Customer Reviews:
Great hold and natural finish
This hair wax provides excellent hold throughout the day while still giving a natural finish to my hair. It allows me to style my hair exactly how I want it and keeps it in place without making it look stiff or unnatural. Highly recommended!
Difficult to wash out
One downside of this hair wax is that it is quite difficult to wash out completely. It tends to leave a residue in my hair even after multiple washes, which can make my hair feel heavy and greasy. I wish it was easier to remove.
Long-lasting hold
I love how this hair wax keeps my hairstyle in place all day long. Even in humid conditions, it doesn't lose its hold or make my hair frizzy. It gives me confidence that my hair will stay styled throughout the day.
Decent product, but nothing extraordinary
The BluMaan Original Meraki Hair Wax is an average hair styling product. It provides a decent hold and texture, but I don't find it particularly outstanding compared to other waxes in the market. It gets the job done, but there's nothing remarkable about it.
Not suitable for fine hair
If you have fine hair, I would not recommend using this hair wax. It tends to weigh down fine hair and make it look flat and lifeless. It works better for thicker hair types, so be cautious if you have fine or thin hair.
Mixed feelings about the scent
The scent of this hair wax is a personal preference, but I have mixed feelings about it. It has a strong fragrance that some may find pleasant, but I personally find it a bit overpowering. It lingers in my hair for a long time, which can be either a positive or negative depending on your preference.
Product Summary:
BluMaan Original Meraki Hair Wax is a solid hold hair product that maintains control throughout the day, though it may reduce volume by evening. It has a pleasant, minty scent reminiscent of chocolate mint cookies and doesn't feel heavy or greasy. The wax works well for fine hair, providing a matte finish that keeps lighter hair from looking lifeless, using only a minimal amount of product. However, it might result in frizzy hair as a prestyler, while offering desirable texture and volume for a more dynamic style.
The wax's fiberlike texture, which clumps into balls during application, allows for easy and pliable styling, though it might not significantly enhance texture. Priced at $18-$25, it suits Asian straight hair well, giving a natural finish and volume. It's also effective for wavy to curly hair, offering smooth application and doubling as both a prestyler and poststyler with heat protection. The product is known for its durability, holding up to 12 hours, but some users find it hard to wash out, with reports of it leaving residue.
For optimal results, it's recommended to use a small amount on towel-dried hair as a pre-styler before blow-drying. This approach helps prevent clumping and achieves a thicker, natural look without weighing the hair down.
