First of all, a guide for you if you have no idea what you're doing:

I personally have fine, wavy hair that's a bit thin in front, with an oval-ish face. I recently changed hairstylist and starting parting my hair on the left, which helps give a fuller look to the hair, and a nicer wave. Currently growing the front a bit more to see what I can do with it. I use this:
Even though it says clay, it's lighter than clay, as well as more permeable/less hold. It also has a slight shine instead of a matte finish, which I really enjoy. It's kinda the perfect balance between looking like dull hair and greasy hair. I've been thinking about trying pomade, but not too sure. I'll have to see after I finish with this one.
