Customer Reviews:
Maximum hold that is surprisingly lightweight.
I usually avoid strong-hold products because they weigh my hair down, but this doesn’t. It keeps my texture sculpted all day and feels like there is hardly anything in my hair at all.
Leaves a sticky sensation on my hands.
The texture of the product itself feels very sticky when I’m scooping it out and applying it. I have to wash my hands immediately after use, which is a bit of a hassle for quick styling.
Perfect matte finish for my short style.
I love the totally non-shiny, natural look this gives me. It defines my layers perfectly, and I never have to worry about looking like my hair is wet or greasy throughout the day.
Great for thick hair, but not for touch-ups.
It works wonders for my very thick hair, giving me the firm control I need initially. However, once it sets, trying to restyle or run my fingers through it later in the day is pretty difficult.
Can look clumpy if rushed.
If I don't take take the time to fully emulsify this paste and spread it evenly, it tends to group hair strands together. This results in a heavy, clumpy appearance, which defeats the purpose of the matte finish.
Strong hold, but the container is small.
It’s fantastic how reliably this product holds my style, even against humidity. My only minor complaint is that the jar is quite small, meaning I need to repurchase more frequently than I’d prefer.
