Sometimes the best way to get rid of a cowlick isn’t to get rid of it at all. Use your fingertips to gently tug your bangs down to where you want them to fall. Take a little of the paste (not too much!), warm it up in your hands, and rake it through with your fingers. All you need is some texture paste to add a bit of grip and control. Use paste to tame a cowlick in your bangsīangs with cowlicks are hard to style, but not impossible. If the blow-dryer didn’t quite cut it or you need to be able to reach closer to the roots, Kusero says a thin flat iron in combination with your smoothing spray will do the trick in straightening a cowlick. Finish with a cool shot of your hair dryer to lock hair in the new direction and a little flexible hairspray and smoothing serum to control the hair without weighing it down. After you apply your smoothing spray and heat protectant to damp hair, blow-dry the section with low heat and use your brush move hair to the left, right, and down. Kusero says the idea here is to confuse the hair by blow-drying it in various directions.
Take everything we learned about the right haircut for a cowlick and do the opposite when heat-styling it. Kusero recommends the IGK Good Behavior Spirulina Protein Smoothing Spray, which acts as a temporary smoothing keratin treatment, protects against heat damage, provides 24-hour frizz control-all things you want when smoothing out a cowlick. On the days when you want to wear a sleek, smooth style and you don’t want your cowlick stealing the show, grab a heat protectant, a hairspray, a hair serum, and a smoothing spray. Just tell your stylist you want to minimize your cowlick. If your cowlick happens to be in your bang area, Kusero says your stylist could lightly cut into growth to reduce some of the bulk underneath, which will allow the hair on top to lay perfectly. How do you hide a cowlick?Īccording to Kusero, during a cut, your stylist can follow the growth pattern of the cowlick and cut in the same direction of the hair to ensure it will lay as smoothly as possible. Since your cowlick is the result of your actual hair growth, no amount of brushing, combing, “training” your hair, or whatever will change that forever, but with a one-two punch of the right products and styling techniques, you can get that sucker to calm down a little. You can’t get rid of a cowlick permanently, but you can temporarily hide it, smooth it, or disguise it. Cowlicks are especially common in the front hairline area and the crown of your head, and although they can occur in all hair types and textures, they’re most noticeable and prevalent in curly-to-straight hair types. So how do you know if you have a cowlick? Kusero says to look for hair that grows in a swoop pattern or a clockwise circle, kinda like a wave.
