Overview
Men with short to medium hair get a water-based matte clay that adds texture and separation without a wet look. Kaolin absorbs oil and adds grip, while shea butter and olive oil smooth the feel.
Flexible hold means the style can be reworked through the day with fingers. Anyone after a slick, high-shine or rock-hard finish will find it too soft.
Who it's for
Relaxed everyday styles on short, medium, fine or flat hair are the target. People who want gel-like control or a glossy finish should choose a pomade or gel.
Pros and cons
- Matte, no-shine finish
- Reshapeable during the day
- Kaolin helps control oil
- Rinses out without buildup
- Flexible hold, not firm
- Small tub size
- Listed volume and ml figures conflict
Performance notes
Kaolin grabs oil and gives strands grip so they separate into texture, which is what produces the matte look. Because it is water-based, it washes out easily, but humid weather can soften the hold.
