I'm a woman with short hair and I love this product! I rub a quarter sized amount between my hands and then vigorously rub it into my hair. It gives me a perfectly imperfect messy look. It doesn't get oily looking and it doesn't go limp even in the summer heat!

I was looking for an alternative solution to using hair gel so I purchased Old Spice Pomade and TIGI Bed Head in July 2016. I have Asian hair with a comb-over style cut, so I needed hair product that can give me a good hold, matte finish and doesn't flake. The Old Spice pomade didn't really do it for me as it wouldn't keep my hair in shape through out the day, then I switched to TIGI Bed Head - I've been using it almost every day until now and I'm just purchasing my second tub. TIGI Wax hits all the check-boxes for my needs:

> Matte finish
> No flakes
> Holds through out the day, even holds during my workout sessions at the gym + running
> Washes away easily after a shower + shampoo

All it takes is a pinch of this stuff, rub your hands together with a little bit of water to get a nice lather going, then with your hair wet run your hands through and comb/style as necessary! Added some pictures for you guys out there to see what it looks like after my process. I definitely recommend wetting your hair a little bit before applying, especially if you're going for a sleek, matte finished look! Never going back to hair gel or pomade, this stuff is the real deal!

I haven't used product in my hair since the Aqua Net days of the '80s. Back then, hair product for men consisted of gel, mousse, or hair spray. They all had one thing in common. They provided hold by making hair stick together, and the result was that it was very difficult to style.

This stuff has one large advantage. It actually coats each individual hair to make it manageable. While I find it to be somewhat messy, I am constantly amazed at how my hair does exactly what I want it to when I use it. It takes some getting used to, though, simply because I'm not used to having my hair behave exactly how I want.

My interpretation of this product is that it is for styling and not necessary for hold. I use it in conjunction with hair spray to get my desired effect.

I have found that when I want a lot of body, which is my normal shtick, applying when my hair is wet and then using a blow dryer produces outstanding results. I start with a very small amount (too little is better than too much), and work my hair back. Then, I comb forward as I'm blow drying, and I style once my hair is dry. If I want my hair to lie flat, like if I'm going to a formal event, I will apply when my hair is wet and then comb forward/style without using the blow dryer.

I recommend giving this product more than one try. My first couple of applications were just plain wrong. I put way too much in the first time and needed to rewash my hair immediately. I still put too much in the second time, but on try number three, I think I had the amount down. It still took a couple of more applications to really master doing what I wanted to do to my hair, but after using it for a few weeks, I feel like an old pro. It takes longer for me to take out the blow dryer and plug it in than it actually takes me to style my hair, and that is a win.

Too sticky....like glue. Like rubbery on hands and then in hair is is near impossible to work thru hair because of the rubbery/thick/sticky like consistency. I have used other products and was just trying this out for fun....I didn't have any fun and threw the jar out after using it twice. Stay away as there are other matte clays a thousand times better than this garbage.

The smell is unoffensive and fades quickly enough, so I don't have any complaints on that front. I do however, have a problem with the level of shine, as well as the level of hold.

This is advertised as having a "matte" finish, meaning no shine, but after using it my hair looks super slick and shiny, and has that artificial metrosexual look that I very much dislike. The level of shine is dependent on both on how much product one uses, as well as on how wet one's hair is when the product is applied -- The more product one uses, and the wetter the hair, the shinier it will look. Needless to say, I try to apply the product only to dry hair, but that isn't enough to significantly reduce the shine, thanks to the amount of product I have to use, which leads into my second complaint.

This product provides very little hold for me. In order to get any meaningful hold out of it, I have to apply enough to ensure a super shiny, greasy look. Even then, the hold is far from strong enough, and I constantly have to run my hands through my hair to move it back into place. Unfortunately, while there is some flexibility to reshape the hair in this way, the constant manipulation does reduce the level of hold, so I end the day with my hair acting almost as if I hadn't used this product at all.

I also rather dislike the waxy feel of my hair after using this stuff, but that's a secondary concern.

I'm definitely not impressed. I suppose I'll probably finish this tin of wax eventually, using it sparingly on days when I'm going to be wearing a hat most of the time anyway, but I don't see myself buying it again unless I truly can't find anything better (this stuff is the first hair product I've ever used).

It's been three years I'm using this product almost daily , I've read the comments here where users have explained it greasy and having less hold , it's just because the application of this product differs from others .
1. It works best on medium hair length , first shampoo your hair , then towel dry them ! You have to use a blow dry to make a style , blow dryers gives your hair shine and easy to settle down your hair at desired place !
2. After styling your hair , take the desired amount of wax in your wax and rub it till it gets transparent!
3. Apply it on your hair evenly ( 90% of us , we start from the front and it gets stuck in the front hair only )
4. Use a comb or your fingers gently to get the style again , after applying the wax !
Here you go , it will last till you want it to

Following are the points to make it look good and long lasting
1. Wash your hair daily
2. Don't burn your hair using blow dryer
3. Get a pre styling serum before blow drying
4. Don't touch your hair after you have styled it
5. No wax works in humidity

I know you can get much cheaper hair product. But this goes so so far!

Also depending on how it is applied and how much, the effect can vary, in a predictable controlled way.

Smells cool too!

P.s I know, I know, I know... the red Ray Bans
But just like Tigi Bed Head, I love em
