Im trying to find a way to gel my hair, almost
Uchiha Sasuke style, but hate the VERY piecy look.

Price is no issue, quality is what counts.

Ive seen some hair that looks quite nice cause it
looks like there is hardly any in it but still keeps its
super stiff form. But the wet, thin, or icky looking
hair is silly. And I was wondering how to get that
authentic Japanese hair, when Im clearly white.

What products do you recommend?
Have any styling instructions or tips?

Comments? Let me know! ^__^

Use hair spray. MAny people make the mistake of using el for spiking the back parts of their chosen hairstyles........ baaaaaaaaaaaaaad.
It falls out of place, loses it's look, and it's really gross and heavy feeling, it's distracting.
Hair spray, just hold up the start of where you want your hair to stand out, and spray, hold and spray, working your way down until you get it finished. Having a friend help is also better with the extra perspective and set of hands.

I hate gel. So I wouldnt use it even if it DID work.
I was thinking a form of wax hair spray, but then I
noticed my hair is a little to long to stick up with
success at this length and Im not cutting it.

Then get a friend to help do your hair from the back, and bomb it with the hair spay.

"Bombing" heh i like that. I have the same problem with my hair being to long, But sometimes less hair is more for them to actuallt stay up.

I think their hair is finer too, it all has to do with your own hair and how it'll work with the prducts you can purchase.

My hair is naturaly stickey-uppy like that, so I use some regular hair grease to keep it down, but when I want it to stick up I use a Hot iron and hair spray, of course thats because I have black peoples hair, so this may or may not work for you. sweatdrop

Get in touch with Japanese cosplayers. They use this stuff thats like glue and your wig (or hair if you use it) will stay in place for 8 hours.

I definantly suggest using hairspray. It works SO much better than gel or pomade and looks nice, if you use the not-cheap-but-not-too-expensive-kind. ^^
