my hands together quickly, run my hands through my hair and then -- if it's cold out -- I'll run the hairdryer for about thirty seconds. If it's warm I don't usually bother with the dryer. It looks natural but the gel keeps it from going all over the place.
And the best part is I don't remember the last time I used a comb or a brush. As long as it's somewhat short, I never need more than three minutes post-shower to get my hair looking good.
Ask your hairdresser to texturize your hair. It naturally gives your hair the effect that gel or pomade does, without the middle-school-boy shine. And always use the pomade over gel. It takes less than a dime-sized amount and be sure to apply evenly.
I like styling paste (not gel). Just get a little dab and run it through your hair in the AM. It'll hold your hair and not get crispy. Redken makes a couple of good products.
