MITCH by Paul Mitchell Matterial Finishing Clay for Men, High Hold, Ultra-Matte Finish, For All Hair Types, 3 oz.

I have tried Highland Glacial, Pete & Pedro Hair Putty, Dapper Dan, Hair Dough, Baxter Clay Pomade, STMNT Matte Paste, Aveda Grooming Clay, all the Hanze De Fuko products, among others. They all either leave my hair a bit too greasy looking (Not Matte), are a bit too heavy, or have a scent that is overpowering. SO FAR, MITCH Finishing Clay has the best hold, a matte finish, and minimal buildup. I have thinner hair (not thinning hair, lol), but it's fine and of medium length. The only thing i will say it it sets very quickly. I use this on dry hair, a little goes a long way. I find myself using a dime or half dime size amount and working through hair....letting it set, then going through a 2nd time after it sets to create a bit more texture. It feels light out of the tin, but once you emulsify it in your hands, it really stiffens up, so you have to work pretty fast. But with all that being said, if you are looking for something that is not too heavy but also has maximum hold with a natural matte finish while providing volume and texture for finer hair, this would be the product. If you subscribe and save, the price isn't that bad.

Brief: Great product, the most matte product I've ever found and incredibly strong hold once it dries (20-30 seconds after spreading across your hands)I care about my hair more than I should. A bad hair day means I'm putting on a hat and calling it good. Paul Mitchell's lineup is the only product I have used for 6 or 7 years now. I use the clean cut as my primary because I like that it stays maliable and has nice texture. It's a great option when my hair is freshly cut. After 2-3 weeks is starts to look overgrown and if I use the clean cut it can sometimes seems greasy. This is when I switch to this particular variation. It's very moist when you apply it to your hands, then starts to dry rapidly after about 20-30 seconds. Long enough to apply it without it being hard to spread, but you have to know how you're styling it once it's in.It's not gel-like stiffness at all, it's almost like my hair would be after a game when I was a catcher in baseball. I know this is a niche group that will understand but there is a dryness and clay-esque feeling about your hair when the dust/dirt/sweat mixes under the helmet. It doesn't give much if a textured look but for a somebody that runs a 2 or 3 guard on the side on a fresh cut and goes 3-4 weeks between appointments it's a nice way to keep a clean look for the last week or so before your next cut.

I bought this product with "Finishing Clay" 18 months ago when it had a dark-red cover. I liked it because it had a strong hold, matte finish, and was easy to wash out. It was good, but not perfect. It was a bit heavy, and had a slight shine, so I kept trying other brands. However, now it has a green cover and I suspect they changed the formulation a bit because it now holds a lot better than the older product did and is more matte. I like it more.

So I’ve used this product for over a year now, would normal buy it at my local Sportclips... here’s what I’ve learned..PROs- Won’t come out.-Even after exposed to water it’ll still harden up in your hair (obviously not after shower)- Doesn't get all oily when exposed to heat- Doesn’t give you dry head- don’t need a lotCONS- Very strong, and hardens fast, so best to use it while your hair is a little damp so you can spread it all around easier.- Restyling isn’t possible unless you fully wash it out and start over.It’s overall very well... I have a very naturally straight hair growth pattern and not much of anything has ever worked for me, but this... this works very good... haven’t really found anything better

I have been using the Mitch Material for over 4 years now. It works great, holds amazing and smells even better. No matter what you are doing in the day your hair will be held all day and all night if needed. Do not worry about having to reapply for having your hair messed up. It is an easy to use product, a little goes a long way so it also last forever. I have bought it multiple times and I love it.

I've used multiple types of gel, pomade, clay, etc. for hair styling and for the longest time never really liked any of them that much and ended up sticking with American Crew. I found about this brand from some online suggestions and gave it a shot.First use I was blown away. This stuff is easy to apply, spreads nicely, holds really well, and best part is you don't really need a lot to make it work. The scent is also great, smells refreshing and manly. Also it washed off very easily from my hands unlike the American Crew which seemed a bit difficult to remove.Yes it cost more then most products, but you need less and it works great, so it's worth it.

I used Hanz De Fuko a lot and I usually go off based on Amazon review. However, I decided to try Mitch because I kind of don't like how Hanz De Fuko is a bit dry for their paste. I decided to test this product by going to the club and this product is now my new favorite. I mean the paste is much softer than Hanz De Fuko and it doesn't have that weird smell. The smell from Mitch is definitely sandalwood and the hold is amazing will definitely use this product when go to work cause it is what Im looking for. Medium hold and smell great. Definitely gonna replace my previous claymation to this.

I ordered and tried this product based on the great reviews I saw here. This has great hold, but it dries hard, doesn't remain malleable, and gets a little crusty if you try to touch your hair after it's set.Tip: Put in hair while it's damp. This stuff isn't for dry hair unless you want a bad time.Pros:Strong holdMatte finishCons:Does not remain malleable throughout the day for style adjustments or even just running your hands through your hair. If you go very light, then you can sort of break through with your fingers.Acts a bit like a glue in your hair and gets brittle after it dries.To be clear, it's not a bad product and I can see myselfb using it in certain circumstances, but I'm rating it this because it's advertised as staying flexible/adjustable all day which it is not.

Ótimo , gostei

I've used other hair products before to try and get my perfect "swoop". This stuff is great. Doesn't feel thick at all but holds like no other. Can mess around with my hair and it works well to manipulate throughout the day. Highly recommend.

This works well. You need just a little bit at a time.

Causes frizzy hair

Ich hatte Jahre lang das Power Wax von Taft. Vor gut einem Jahr hat mir dann meine Friseurin dieses Produkt hier aufgeschwatzt. Ich bin immer noch entsetzt, wie gut das Zeug ist. Extrem ergiebig, klebt und schmiert kein Bisschen, und hält und hält und hält. Eine ganz andere Liga als Drogerieprodukte.
