Hair Clay, Pomade, Wax, Gel or Paste? Which is Right for Me?

Hair clay is a clay-like matte styling product that can create a very natural look. It looks a bit like mashed potatoes, and its ingredient is usually bentonite. Bentonite is made from natural volcanic ash. This fine powdery "soil" has a good velvety feel and will expand when exposed to water, up to 6 times. . Therefore, hair mud can absorb dirt and oil from the hair, making it very suitable for people with oily hair.

Hair caly will only make the hair stronger and will not change the original texture. Hair clay has strong shaping ability and can be regarded as a product with many functions. When used on wet hair, it can maintain a handsome style for a long time, and can also visually increase hair volume; when used on dry hair, it can create messy yet textured styles, such as the popular hedgehog hair, punk hair, etc. Most of the hairstyles are muddy styles.

Hair wax is a semi-solid paste-like hair styling product that is a mixture of oil, fat and wax. According to the source of raw materials and product appearance, hair wax can be divided into three types: vegetable hair wax, mineral hair wax and water-soluble hair wax.

Plant-based hair wax has moderate viscosity and good ductility; mineral hair wax has a long-lasting fragrance and high viscosity, and can also make the hair have a certain shine; water-soluble hair wax has a non-stick feeling, smooth hair, and good hair care effect. Maintains hair's natural shine. You can choose different hair waxes according to actual needs.

The biggest feature of hair pomade is that it is a styling product rich in oil. It has good nourishing properties and makes your hair look shiny after use.

There are two types of hair pomade: water-based and oil-based.

Water-based hair oil dries and hardens quickly to achieve styling, and its styling ability is more durable than hair wax and hair mud. Its ingredients are not as simple as oil-based hair oils. The hairstyle it creates is much fluffier, easier to clean, and reduces the risk of acne.

Oil-based hair pomade is not easily decomposed by water, has stronger styling ability, is waterproof and sweat-resistant... Therefore, if you exercise frequently or like to sweat, you can choose oil-based hair pomade, and you can repeatedly style your hair after wet it. Oil-based hair pomade is set through viscosity, has relatively high brightness and good moisturizing effect.
