Well, I can tell you are new to all of this. You can't go to the washroom for a few minutes to get hair like that. Everyone of those guys in RATT had a professional hair stylist working their magic. I was lucky. My first wife was a beautician and did a bang-up job on my hair for every show, but it took at least 30 minutes of someone else doing it. It takes a combination of gel and Aqua Net hair spray. (Please note that this shit is highly flammable. Avoid using it around exposed light bulbs.) The trick is to put some gel into your hand and add a little water and work the water into the gel and this thins it out and it will dry faster. Starting at the base of your hair, you work the gel from base to tip. You do this all over the top of your hair. You then let it set up a bit. Then comes the difficult part of using a hair dryer and a "teasing comb/brush" to begin the feathering process. You have to work the hair in sections. Once the hair has been feathered and looks good, you blast the hell out of it with Aqua Net. Now you hair is guaranteed to withstand the heat from stage lights and any sweating that may occur. It stays like that until you shower it out.
How's that for some "Big Hair" instructions?
