How to style baby hair with gel and a brush

Extremely common in people of Latin or Mediterranean origin, baby hair (or dwarf hair) is very short hair that is concentrated in the forehead and temple area, making the hairline less neat and tidy. From Jennifer Lopez, who never hides her hair but styles it, especially when she puts her hair up in a ponytail or bun, to Megan Markle who proudly flaunts her baby hair, which is especially visible when she wears her hair parted to the side or in a gathered style, and Kim Kardashian - who resorted to laser hair removal but regretted the unnatural effect on her hairline shortly afterward - there are many celebrities who accept it and flaunt it with pleasure or who have always tried to fight it with varying degrees of success. Fortunately, the hair trends of the last few seasons have come to our aid and made baby hair part of the hairstyle. But how should we manage them to make them look good?

Before deciding how to proceed with your baby hair, it's important to know what is the purpose of these cute and problematic little hairs. As already mentioned, baby hair is nothing more than hair that is thinner and shorter than the rest of your hair. And despite the passing years, it does not grow but remains more or less the same size, just a few centimeters, renewing itself from time to time. A part of our hair that, in fact, has a very precise purpose, very similar to that of the hair on the body, which is to absorb sweat, warm and protect the skin from possible irritation and external attacks. These are all functions that, in one way or another, are good for the body and make these tiny hairs even more precious.

To enhance and style these mini locks, all you need to do is use a little hair gel and a toothbrush. In this way, you can fix the hair on your forehead, shape it or pull it towards your temples. This is a trendy style, also adopted by celebrities, which gives a slightly retro look. In fact, thanks to the gel, you can give your hair the shape you want, leaving it straight and straight, curled or in a flattened wave.

If you have curly hair, however, you should know that baby hair will give the right aesthetic and fashionable twist you need. All you need to do is take a very small amount of gel, spread it on your fingertips and create small waves on your forehead, following the curly movement. Alternatively, you can leave your hair natural and a little disheveled with a soft hairstyle, perfect for harmonizing with your dwarf hair, in a simple and very fashionable result, which reproduces the mock disheveled effect of someone who has just got out of bed or stepped out of the shower. Finally, baby hair can make even the shortest haircut look romantic, especially pixie cuts with a vintage look.
