FAQ
Q: What is this product used for?
A: TCP Texture Control Paste is a firm-hold styling paste designed to add texture, definition, separation, volume or hold — useful for creating a wide variety of styles: from piecey looks, textured/“bed-head” styles, defined separation, spikes, layers, or volumized roots.
Q: What hair types or styling needs benefit most from it?
A: It works on all hair types — fine, medium, thick, straight, wavy, curly or textured. It’s especially effective if the client’s hair is fine or limp and needs volume/texture, or if they want a textured, matte, defined style rather than a smooth or sleek finish. Even the finest hair can be volumized with TCP.
Q: What are the key benefits / formula features — and why do they matter?
-
Matt finish that remains flexible all day: TCP doesn’t leave hair shiny or “wet-looking.” Instead, it delivers a matte, natural texture that holds without stiffness.
-
Micro-fibers for support & volume: The paste contains micro-fibers that help support and volumize hair — helpful for fine or flat hair needing lift and body.
-
Hydrolyzed keratin + panthenol + moisture retention agents: These help strengthen hair, improve moisture retention, reduce breakage, and add luster, so styling doesn’t overly dry or damage hair.
-
Anti-humidity agent (Hydrogenated Castor Oil): Provides some resistance against humidity, helping styles stay intact longer in humid climates or humid days.
-
Easy to rinse, re-workable & concentrated: The product washes out easily, doesn’t build up heavily, and since it’s concentrated, a little goes a long way — good for frequent stylers.
Q: What results can clients expect after using it properly?
A: Depending on how it’s used and hair type/style desired, clients can expect:
-
Added texture, separation, and definition — hair looks more styled, modern, “lived in” rather than flat or limp.
-
Increased volume — especially at roots or in fine/flat hair — giving fuller appearance.
-
Matte, natural-looking finish — styles look effortless and natural rather than glossy or greasy.
-
Flexible, workable hold — hair remains touchable and easy to re-style throughout the day (not rigid or crunchy).
-
Healthier-feeling hair — thanks to keratin and moisture retention — less dryness or damage even with frequent styling.
Q: How should TCP Texture Control Paste be applied for best results?
A: - Use a small amount (because it’s concentrated). Place it on palms, rub hands together.
-
Apply to wet or dry hair, depending on the desired effect. For volume/texture: apply to damp hair and style. For “piecey,” textured, matte look: apply to dry hair and sculpt/style with fingers.
-
You can re-work during the day — the paste remains flexible and workable, not stiff.
-
Wash out easily — good for frequent use or daily styling without heavy buildup.
Q: Is this paste safe for color-treated, chemically processed, or heat-styled hair?
A: Yes — because of its conditioning ingredients (hydrolyzed keratin, panthenol, moisture retention agents) and flexible formulation, it's suitable even for color-treated, chemically processed or frequently styled hair, as long as standard hair-care practices (like conditioning) are maintained.
