Hi, I'm your host and I'm here today to look at matte clays and there are certainly some to avoid, but these are the seventh
You have to love the style here with this little skeleton with an Elvis-like coiff here and it looks amazing
And it really is strong clay. It holds my hair up pretty well and I like my hair up
And the advantage here is that it's pretty matte. There isn't any shine at all, which means my hair can be a little bit browner than black, which it gets when I get like a wet
pomade or a gel in there and it actually really smells really good. I think with this in your hair
you almost don't have to wear any cologne or after shave because this already gives off a nice
little scent here. This has a completely matte finish and adds a ton of texture which is perfect
for my short hair and I like it up and to stay up all day. You can also go through my hair
during the day without having to reapply anything. Now if you want to apply this, take out a little and warm that in your hands
Then just rub it across your hands a few times. And then you can apply that all over your hair
You can see I've done my son and myself with this and just just a little bit of product
has left the jar and the rest is still in there. So you only need a tiny bit here
This has one of my favorite smells. So my wife always says she really loves this one
And the cool thing is you can wash this out with almost any shampoo. so it doesn't leave any residue and that leaves you with a blank canvas to sculpt your hair
in any way you want again. It's one of the best matte finishes I've tried. This clay is really
mad. It couldn't be more mad actually and this one also smells quite nice. It's a little bit
more rugged, more manly but this is also very great. Now this one has two out of ten on shine
and eight out of ten on hold so that holds very very well. It's very sturdy
You can mold it into place any way you want it. So just use a little on top and then a little bit extra on the sides and back for my hair
And it's perfect for thin hair like I have or a little bit longer like my sons
As you can see, and the hold on my hair is pretty strong. So this is for like an out of bed look
And this is more like an earthy smell. I only need just a little bit to do your hair
I just did my own and my sons. And I think this is perfect to use on your hair
If you have thin hair, just to get it to stand up. Or like my son, his hair is a little bit longer
And you can really make sure that the hair stays to the side
Now, you just need to warm a little in your hand and then rub that all over your hand
So you can make sure that there's not a big lump somewhere in your hair
Just at one place Now you can wash this off pretty easily with any kind of shampoo So that quite nice and because the smell and the hold I really recommend this to anyone
who wants that mad look. Hi I'm Yost and I'm here today with this shiny gold clay. It's a pretty
shiny clay but it's not overly shiny with like with gels. It's still clay here but not really
mad look and it holds my hair up all day. You can see I've just applied a little here on top
and then a little extra here on the sides. And that's keeping my hair up quite nicely
Now it smells really great. It's like this coconuty smell, a little bit of vanilla maybe
Okay, so this stuff is a little softer than other types of clay. You can see that
It comes out of the tin a little more easily. And you don't have to rub it across your hands as much
So this is a more softer clay and it's a little bit further away from wax than
other types. And what I do to apply this to my hair is just get a little bit out and then
wrap it across my hands, just a little bit to spread it out so you don't get large lumps in one
place. Now the hold on this shine a gold is pretty awesome. And it's a little bit in between
of the uppercut clay and the suavitico. But I do like the smell of this just a little bit better
And I think this is more my style, more of a metro style and less of a rugged type of man's style
great thing about this is it's pretty matte, but not that matte. I have had products that were
a little bit more matte, so it still gives a bit of shine while still being a moldable clay. And
the cool thing is that you can go through your hair during the day, especially with longer hair
like with my sons, and just mold that back into place again. So I really recommend this for
people who want the clay and want a little bit more shine, not that mad look and the ability
to mold this and go through your hair during the day. Hi, I'm Yost and I'm here today with the
right cement clay and it really does its name just as cement and they say here it holds
like wax and washes out like gel so that's pretty much it it smells delicious and you
can also wash this out just with a little shampoo but the hold is amazing it says
mad finish it is a little bit more like a wet finish here and there than some of the
other ones some are more mad and they are more like for a out of bed look or a really
messy kind of hair and this is like a little bit more like the slick look as you can see it's a
little bit more slick here and there than some of the other ones and look is also incredible it has this
nice design with the woman sitting here in like a barber shop setting and the golden gap is amazing
as well so that the first thing that attracted me to this and of course the cement clay that on here and the matte finish which is what I testing right now Some of the products with the best matte finishes Now this one does have an incredible look to it
but it's a little bit more shiny than some of the other matte finishes
So if you want a completely matte finish, then this product maybe isn't the right fit for you
As you can see, you have to scrape a little bit out
and then mold that in your hands. It also smells amazing. It's a little bit like a more
Metro-Man kind of smell, just like with the uppercut brand, where there are also more rugged
type of smells like the Bruzel brand, for example. And I think this one is more like to the
Metro Man kind of side. You can also wear this in your hair and then not using any cologne. I still
smell great all day. Now for my shorter hair, it can give me those nice spikes that I like. And for my
son's hair, which is a little bit longer, I can easily mold this to one side and make a few little
little adjustment to make sure every hair falls in the right place. So I really recommend this for
anyone looking for a meth finish but not really mad and not messy hair, but still a way to
sculpt your hair exactly the way you want it. Hi, I'm Yost and I'm here today with slick gorilla clay
pomade and it really has a strong hold and also a little bit of shine to it. It's like a hard clay
when it comes out of the tin, but it smells and feels more like almost a gel than other clays that
I've used. And this is also not a matte clay, but it does have a really firm hold. This can hold my
hair in place all day, but it's not as good for going with your hands through your hair during the
day and molding it back into place. It doesn't have like a hard texture like with some gels. So it's not
like your hair is getting crispy at all, but it really is more like a shiny pomade
It's a little bit harder than some of the other clays I've tested
You can see, you really have to rub your hands across the surface of this just to get a little
out and it's also very sticky. Now the shine is a little bit more like gel and it also smells a little bit more like a gel
would smell. And so it's a little bit more gel-like than some of the other pomates I've tried, like the
Shana Gold, the Layride or the uppercut deluxe. They're all more like this Metro Man kind of coconut-y vanilla smell
This is more like a regular gel smell. And this is really like a firmhold and wet kind of the look
not a mad and out-of-bed kind of look. So this is not really for making a messy type of hair style
but more like the slick style where every hair is meticulously placed
Now this is also perfect for a little bit longer hair to make that to stand to the side or maybe a slick back look like with my son hair So that can hold in place during the day all day So I really recommend this one for someone who wants a more wet look without like the crunch of a traditional type of hair gel because your hair will taste off with this one
Hi, I'm your host and I'm here with the American crew defining paste and it's a little bit more messy
like an out of bed look and it doesn't have a great big shine to it but it isn't completely
mad as well. So there's a great paste if you want that messy look but not so much if you want to
to have a slick look and every hair placed in exactly the right place the way you want it
This is a bit between a wet gel and a matte clay
It's a defining paste, is what they call it. And it's hard and gooey when it's inside the tin
But once you get it out, it immediately becomes like a wet substance
Way more than like a matte clay. But it still gives a met defining texture
The hold isn't as good as some of the other products I've tested on my short
and thin hair. So it's not that great to hold it up all day, but it does give a nice, mad definition
to the hair, even though the substance is quite wet. I call this perfect for frisk control
and it does give a little shine, but it's also a conditioner and moisturizing cream. I can't get
a pretty good definition here and make the hair stand the way I like it, although the hold
isn't that great. It worked a lot better for my son's hair, which is a little bit longer to
get it to stand to the side and get that to keep in place than to mold your hair in a really
particular way like with my shorter hair. So all and all, this is a great product if you have a
little bit harder hair to work with and to get that into shape the folie way you wanted
instead of a clay or paste that keeps your hair up. Hi, I'm Yost and I'm here today with
Reuselmet clay and it's one of the strongest clays that I've tested and it smells a little bit more like
a medicine than like a pomade and it's a little bit more of a manly smell than some of the
other pomates have tested which have more like a metromans smell which i'm more accustomed to
but it does have a cool matte finish and a very strong hold you can see that on my back
and side so it's not really that messy look it still has a little bit of going to it but
it's a perfect product to get your hair to go exactly in the way you want it without having
like this crunchy texture of a gel. Now this clay is actually a little bit harder and drier than most
So it's pretty dry when you take this out of the tin
Now this is perfect for holding your hair up and it's also perfect for a little bit longer hair
like my sons to get it to stay to the side or have like a messy look and this actually
is pretty mad. So I really recommend this one for people who want a really strong hold all day with a completely
mad look
