Don Juan Meteor Clay Pomade | Water Based | Strong Hold | Matte Finish | Citrus Lavender Scent, 4 oz.

This is the best wax to my thin straight hair. I've been using this for 2.5 years and will use it for 2 more years (bought into storage).

It's the Arnold Schwarzenegger of hair products. But, instead of pinning a man to a tree with a knife, it just pins your hair to your head. And holy cannoli does it hold that hair. It holds your hair up through anything. Three-a-days? No problem. 10 mile hikes? It's still holding. Meteor hits the earth and destroys all living creatures? You die knowing aliens will find your remains with flawless hair.The absolute best hold of any product I've used. I put it in every morning and it lasts the whole day and through both my daily workouts. I have light, thin hair, and it's always been a problem for me to style my hair. This is the first product that works. It's also the only product I've used that holds my hair even when I where a hat. The only weakness I've found is torrential downpour. Don Juan reigns immortal.

I decided to give this pomade a try after I ran out of the pomade I usually use and was looking to try something new. I've used it just about everyday for about 3 weeks now and I can honestly say I do not like this pomade/clay one bit. This product is thick and dries very fast. So fast to the point where you have to style your hair immediately. It becomes a bit unworkable within a few mins and the only way I found to keep it workable for longer than a min or two, is to have my hair wet or damp first. BUT that defeats the whole point of a MATTE pomade/clay as it will add shine to your hair. I prefer not to have shine in my hair, hence why I buy matte pomades. The next problem I found was it flakes up extremely bad. Again, it dries/sets so fast, it will start to flake up on me as I am still styling it and it will get even worse as the day goes on. I am not a person who is constantly touching or messing with my hair, I style it in the morning and leave it all day but I find that it continues to flake up even without being touched. My shoulders are covered in flakes and it looks like I have extremely bad dandruff. And no I do not have dandruff/dry scalp. The only time I have flakes is when I use this product. Lastly, this product does not have a lasting hold. You would think with how fast and firm it sets within minutes that it would have a lasting hold, but thats not the case. I find that it loses 60-70% of its hold within 4-5 hours. After just a few hours, the pomade loses most of its hold and my hair starts to fall flat. This pomade sets too fast, it's unmanageable, It flakes, and it can't keep its hold for more than a few hours. This product just does not work for me.

I have tried so many different clay pomades it's getting ridiculous. I have a hard time finding the right texture I like with the hold and matte finish. This fits the bill really well. Although not perfect, it does give me everything I am looking for. As the title says, it dries quick, so you better be ready to get your hair in place. Other than that, the hold is strong, it lasts all day and the finish is matte. I like that it is not greasy and that you can set your hair and then not have to worry about it all day. It comes in a large size which will last me at least 2 months if not longer. Well worth what I paid.

I've got straight, thin, sometimes dry hair that I like to give some volume, style and keep off my forehead. I used to use wax sticks and other products, but they often fail in higher temperatures or tough conditions.Meteor Clay is much better than others I've tried with a pleasant mild scent, and great workable texture. It also doesn't dry out in the tub as much as some brands and is going to be my goto now. I've previously tried Smooth Viking(too stinky, oily, just bad), Aveda pure-formance(too expensive, but amazing), and Bed Head Matte Seperation(great, and was my goto for years) this is better(better hold and texture IMHO).I do find it works best on slightly dried hair, when your hair is wet it doesn't go on very well. A good towel dry for me and it goes on pretty good. 10 minutes after a towel dry it goes on great.
