While your hair is still damp, blow dry it in the opposite direction of the cowlick to help flatten.
Apply a strong-hold gel or pomade to keep the cowlick in place. This is especially effective for short hairstyles.
Use a flat iron to smooth out the cowlick. Be careful not to overheat and damage your hair.
Use bobby pins or clips to hold the cowlick in place while your hair dries. This can help to train the hair.
Use texturizing sprays or powders to add grip and texture, making it easier to style your hair.
Experiment with different partings to find a position that works with the cowlick instead of against it.
If the cowlick is near the front, a short haircut can minimize its impact. Consult with a hairstylist.
Longer hair can weigh down a cowlick, making it less noticeable. Allow your hair to grow.
Keeping your hair trimmed regularly can help manage cowlicks by maintaining a consistent length.
If your cowlick is particularly stubborn, visit a professional stylist who can recommend specialized.
