I have medium length hair and to get it to look like Luke's I use Crew Molding Clay. Just don't use too much or it'll make your hair look greasy.

Leave it to grow out. Personally I am the same but I wear a hat when I go out since I think I look goofy, no hair products other than shampoo + conditioner. The only time I need wax or gel is when it's shorter & quite thinner.

Argan oil will help keep your hair healthy. Also, avoid products with alcohol and sulfates.

I've honestly got no clue. My sister is a stylist so she got it from her shop. I'm really sorry I can't help you. Though I think Great Clips sells it.

Aside from products, you can also use a straightener. When I had long hair a while ago I straightened it and it looked a lot better than the fro I had going.

I used a small amount of hair wax, followed by a bit of hair spray when I was into the whole, "slicked back hair thing", which was still within the last 12 months

 

Never under-estimate hair spray man, because:
