Modern Messy Pompadour with Avenue Man Hair Products

Alex has been a loyal client of Sergio Slavnov since the early COVID days, trusting him consistently to keep his style sharp and current. Over the years, Sergio has refined Alex’s look into something confident, masculine, and instantly recognizable. This time, the focus was a modern messy pompadour with strong volume and clear definition — a style that feels relaxed but intentional.
To create this look, Sergio blow-dried the hair after applying Avenue Man Volume Lift Styling Mousse to build lift and structure at the roots. He then added Avenue Man Max Texture Clay through the top to enhance separation and definition. To lock everything in place and maintain the shape throughout the day, Sergio finished the style with Avenue Man Extreme Hold Hair Spray. This combination delivers long-lasting control and texture, showing exactly why Avenue Man is known for creating some of the best men’s hair products.
Sergio Slavnov, founder of Avenue Man Hair Products, has been featured in GQ, Vogue, Glamour, and Vanity Fair. His work has also been covered by the Associated Press and People Magazine, and The Washington Post called him the “Manhattan Men’s Hair Guru.” That level of recognition reflects years of hands-on expertise and real results.
