Mens straight hair tips

I really hope you get a chance to answer this because I can’t get across to you how much my bad hair gets me down. I struggle with it every day. It’s dry, fluffy without product and an unmanageable mess with the product! It’s EXTREMELY straight; any length on the sides stick out a mile and my crown is in an awkward place, off to the side. I’ve never managed to find a product that will tame it all! Wax seems to work a bit better than gel, but still, it’s awful, awful hair by any standards. I get it shaven off every once in a while out of sheer frustration, but it doesn’t really suit me.
Hope you can help in any way. I need some mens straight hair tips.

Thanks for your email.
I am always sad when people get so wound up with their hair that they do not know what to do or ask for. By the description, you have given me and without looking at your hair, these are your mens straight hair.
Make your hair work for you.
If you are trying to get your hair to do something that it really does not want to do then you are going to have a few bad hair days. If your crown is pushing your hair in a certain direction then you are best to work with your hair then battling against it. This could be mean pushing your hair to the left, right, forward, or a textured look
A short fade.
A short fade on the back and sides of the hair, when cut every 3 weeks, will prevent the sides of the hair from sticking out and becoming annoying. This is an option that is very popular at the moment. By having the back and sides clippered down it takes the focus off the sides and back and buts in onto the top of the hair.
Tricky crowns.
It is vital that anyone with a tricky crown be it single or double or a cowslick approach their haircut with a plan. The general rule of thumb is to leave these areas longer or cut them shorter to allow for the growth pattern.
When I approach haircuts like this (and this is a problem with more gentlemen than you may think), the best mens straight hair tips are cut “quirks” in the hair when dry. If these areas are wet then it is very difficult to see where the growth pattern is as the structure of the hair is different when wet compared to dry. Therefore a dry cut may be the better option for you so that your barber/stylist can see what is happening with your straight hair and make allowances for the crown.
Styling.
This is something that is often very difficult for guys as some stylists/barbers are more bothered about making a sale than showing how to achieve the desired look at home. The main thing to remember when styling your hair would be to blow-dry your hair first. This will set your hair and allow the styling product to get into the hair. If you imagine the inside of your hair is like a spring. When dry the spring stays solid, this is because hydrogen bonds keep the hair in place. These hydrogen bonds are broken down by the water, once broken down this will allow the hair to settle into its natural state if not manipulated into place by a blow-dry. A great example of this is when ladies go out with straightened hair, if there is no protection spray on their hair then moisture will get into the hair and allow the hair to go back to its natural state.
Fortunately for yourself, you will not need to go through the tiresome routine of straightening your hair simply blow-dry into what way your hair naturally wants to go and use a product like “Pall Mall Barbers Pliable Clay” this gives a natural look and can be manipulated throughout the day without plastering your hair in product.
