Choosing a styling product gets much easier when you stop shopping by product type and start with the problem you are trying to solve. More hold is not always the answer. Hair that feels flat may need lift. Hair that feels heavy may need a proper reset. A style that will not stay where you put it may need stronger structure, while hair that simply needs direction may only require a lightweight foundation.
That is the idea behind the Redline R-Series. Each product has a specific job in the routine: R-10 Reset Shampoo cleans the slate, R-20 Liquid Clay establishes direction and flexible control, R-30 Structure Clay adds stronger shape and definition, and R-40 Texture Powder targets lift and dry texture.
You can use the complete system, combine two products that solve different problems or keep the routine as simple as one product. The goal is not to put more product in your hair. It is to use the right product, in the right amount, for the result you actually want.
Use the guide below to identify what your hair is doing now—and the Redline product or combination designed to address it.
If your hair feels like it has too much buildup
Start with a reset rather than adding styling product. R-10 Reset Shampoo is the cleansing choice when sweat, oil or styling residue is making the hair feel heavy. Rinse thoroughly before rebuilding your style.
If you want to look put together without looking over-styled
Choose R-20 Liquid Clay. Use a small amount for flexible, natural-looking control. When you want to establish direction while blow-drying, apply it to towel-dried hair and guide the hair into shape as it dries.
If your hair will not cooperate
Choose R-30 Structure Clay when the priority is stronger structure and definition. Distribute a small amount thoroughly, then shape. R-20 can precede it when the hair also needs direction and preparation.
If your hair falls flat
R-40 Texture Powder is the targeted finishing option for root lift and dry texture. Begin with completely dry hair. R-20 followed by blow-drying can establish the shape first; R-40 then addresses the areas that need extra lift.
If the products you use feel heavy
Before changing products, reduce the amount. Apply a little, distribute it evenly and assess. Choose R-20 for natural-looking control or R-40 for targeted dry texture. Use R-30 where stronger structure is needed instead of coating the entire style.
Choose a combination for two different jobs
Preparation plus stronger structure: R-20 + R-30. Foundation plus lift: R-20 + R-40. Deliberate shape plus targeted texture: R-30 + R-40. Start with the smallest routine that gives you the result you want.
AVOID THIS MISTAKE
Buying for the highest hold rating when the actual problem is flat roots or product buildup.
Common Questions:
What should I start with for fine or flat hair?
Keep the amount small. Use R-20 to direct the hair while blow-drying, then apply R-40 selectively at the roots if you need additional lift.
Do I need the complete kit?
No. The kit offers all four jobs, but a single product or pair may be enough for your routine.
