all hair is welcome! ideal for shorter styles, braiding, + sleek ponies.

why it's special

keep style on lock! this high hold wax has a buildable formula, and is a go-to when styling short hair, braids, or sleek ponies.

how to use?
get a grip on your style:
  • for piecey waves, take a dime-sized amount into the palm of your hand and rub them together to warm and emulsify the wax. work through hair using your fingers for added definition. ​
  • apply half a pinky fingernail-sized amount of wax to the tips of your fingers before braiding, for a smoother look free of flyaways.
  • for a sleek pony, apply a dime-sized amount of wax onto the hairline and comb through with a dense brush to slick it back. secure with an elastic, then use any excess wax to tame flyaways.
other hair hacks:
  • create clean partings -- run the wax along the part.
  • natural waves: on damp hair, apply wax and loose braid it, let it air dry or diffuse it.
  • on lock brings a softness to spikey pixies while keeping hold.
