To try the wet hair look for yourself, you'll first want to gently towel dry your hair as soon as you step out of the shower. You want to keep some moisture in your hair so it's damp. Bridget Brager, celebrity hairstylist and T3 ambassador, tells InStyle, "The first step to achieving the wet look that will last you all night long is to have your hair completely smoothed out before adding your products." Brush your wet hair while minimizing damage with a comb until you've gotten rid of all of the tangles.
Now, it's time to add products. You want to make sure you create the perfect balance of gel and cream. Nunzio Saviano, a hair expert and salon owner, tells Byrdie, "If you just use a gel, it will leave the hair crunchy, and if you just use a cream, it will make the hair look greasy. However, the combo of the two works really well." Start with a small amount of both and run them through your hair.
