FirsthandSupply Clay Pomade - Clean & Non-toxic Hair Care Ingredients - Long Lasting & Easy to Restyle - 3oz (88ml)

4.5/5 for the red jar texturizing clay!tldr: good for long shag cuts, fluffy hold and able to touch up throughout the day, earthy clay smellI have a long wolf/shag cut and naturally straight asian hair, wanted something to give it texture without having to bother with heat styling every morning. This product does great! I use basically a pea size amount and rub between my fingers and then scrunch around the ends of each layer and kinda twist rub the ends with my fingertips to style. Process takes maybe a minute compared to having to use a flat iron for 5+ minutes. The hold is great and it doesn't look greasy or clumpy, looks nice and fluffy. It softens throughout the day while still giving slight hold and texture. The best part is how easy it is to restyle later in the day, all I do is repeat the same scrunching and rubbing.Minus half a star because the scent is quite earthy and strong at the start. Not overwhelmingly so or to the point where it bothers your nose but you can smell the clay. It also fades throughout the day, but is still a little bit present. I just got this recently so I haven't been able to test to see if the clay is able to hold perfume to make perfume last longer tho, if so that would be a great bonus. I'll update on that later.Overall would recommend! It does seem comparatively pricey but the ingredients are all natural, the packaging is done with so much care, and I love their sustainability mindset! Plus, I think this product will last a long time since you only need so little (and I'm using it on long hair too).update: the smell fades fairly quickly and is easily overtaken by any perfume. I feel like it does help with perfume longevity when i spray onto my hair and I personally like the light lavender herby scent of the clay! Hasn’t separated or gotten weird, if anything the clay has adjusted to room temp and softened slightly in the jar so its easier to work with than when I first got it! Honestly highly recommend!

Best hair product I’ve ever used for fine, short hair. Textured, not greasy. Just right. Great smell and washed out easily while maintaining a strong hold.Expensive but worth it.

I’ve been trying to find a non toxic, clean hair pomade for my son for a year and finally found it! My son has thick, super straight hair and all products I’ve tried just makes his hair lay flat and look oily. Look at that spike! I used a dime size, warmed in palms and evenly distributed throughout. The texture is thick and creamy, It’s easy to use and easy to wash out of hands. For the amount that you need to use, I believe it worth the money. The real test will be when he gets home from school as he sweats a lot especially with this hot weather- triple digits. I’ll update soon to see if it held up all day.UPDATE: November 2024Still love this pomade and it holds all day! What I love about it, is that it does not look greasy. It also smells really nice, not to overpowering. Buy it! It’s worth it. I also use it on my younger son and daughter to fix those fly aways.😁

I really wished I could of given this product a full five stars since its excellent at what it does. Which is to give a great hold with a texturing twist.I'm going to be completely honest, I don't think i've ever used a product in its category that is this unique. When applying to my hair it is the only product that is strong enough to give me a slick back which is a first for me since most products that I have tried are a just a little weaker by comparison. I know that this product isn't really intended for slick back but just wanted to throw that out there since it is special to me in that regard.Where this product shines through perfectly for me is in the beachy wave look that gives me. I have curly hair that, when paired with this product gives me a surfer/bedahead style that looks great while totally not being overdone, which is what I feel more people are leaning towards for anyways when styling. I am simply astonished at how good its able to just give me that same volumous texture that sea salt spray provides without actually using any!Now for the only complaint I have against this paste. The scent. Good god, the scent of this paste is just so overwhelming and just plain offensive. I have gotten so many remarks from others saying if I doused myself in axe body spray because of just how annoyingly strong this scent is. This stuff even attracts flies and other insects because of how strong and floral it is!If Firsthand Supply were to simply just remove the scent or just tone it down this product would be a 10/10 I will resume my hunt for a product that is similar to this but hopefully without such a unpleasant scent.

Great hold, washes out clean. That’s it. That’s what I was looking for in the pomade and it delivers. I’ve tried several clay ones and they all work well, but need two shampoos to wash clean. The hold is fantastic and lasts all day. Sometimes even the next morning, I can run a comb through and it’s still holding. Zero regrets with this purchase.

This product hold hair in place really well. It is not greasy but you do have to work it in your hands and into the hair well so that it isn’t visible. I love the scent but unfortunately my son (who I bought this for) really doesn’t like it. It’s pretty strong and so we haven’t been able to use it frequently bc he fights me when I try and use it due to the scent. Probably best for an adult.

Highly recommended. The ingredients, the feel, smell, and performance are exceptional. I’ve tried many pomades but this is the one that thumped it all. It’s such a pleasure to use and my hair instantly looks healthier and luxurious. Definitely a must buy.

Best product on the market for hair styling
