... mousse, gel, pomade, and hair spray? They all are products to hold hair in place right, so what would cause you to use one over another?

mousse dries hard and has a matte finish.

gel dries hard and has a shiney finish.

pomade dries pliable and has a shiney finish.

hairspray is used to give the hair body. like a fro. i don't believe it dries with a shine, but i could be wrong.

i used to do work for a professional men's grooming product company

oh yah, there's also hair creams, that dry plaible with a matte finish.

then there are waxes, that also dry pliable with shiney finishes

and then there are water-based pomades and oil-based pomades.

and a host of other crap that most people will or should never use.

i know more about this crap then any straight male should ever know.
