Baxter of California Clay Pomade Firm Hold / Matte Finish Hair Pomade for Men and Women, Perfect for Texturizing Straight or Wavy Hair - 2 Ounces

This product is of excellent quality and delivers what it promises. It guarantees a very strong hold for the hair. The finish is, as promised, matte. The hair doesn’t shine, it just looks smooth and healthy.It’s true that applying the product can be very difficult. It’s very firm and thick. You need to warm it up well beforehand. You can take a SMALL (!) amount into your hand and simply warm it up using a hairdryer ;) And don’t put it in wet hair.I have very thick, medium to long hair.The hairstyle lasts all day. You can also easily restyle it with your fingers during the day, no problem.And yes, it washes out easily with shampoo. No problem at all.

I recieved one of these as a gift from a friend so I tried it out and liked it so much I started using it regularly. I was glad to find ut on Amazon and a good price. It's very easy to use and it doesn't take much so the jar lasts quite awhile. This pomade has great hold for styling without making your hair stiff. It also makes your hair very healthy looking and shiny. It holds up well throughout the day and is easy to wash out. I highly recommend this product!

Very good, there is no too much shine, leaves hair soft and with good texture. There is no scent which I think is great.its functional and you do not need to use a lot so it last for a while.Not sure how it works in terms of hair type but my husband has thick/medium.I do his hair and it hold good.

First off, mair hair texture is straight and a little fine, but I have a lot of it (meaning it appears very thick); think Johnny Depp type of hair. So if you have my hair type, I can say this product will for sure work for you.A great matte finish, strong hold product. Best styling clay I’ve tried so far!!BUT! Because it is so strong it can leave the hair feeling oily after several hours of wear do to the combining of your scalps build up of oils throughout the day and the wax in the product. This is a product you have to wash out each night with shampoo. This is how most super strong hold products are though!! ESPECIALLY clay. Nothing to worry about, just the way clay and a lot of waxes are. If that bothers you look for water-based products rather than wax based. But keep in mind those natural waxes are good for your hair! When I come across a clay that somehow manages to come up with the magic that is super strong and washes out easy I’ll give it a five star, I know it’s out there somewhere.Conclusion!! Worth it, I’ve been hooked on it for about 6 months now, great product. Two thumbs up for Baxter.

I have avg grey hair with slight wave. Half a thumbnail is all I need after I shower. I rub it in my palms, apply, brush through, and have a great non-sticky, non-greasy, soft hold that keeps my hair where I want. It's beeswax & clay, so it can build up slightly, but never greasy/oily, and an extra shampooing easily gets it all out if needed. I'm cheap, but don't mind paying for this. I first ordered Aug 2024. Just bought my second jar today April 2025. If you want beeswax and clay they are the first two ingredients listed. 👍🏻👍🏻[FWIW, I tried a different brand's tobacco vanilla stuff (smells nice) but it was sticky, lost it's hold, and left my hair poofy. ]

I have thick silky medium length black hair and I usually style my hair against its natural direction. I need a product with a strong hold and Clay Pomade by Baxter of California is one of the strongest hold product out there. One has to understand that most hair products behave differently in different temperatures. I live in North East where is hot and humid during the summer and cold and dry during the winter. The behavior of this product changes consistency with change in weather.Winter:Hard to scoop from the jar and you need to put in some effort to warm up the product on your plans before you can apply. I sometimes use the blow dryer to warm it.Once in your hair, It provides a very strong hold with low shine and lasts well beyond 10 hrs since the outside temperatures keep it firm.Summer:Easy to scoop and warms us easily on your palm. Applies easily on your hair.Looses hold within 3 to 4 hours.Trying to restyle with damp hands just results in the product washing off.Now the BIGGEST problem. Its a problem I face but might not be an issue with other.The product washes off easily and during the summer months it mixes with sweat and trickles down my forehead clogging my pores and resulting in terrible Acne. I started using another product and I was acne free for over 2 years. Since I liked the finish and smell of the product I decided to give it another try and my Acne is back again.This may not be a problem for everyone but buyer BEWARE.As I mentioned, these products react significantly to temperature changes.
