One takeaway we NEED to mention
Both Rob and Joost swear by the Esquire Thickening Cream. They work it into their hands and then run it through the hair as a precut solution. It helps keep the hair movable, workable and can sometimes eliminate having to use a hair clip or re-wetting the hair throughout the cut.
