TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX Review
Hold
- Provides a decent hold with minimal shine and good volume, offering a natural look with a matte finish that is not as tacky as matte separation and lasts all day.
Smell
- Has a nice, pleasant smell that is not overpowering, yet strong and may not be suitable for those who dislike strong smells.
Look
- Provides a non-shiny, flat finish for thicker-looking hair, achieving an extreme waxed look with minimal product for long-lasting use.
Texture
- Features a creamlotion texture as expected, with the extreme wax offering a hard wax consistency and the dry version having a gel-like, somewhat sandy and very firm texture.
Cost
- $10-$20.
Hair Type
- Ideal for various hair types including thin wiry, fine wavy, and thick coarse hair.
Does It Last?
- All day hold.
Easy To Wash Out?
- Leaves a sticky residue on hands and hair, difficult to completely remove, making it frustrating to wash out in just one shower.
Adding Too Much?
- Overusing the product results in a loose hold and slight stickiness despite its matte finish, and can leave a greasy feeling on the hair.
Customer Reviews:
Great Hold and Long-Lasting
I love how the TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX keeps my hair in place all day long. Even in windy conditions, my hairstyle remains intact. The hold is strong but not stiff, and it gives my hair a natural look. Highly recommended!
Difficult to Wash Out
The only downside of the TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX is that it is extremely difficult to wash out. It leaves a residue in my hair that requires multiple washes to completely remove. It can be frustrating and time-consuming. Not suitable for those who prefer easy cleanup.
Provides Excellent Texture
The TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX gives my hair the perfect amount of texture. It adds volume and makes my hair look fuller. I can easily create different styles and achieve a trendy, textured look. Definitely a game-changer for my hairstyling routine!
Decent Hold, but Not Extraordinary
The hold provided by the TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX is decent, but it falls short of my expectations for an "extreme" wax. It works well for shorter hairstyles, but for longer hair or intricate styles, it lacks the necessary strength. It's an average product overall.
Leaves Residue and Greasy Feel
Using the TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX leaves my hair feeling greasy and weighed down. It also leaves a residue on my hands, making them feel sticky. I'm not a fan of the unpleasant texture and the constant need to wash my hands after styling.
Moderate Hold for Everyday Use
The TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX offers a moderate hold that is suitable for everyday use. It keeps my hair in place without making it look overly styled or stiff. It's a good choice for those who prefer a more natural and effortless look.
Product Summary:
TRENDSTARTER EXTREME WAX offers a strong hold with minimal shine, enhancing volume while maintaining a natural, matte finish. Its pleasant, cologne-like scent is notable, though it might be too strong for those sensitive to intense fragrances. A little of this product goes a long way, making it economical as a single container can last a year or more.
Suitable for a variety of hair types, including thin wiry, fine wavy, and thick coarse grey hair, this wax provides lasting hold throughout the day. However, it can leave a sticky residue on both hands and hair, requiring thorough washing. It can be challenging to wash out completely, often needing more than one shower to remove effectively. Overuse may lead to a loose hold and stickiness, despite its matte finish, and excessive application can give hair a greasy feel. Additionally, it's common for wax products to leave a greasy sensation on the forehead over time.
