Clay Pomade
Frequently Asked Questions
The product is 2 oz instead of 4 oz, what's up with that?
Two reasons:
1. This product should be used sparingly in the hair to achieve the best results. Using too much at one time in the hair, will not yield weightless flow and control. If used as intended, this 2 oz jar will last just as long as a 4 oz jar.
2. Macadamia Nut Oil is expensive. Per ounce, this is one of the most expensive products we've ever produced. Macadamia Nut Oil is a great hydrating oil that increases hair and scalp appearance. This gives our Clay Pomade a light and natural shine with flow and control
Is Clay Pomade water-based?
Not exactly. Clay Pomade is essentially an anhydrous hair styling product, meaning there is little to no water in the final mix. The primary "base" of this product is beeswax, bentonite clay, & kaolin clay, with the water concentration being low. It is what is typically called a "Hybrid Pomade." A Hybrid Pomade styles smooth, flowy and weightless like an oil-based pomade but washes out way easier like a water-based pomade because of the added water.
Should Clay Pomade be applied to wet or dry hair?
The Clay Pomade will yield the best results when applied to dry hair. For a little more shine and a neater look, it can be applied to lightly damp hair.
Applying Clay Pomade to wet hair is like putting ketchup in your ice cream. It doesn't work and you should never do it. This product is anhydrous, oil and water don't play well together. You will have a heck of a time spreading this product into your hair and then you will probably email me to complain. I warned you. Don't do it.
What's the difference between Clay Pomade & Matte Paste
The Matte Paste features a dry and matte finish that is best for choppy, messy and textured looks. The Clay Pomade features a light and natural shine that is best for weightless flow and control.
Great product. I'm a repeat buyer of the Clay Pomade. Like all pomade's, there is a learning curve to making it work for your hair. Solid hold and workability, without a lot of (or any) shine. I love that it is water based and washes out easily. Bonus points that the product doesn't have any significant scent.
Hey John, right on! And I agree with you, it does have a learning curve, but a big pay off if you dedicate the time to it. Now I just gotta figure out a way to market that properly because I've been doing a poor job at it. :-).
An excellent styling product! Smells great, adds polish without adding shine. It is thicker and dryer than I think most people expect. But a lil scoop worked into your palms loosens up fast and makes you look great. Buy 4 of them, coward
right on, thanks for the awesome review! :-)
Leaves the hair feeling nice and smooth, good hold for straight hair.
Right on, glad you enjoyed the Clay!
This is a good clay, holding well, but is a bit hard to emulsify to put on the hair. It wasn’t flaky and didn’t lose the hold. Scent is pleasant and the size of the container is adequate. It’s more like a straight-up clay than pomade. It would be perfect for a spike.
If you're like me and have thick stubborn hair, you know how difficult it is to manage and keep from looking like a porcupine. This hair clay works great. I warm up the product in the palms of my hand, then work into damp hair. Then I style my hair, and it holds all day with ease. My hair still feels nice, you can tell there's product in it but it isn't super greasy or crunchy feeling. The balm smells quite nice, a subtle fruity scent that doesn't linger.
🏎️ Quick Rec: This clay pomade is a decent option for those seeking a strong hold with a matte finish.✅ Pros ✅- Provides a strong and flexible hold.- Offers a natural, low-shine matte finish.- Has a fruity scent.- A little goes a long way.❌ Cons ❌- Can be difficult to scoop out of the container.- May be challenging to spread evenly in hands without added moisture.
Nice, lightweight feeling pomade. It has a strong but flexible hold. A nice natural looking shine. Great scent. It actually feels moisturizing on your hair.
