The best advice I can give is to understand your own hair, and work your quiff around that. Don't force a quiff with hairspray, it will look stupid and flop in about an hour. A good product is Pomade, it makes the hair nice, and slightly greased (if used correctly). Avoid Brylcreem & Dax, they flake.
I have to admit, I don't put anything on the area that quiffs, like Codreanu I have a natural curl at the front that quiffs all by itself, the minute the hairdryer goes on (if I don't hairdry it all bloody kinks and curls).
I can't believe I am giving hair advice!
