Matrix styling products

[Melanie86]

Hi, I've got a wedding trial in a couple of weeks and she wants her hair up and sleek (no curls). I use Matrix but I don't do a lot of bridal hair at the moment, so I was wondering what were the best Matrix products to use? I was going to use heated rollers to get the volume and maybe do something like a plete. Is there anything that will help keep it in but not make the hair too hard? And what blow drying product is best to use? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hey, blow dry with the amplify... They do a thickening gel
And as regards to hairspray, I've forgotten the range name within matrix... But it's black and red packaging and they do 2 diff hairsprays, one is softer.
Hope this helps, been a while since I used matrix!

Ohhhh matrix....YAY!! my Forte!! lol what ya got in stock? I'd say shampoo and condition with something for volume either biolage or Total Results, Then thermo glide on just the very ends to keep em smooth an heat protected, and Go big mousse throughout the rest of the hair, blow dry big and get a curl on it before putting rollers in, when you put them in just lightly mist the section of hair with some Iron-in, leave rollers to cool an away you go, maybe try zoom force as your spray when your putting it up so you get a bit more working time?

Arr thanks guys, this has been really helpful. By black and red do you mean the big sexy hair range? I used to use Matrix in the salon before I went mobile and liked it so I could do with some product training really. I just want to make sure I get it right as I don't have much confidence with knowing I'm using the right things with having no one to double check with. Thank you both :biggrin:
