What wax/hairspray products work well together.

i have fructis wax and dax wax wax and i tried both products with hairspray to get a hard hold, but the hairspray does not have much effect to my hair when ive used wax. Anyone know of a wax product that works well with hairspray to give a hard hold?

Wow there's a huge banner on every page of RS and you're asking that?

www.kakoistyle.com

I use grunge mat and whatever hairspray I can find to hold it in place all day.

If you can wait a month, surface shipping is cheap

Or buy a few more things. If you buy 2 or 3 products, shipping isn't that bad at all.

Probably! I've had several people use that method already! I would never do it, but it's a LOT cheaper than normal airmail.

A lot of people order $150+ of product, and in that case EMS is about the same price as Airmail. That only takes 2-3 days to arrive.

Just now, someone ordered a $12 wax, and spent $25 on EMS shipping. That I don't understand.

HAAH same here. It's ridiculous how much we're actually paying for international shipping but then again it's international.
However, surface is just wayyyy too long, its 2-3months i believe and airmail isn't worth the money.

Green doesn't have a very strong hold. If it's not enough for you, try Orange instead. It's similar, but slightly stronger.
