Description
Bed Head’s Manipulator texturizing Putty; new on the outside and just as epic on the inside. A powerful strong hold formulation, not only designed with, but used by salon professionals. Delivering salon results and salon experience at home.
Manipulator Paste is Bed Head's iconic hair styling product! This hair styling putty adds definition, body and texture to hair and provides style control. The putty helps to defend hairstyles from frizz and humidity. It has a strong, flexible hold. For incredible texture and style!
Great for styling short to medium hair lengths! Work a small amount through clean, wet hair for a natural finish. Use hands to scrunch, twist or spike into shape. Let your hair air dry or gently blast to dry in for firmer hold. Top tip: a little Manipulator goes a long way, so be careful not to overdose on it. Start with a small amount at first and only apply more if needed.
Formulated with ozokerite that builds texture between hair fibres for style control, flexible hold, definition and thicker-looking hair, Propylene Glycol that absorbs and retains moisture from the surroundings to help defend hairstyles against frizz and humidity, and Styling-Boosting Polymers that act like 'style scaffolding' for an even application and flexible hold.
This professional hair product is 2.01 oz and comes with a Tropical Fruit fragrance!

Q: What is the difference between the Manipulator Matte and the Manipulator Putty?
submitted by Patricia - 5 years ago
A: Our Manipulator Matte has a waxy texture that has a strong hold and a matte finish that will not leave an artificial shine! Our Manipulator Putty builds texture between individual fibers leaving the final result with a natural finish - this product has a firm hold. It just depends on what finish you are looking for, if you are looking for a molded style with a matte finish then go with Manipulator Matte. If you are looking for definition and body with natural style control, then go with Manipulator Putty!

Q: Is this a 10.56oz (.66 lb) size cntainer?
submitted by Rod mom - 8 years ago
A: NO! It should be based on the listing title but they are actually shipping out 2oz containers when you pay for the 10.5 oz. I just received my second 2oz container after buying this.
The Bed Head Manipulator is a versatile hair styling product that offers excellent hold without the stiffness or greasiness often associated with similar products. Guests appreciate its pleasant scent and the way it enhances texture, making it suitable for various hair types, including fine and curly hair. Many have found it effective for everyday use, providing a natural look while keeping styles intact throughout the day. Its easy application and washout further add to its appeal.

Quality product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality product you can always count on from bed head. Holds down hair with no residue or flakiness left in your hair. Used in my toddlers thin hair bad it worked great. Kept hair in place and washed out easily

This has been my favorite for years.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all, the smell of this stuff is absolutely amazing. My favorite of ANY hairproduct, ever! This Bed Head Manipulator is the best for spiking hair or just giving it a little extra flare. I use this on all three of my sons when they need their hair to look "done". Even with curly hair this product leaves it looking nice. For me, I love it for the tips of my hair, it makes them looks even and when I feel a little wild I can create hair styles that have an edgy yet up to date look.

Works great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best hair gels/putty that we have used. My husband and I both use it. He likes to make spikes especially when we are outdoors so as to keep his hair in place and I love styling my medium length hair into long curls. The gel is great and keep hair in place beautifully. There is no built up the next day which is really important for me. I will highly recommend it.

Easy to use and long lasting
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been enjoying using this to style my hair easily in the mornings. Sometimes my bangs end up looking weird if I sleep on them wrong, but this is easy to apply and quickly gets my hair looking the way I want it to look. It lasts for the whole day if I'm inside most of the day or a few hours if I am outside in the Florida heat. It also doesn't make my hair look greasy either, which is awesome. I would highly recommend it!

Great hold but the humidity is a factor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great hold but the humidity is a factor in southern Florida. Upon first application it does hold very well and smells amazing. But as the day progresses the humidity wins! This product would work great with another product that is stronger against the Florida humidity.

Great styling product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son really likes the Bed Head Manipulator paste hair styling product. the Styling paste is not greasy and easy to apply and smooth on the hair. The scent is also good. The products gives the hair a little bit of texture to work with, to make it easier to style; and gives the hair a healthy shine.

Must have!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My morning routine isn't complete without Bed Head Manipulator. First a little goes a long way! I just put a tiny amount from the lid onto my finger tips and mainupalte it thru my hair. I use it to help flip my hair out and then run over it with my styling products. My son also uses it to help his hair stand up too!! The smell is subtle but nice! It is nice to know my hair isn't crunchy like other products can make it. I still feel like I can run my fingers thru my hair. It is a little sticky on your hands, but when done using it washes off easily. This is seriously the best product ever!

Good Product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you use a hair straightener or curler often, you should try this product from Bed Head. It protects your hair from heat damage while moisturizing and calming frizz. Hair feels soft and smooth afterwards.

Nice hair!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed something for my toddlers unruly hair that wouldn’t leave his hair crusty but still provide some hold. This works pretty well, it did leave a little bit of a stiff feeling in his hair and It does wear off after just a couple hours but his hair still stays pretty styled even after it’s left his hair.

Salon quality!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product is thick so a little goes a long way, so be careful and don’t put too much. It keeps my hair well styled all day. I have very fine hair but this product gives both texture and volume to my hair. This is a salon quality product. My hair turns out better when I apply the product to damp hair and looks greasy when applied to dry hair.

Nice!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My girls and I tried the BED HEAD MANIPULATOR NON AEROSOL GLO . This manipulator is a great product. Just running a little through our hair helps keep the fly away hairs to a bare minimum. it's great for when we are out side and want our hair to stay put. The BED HEAD MANIPULATOR NON AEROSOL GLO is also great for laying down edges and creating cute curls!

Nice product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this for almost a month now. And I have to say I really like it! I use to use gel and hairspray but this does just the job. I’ve never used this stuff people but will continue to use it. I’d definitely recommend the manipulator by bed head to others!

Nice for boys
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this on my toddler's unruly hair to help give it a little bit of style and it worked great. His hair stayed nice for a few hours but he plays a lot and so it didn't hold all day. It didn't leave any weird residue on his hair either which was nice.
