What should i use on my hair for a natural look?

I like to spike my hair up, and what i usually use is gel, spray, mousse, or hair glue but, it makes me hair real dry, and hard and i dont like it at all. I was wondering what should i use to hold my hair but give it like a more natural look, instead of a hard dry look. Heres my hair now

your hair in the second picture looks like the style you want.

if you want my honest opinion, i would say lose the spikes altogether- you'll look natural and probably much better.

if you still want to keep the spikes, then use mousse, there are many that are special formulated for a so-called "natural hold" where your hair doesn't look sticky.

Nothin makes spiked hair look natural. Does hair really grow like that. I think not. Either leave the junk off of it or cut it real short( it will stand up then), but it will look natural.
