5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite hair product!

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I'll be honest, I didn't like this stuff at first. I've come to love it.I am 46 (Jesus…where does the time go?) and have medium short length hair; still have hair but just slightly thinner than in my youth. I typically wear it messy. Just hop out of the shower and hit it with the blow dryer for a minute to give it a bit more volume (hey, I said I was thinning!) and then put some goop in my hair - that is probably leading to my thinning!This stuff is all natural so no worries about putting some chemicals in your hair you can't pronounce and would probably kill a coked up gorilla fighting 100 dudes. Plus, it's made in the USA! Can't go wrong here! I didn't like it at first because I was so used to the chemical laden goop giving my hair ungodly amounts of holding power. Never mind it made my hair look crunchy and more than a bit sticky throughout the day. Not this stuff. In the can the gray clay looks hard as a rock. And it sort of is, until the heat from your fingers and palms does the trick and softens up in seconds making it super easy to work this stuff through your hair. The end result is a low shine medium hold that looks natural and can be reactivated through the day by running damp fingers through your hair. I ride motorcycle and this trick works great after wearing a helmet for hours too! Super functional that it lasts all day!I think I found my new go-to hair product for as long as I wear my hair this short. I read some other reviewers who were female and they loved the product too, so there's that. You don't get a lot of product but a little dab in your palm goes a long way.After using this for about a month, I can't recommend this more highly to you.

5.0 out of 5 stars The last styling product you'll ever try.

This came on my radar from an IG ad. I hoped it would be the type of product I was looking for, though I had tempered expectations. They completely exceeded them. I have mid-length hair and wanted something that made the wavy, messy, look of not washing your hair for a few days and this absolutely accomplishes that.True to their word, just a good size lump is all you need to get control of longer hair. A little more may be needed depending on length but I am very impressed by how little is needed to get what you need. I bought my first tin 6 weeks ago and still have about half left, styling my hair every 3 days or so after a wash. The nice thing is it doesn't build up in the hair but rather, sort of absorbs into the hair. So in between washes, a little spritz from a water spray bottle, lets you sort of restyle the hair, and by doing so, refreshes and sort of bumps up the volume.I can literally say if this company said they were shutting down I would be in a mad dash to get as much as I could to have as long as possible. Definitely stop shopping for the cheap option that's "pretty good" and just get the "great" product that's reasonably priced. For what you get, this is a steal, you'll be very happy with the results of your style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Balance of Hold and Natural Look!

What I love most is how invisible it is once it's in. It gives my hair just the right amount of hold to stay in place all day, but it still looks and feels like my hair. There’s no greasy shine or crunchy texture, and best of all, it doesn’t feel like I’ve got product in my hair at all. You get structure and control, without that obvious product look. In addition to not having a goopy feel, it smells great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely try this hair product!

As someone committed to using only cruelty-free and completely natural hair products, finding something that actually performs well has been a real challenge, until now. Highland Glacial Clay Pomade strikes the perfect balance with its clean ingredient profile and outstanding styling capability. The hold lasts all day without making my hair feel stiff or crunchy, and I love that it's actually nourishing my hair rather than damaging it like so many conventional products. The texture is smooth and easy to work with, the natural fragrance is wonderfully understated, and the value is excellent since you need so little per application. Finally found a styling product that aligns with my principles AND delivers professional results; couldn't be happier with this purchase!

3.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to work with, but nice natural look.

I wish I loved this more.The cons: It’s pretty difficult to work with (let alone scoop it out of the canister). Even with damp hair, it’s extremely thick and sticky, and you really have to pull hard to evenly spread it around. The workability is far inferior to a petroleum-based product like Cremo or American Crew. It’s almost like the consistency of tree sap if you’re familiar.The pros: Once you manage to get it to a place you like, it has a wonderful matte texture and a loose hold, which gives a much more casual, natural look compared to other products. It also smells fantastic. Very evergreen-forward which I enjoy.Overall, this isn’t a daily product for me just because it’s so hard to work with, but on the weekends when I have extra time to mess around, or if I don’t mind the look slowly getting messy throughout the day, this is a great option! Solid 3-stars.
