	What is the difference between Control Paste™ and Light Elements™ Defining Whip™? Both products can be used to create definition/separation. Control Paste™ is more of a tradional wax that provides light/pliable hold, applied to hair once it is dry. Defining Whip™ has a �whipped-wax� texture. It�s formulated with organic lavender water, is very light-weight and provides medium hold, applied to damp or dry hair.
	What is the difference between Brilliant™ Humectant and Anti-Humectant Pomade? Brilliant™ Humectant moisturizes and fights frizz while enhancing hair�s natural texture. It�s great for curly hair. Brilliant™ Anti-Humectant repels humidity for a smooth finish, while eliminating flyaways and adding shine.
	How do I determine which hair spray is best for me? Hair spray performance is defined by hold. Aveda offers a full-range of hair sprays designed to provide light to extra firm hold. For example, try Air Control™ Hair Spray for light, workable hold. If you need extra firm hold with volume, try Pure Abundance™ Volumizing Hairspray.

	Should the Be Curly™ styling products be used on wet or dry hair? Be Curly™ Curl Enhancer should be applied to damp hair to intensify curl/ wave and boost shine before diffusing or lettinghair dry naturally. On dry hair, use Be Curly™ Curl Control to shape and define curl while reducing frizz.
	What styling product should I use to tame fly-aways? Air Control™ Hair Spray works wonders on static and stubborn fly-aways that won�t behave. Spray a small amount onto finger tips anad apply with your hands, or lightly mist over hair.
