Why we rate it

If you like a matte, lived-in finish, this is the Tea Tree styler for you. It's a putty-like cream with a pliable hold, so you can pinch, twist and separate the ends of short and choppy cuts without the shine of a wax. Rub a small amount between your fingertips first so it spreads evenly, then work it into damp or dry hair. Crew cuts, textured crops and shags all suit it. For more shine and a sleeker line, try the Tea Tree Grooming Pomade instead.

  • Pliable, putty-like hold that stays workable
  • Matte finish with no shine
  • Defines and separates for piecey texture
  • Suits crew cuts, choppy crops and shags

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.
