Description
Whether you have super short hair or waist-length waves, this pomade will give your hair perfect definition. It's amazing for adding texture and separation, taming flyaways or giving air-dried hair a little boost.
How to:
1. Once your hair is air dried or heat styled, scoop out a pea-sized amount of pomade and warm it up between your palms.
2. I like to work this in from middle to ends first, which gives the hair great separation and texture.
3. Take whatever is left on your hands and massage it into the root for additional texture and volume.
Tip: This pomade is water-based so it rinses clean when you shampoo.
Cruelty free | color + keratin safe | vegan
Free of added fragrance, sulfates, parabens, phthalates, silicones + gluten

I have wavy/curly frizzy hair. The texturizing paste keeps definition and allows the right amount of body. Works well in humid climates.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was definitely my most used out of all the products I received. I really liked that it was scentless and used it on days that I wanted a little more texture in my hair or wanted the texture to hold a little better. I don’t think that the results lasted very long, but regardless, I really enjoyed used this product. It was easily dispensed and small enough to bring on the go when necessary.
little goes a long way!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This package comes with a lot of product and you really don’t need that much. The scent is light and pleasant in my opinion. I have wavy hair and this makes it pop, it just takes a bit of the healthy feeling out of my hair which isn’t my favorite feeling.
didn’t do much for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied this in my hair after I curled to try and give the curls a bit more texture . I didn’t notice too much of a difference and it maybe weighed down my hair a bit . It’s fragrance free but there is a bit of a smell to it , I think I would prefer it with a touch of fragrance .
great!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This texturizing paste is great! I love how easy it is to use it. It comes in a tube form, so all you have to do is squeeze out the perfect amount of product. I love using it on second day air dried hair and it gives me the perfect amount of volume and hold. It also helps with flyaways. A little goes a long way and it’s great how affordable it is!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not a fan of this product. I've used it a handful of times and have been disappointed every time. It is supposed to give texture but every time I use it it actually takes away any texture that I already had. For example: I curled my hair and then tried adding this to give the curls more texture and the product was so wet and heavy that it made my curls fall flat and straight, even when I only used a tiny amount of product. I don't have that problem with other texturizing creams that I own. This product is a pass for me, I preferred the Kristen Ess Pomade over this product (it does basically the same thing without ruining the curls).
Didnt know I needed!

I bought this on a whim one day with zero expectations and it has suddenly become my most used hair product for my particular routine. 95% of the time, I wash my hair at night and go to bed with it wet. My hair is rather thick and has some texture to it, but isn't curly and on a good day may have some wave. I use this in the mornings to give my wayward hair some direction, enhance texture and add much needed volume at the roots. If my hair is particularly crazy when I wake up, I will use this and use a curling wand on a few pieces but it really helps get that beachy/ messy on purpose look. I also REALLY love that it doesnt have any silicones in it bc I avoid using those in my hair at all costs. While it does sort of smell like glue, the smell is not overpowering and goes away fast. I would 100% take that over heavily perfumed prodcuts that give me a headache and are full of fake chemicals. You only need the smallest amount, experiment with it, but the tube has lasted me almost a year already and I use it multiple times a week!
Not for my hair type

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this isn’t the product for me, but I have stick straight, waist length hair so I figured this product wouldn’t do too much for me because my hair does not stay curled. It tamed my baby hairs which was nice but otherwise I don’t think I’ll use this again. But I can see it adding really great definition for those who have curly hair!
Great for flyaways!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this on my hair after blow-drying. It helped tame my baby/flyaway hairs. I also ran a small amount through the ends of my hair just to smooth it and make it shiny. Would definitely recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great for you’re little flyaways and adds just the right amount of texture to almost any hairstyle. Not a bad product at all. There’s not anything I can think of to make it better to be honest. I’d recommend it to others and plan to purchase it in the future myself.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was also really surprised with this product. It actually gave some definition to my curls which makes me very happy because I love my curls! It also makes the texture very smooth and soft as well! It’s not something I would use everyday, however I use it when I have a special occasion where I want my hair to stay curly and stay in place for the occasion! Overall, I’m very impressed by this product and I’ll use it more often!
it works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is another good product for curly hair. I liked how it kept my curl and still soft but it held. The smell wasn’t all that great though
Does the job!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this product because it keeps your hairstyle in place. I actually used this on my son, he has a short hair style and it worked very well keeping his hair styled for the whole day for school picture day. It lasted even with him playing out with his friends. I also used it after I styled my hair up in a pony tale and it kept all my baby hairs in place! Works great and does leave a Matte look not shiny.
Gives definition!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I normally do not use texturizing products and decided to use this on my hair after being curled. It gave my curls so much definition without a sticky look and I loved it! My curls lasted longer even after dancing at a wedding all night long. It isn’t oily and love that it does not leave yucky buildup.
it’s okay!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was decent! It helped give me hair a little boost and was helpful for ponies or buns to tame the baby hairs. Not much a scent but wasn’t a bad scent as well. I would consider purchasing this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A little bit goes a long way at least for me. I have short hair so I use it to keep my hair in place. It can become oily if you use to much
holds style well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product complimentary from Influenster and the brand in exchange for my honest review. I don’t usually use these types of styling products on my hair so I was excited to try these pomades I can’t compare them to any thing else because I never used anything else. So I like that this paste easily washed out of my hair and did smooth my hair as well as tamed flyaways without any kind of fragrance. My hair is straight and thick and pretty heavy so this did hold up nicely. #voxbox #influenster
