How to Style a Quiff with Texturizing Powder

To use hair powder effectively for a Quiff, apply the product directly to dry hair, focusing on the hair strands near the base to create immediate lift. This product is designed to add grip and separation, allowing you to push the hair upward and back without the heavy, greasy feel of traditional gels or pomades.

If you are looking for a matte finish and a style that defies gravity, a quality powder is your best tool.

Why Texture Powder is Essential for the Quiff

The Quiff is all about volume at the hairline and texture throughout the top. If your hair is too soft or "slippery," the style will collapse within an hour. You need a styling aid that adds grit.

Avenue Man Extra Volumizing and Texturizing Powder solves this by coating the hair strands to create a thicker, fuller feel. It provides the invisible hold needed to keep a Quiff standing tall.

Founded by top New York men’s hairstylist Sergio Slavnov, Avenue Man focuses on products that work in the salon and on the street. Sergio recommends powder for men with fine to medium hair who struggle to get that signature swoop and height.

The Role of Bamboo Extract in Styling

This powder is infused with Bamboo Extract. In terms of styling, this ingredient is a game-changer for volume.

Bamboo extract helps fortify the texture of the hair, making each strand feel more substantial. This added density allows your hair to support its own weight when styled upward. It enhances volume and texture, giving you a controlled, gritty finish that makes styling a high-volume Quiff significantly easier.

Step-by-Step: Applying the Powder

Correct application is the difference between a messy look and a sharp style. Follow this routine for the best results.

1. Start with Dry Hair Powder must be applied to completely dry hair. If your hair is damp, the powder will clump and lose its volumizing effect. Blow-dry your hair into the general shape of the Quiff first—directing the front section up and back—before reaching for the bottle.

2. Dust, Don’t Dump Shake a small amount of Avenue Man Extra Volumizing and Texturizing Powder directly onto the hair. Focus the application on the top section where you need the most height. You can also dispense a small amount into your palm and sprinkle it over the target areas.

3. Work It Into the Hair Using your fingertips, rake through the hair to distribute the powder. Focus on working the product into the hair near the base to establish support. Do not rub it into your scalp; the goal is to coat the hair shaft to create that friction and hold needed for the style.

Shaping the Quiff

Once the powder is distributed, your hair will feel thicker and have more grip.

• Create the Lift: Use your fingers to comb the bangs upward. The powder provides immediate hold, so the hair should stay where you place it.

• Define the Texture: Pinch small sections of hair at the ends to create separation. This prevents the "helmet hair" look and adds a modern, messy texture.

• Final Adjustments: Push the sides back or down, depending on your cut, to emphasize the height on top.

Restyling Throughout the Day

One of the biggest advantages of using Avenue Man powder is flexibility. Unlike hairspray, which freezes the hair, powder allows for movement.

If your Quiff loses shape or gets flattened by wind or a hood, simply run your dry hands through your hair. The texture reactivates instantly, allowing you to push the volume back up without adding more product.

The Final Result

Using Avenue Man Extra Volumizing and Texturizing Powder gives you a hairstyle that looks natural but holds firm. You get the height of a classic Quiff with a modern, matte finish that doesn't look like you tried too hard. It is the most efficient way to turn flat, lifeless hair into a high-volume, structured look.
