Mauricio Pina shares tips for male hair finishing and styling
Hair finishing is presented as a crucial step that shapes the final look of a men's haircut. Stylist Mauricio Pina, artistic director of the Jacques Janine salon network, explains that while the cut provides the base, daily finishing reveals the style’s full potential. He advises clients to learn home‑care techniques as part of a complete beauty experience.
Pina outlines five key recommendations: choose the right product for the desired result (pomades or waxes for control and definition, creams or leave‑ins for frizz control, sprays for hold), start with a small amount to avoid heaviness, apply the product evenly by spreading it in the hands first, adjust the technique to achieve a natural versus structured finish, and match product weight to hair type (light products for fine hair, stronger hold for thick hair). Specific product suggestions include Charming Barbershop’s Extra Strong Fixation Wax.
