How to get wax out of your hair?

[randomnut]

Ok now this is really starting to annoy me.

I use wax to style my hair as its the only thing that gets the messy look im after. But when i take a shower and wash my hair later, the s**t dont come out lol. Well half of it does. but it leaves enough residue to weigh my hair down and is really noticible. and washing several times doesnt work, it only comes out after several washes, like once a day so to get it all out takes maybe 3 days.

What am i doing wrong? Ive even tried having the water really hot to try and 'melt' the wax a bit lol. It happens with all brands of wax :(

Any ideas? thanks

(no really I don't know, washing your hair normally should do the trick.... what the hell do you put in there buddy??)

Take a towel, and go crazy on you're hair with it!

Keep rubbing and .. Yes go nuts with it :p Should get it out :laugh:

If that does not work, try a blowtorch

lol nah like i said only a bit enough to hold the style but it just doesnt shift lol. the towell thing doesnt seem to get too much out either lol.

Anyone else use wax, how do you get it out?

Last time I used wax was after my haircut and to get it out I just shampoo'ed it.

I would also like to know, what brands are you using ?

Alot of these "Cheap" brands are really bad for the hair

[someguy123]

i use wax, and i dont have any problem getting it out with one wash. but when i'm in the shower i keep turn the hot water up, so maybe its the really hot water that doing the trick. also you could try switching brands..

[Adrian]

Try out brylcream or one called "Dax"

[Swiffer]

Top notch wax Click

Just kidding :laugh:

But really, try the towel tip i gave you

[epple]

Do you even use shampoo? :rolleyes:

Try another one, or wash it 2-3 times while in the shower...

FREEZE IT! :D

[Asian Mafia]

i say go bold that should do the trick :woot: :D

[randomnut]

lol ok in response to all the replies (all of which is in my origional post .... )

I do use shampoo .. and several washes in the shower doesnt work, what does work is like once a day washing and takes maybe 2 - 3 washes (/days) to get my hair completely clean.

Does no one else seem to have the problem of wax staying in hair? lol

I like the waxed messy style, what other products (that can be bought in england) give the same effect?

thanks

Hot water and a lot of scrubbin' will get it out! A normal shampoo will should do the job, it just may take a while :whistle:

As for what I use, I just steal my brothers 'Tony and Guy' stuff. Apparently its quite expensive. Either that, or i'll buy whatever I see first in the shop that doesn't cost as much as a small country. Wax or gel - I am not really bothered.

Dax and Fudge are good too, apparently :)
