Why we rate it

A matte wax for lived-in, piecey texture. It's mouldable and pliable, with a long-lasting hold, and it adds separation without weighing hair down, which makes it a good match for short, textured cuts and messy styles. Warm a small amount between your fingertips first, then work it into dry hair, focusing on the ends and the pieces you want to define. Start small and add more only if you need it.

Stylist’s tip

Warm a small amount between your palms until it’s almost invisible before working it through. It spreads more evenly that way, and you can always add a little more where you need it.
