How to Use Matte Paste

Matte Paste is designed for those who want strong hold, natural texture, and a matte finish without sacrificing flexibility. Unlike traditional pomades that emphasize shine, Matte Paste delivers a dry, natural appearance while providing the control needed for a wide variety of modern hairstyles. Its versatile formula allows for easy styling and restyling throughout the day without leaving the hair looking greasy or weighed down.

What Styles Is It Best For?

Matte Paste excels at:

-Textured crops
-Messy hairstyles
-Quiffs
-Modern pompadours
-Side parts
-Natural, low-shine looks

If you prefer texture, volume, and a natural finish over shine, Matte Paste is an excellent choice. It works well on straight, wavy, and curly hair and is suitable for short to medium-length hairstyles.

Step 1: Start With Clean Hair

For the best results, begin with clean hair. Matte Paste can be applied to either dry or lightly damp hair depending on the finish you're after.

  • Dry Hair: Maximum texture, volume, and hold.
  • Lightly Damp Hair: Slightly smoother application and a more controlled finish.

Avoid applying to soaking wet hair, as excess moisture will reduce texture and overall performance.

Step 2: Scoop and Emulsify

Use a small fingertip-sized scoop to start. Matte Paste is concentrated, and a little goes a long way.

Rub the product thoroughly between your palms until it becomes evenly distributed across your hands.

Step 3: Apply Evenly

Work the product from the back of your head toward the front, making sure to coat the hair evenly from roots to ends.

This approach helps build texture throughout the hairstyle while preventing excess product from accumulating in the front.

Step 4: Style Your Hair

Use your fingers for maximum texture and separation or a comb for a cleaner, more structured look.

Because Matte Paste maintains flexibility throughout the day, you can easily reshape and adjust your style as needed.

Pro Tips

For More Texture

Apply to completely dry hair and finish styling with your fingers rather than a comb.

For More Volume

Blow dry your hair into shape before applying product to create lift and structure.

For Thick Hair

Work the product deep into the hair, not just across the surface, to ensure even hold and control.

For a Natural Finish

Start with a small amount and gradually add more if needed. This helps maintain a lightweight feel and matte appearance.

Why People Love Matte Paste

Matte Paste combines strong hold, natural texture, and a true matte finish in a versatile formula that works for a wide range of hairstyles. It provides the control needed for structured looks while maintaining the flexibility required for more relaxed styles. For those who prefer volume, texture, and a natural appearance over shine, Matte Paste has become a go-to styling product.
