Dapper Dan Matt Paste, High Hold Low Shine Hair Paste for Men, Adds Texture with Flexible Hold for All Styles, Vintage Cologne Fragrance, 1 x 100ml

This 3.38 oz paste is a high-hold, low-shine miracle. Tames my wild hair into any style, smells like a vintage cologne dream, and laughs off rain. Flexible, not crunchy—perfect for looking sharp without trying too hard. My cousin’s jealous, but my hair’s unstoppable.

While no product is perfect, this is definitely the best I've found so far. I've been using this for about a week, and that's enough time if you have hair as unruly as mine. I have relatively long hair, and probably use more than most people would, but nothing has ever worked as well to keep my hair straight as this does. I guess that's the caveat: there is no consensus on what really works to keep super kinky hair straight, so this may be unique to my situation. I can attest to the fact that the sheen-or lack thereof-is really natural looking, and doesn't look nearly as greasy as most drugstore products. The scent is mild, but pleasing (I doubt it would be noticeable for anyone more than a few inches away). I think it must be remembered that most pomades should be applied while your hair is damp. That seems to be misunderstood and cause for a lot of complaints. In my case, I wet my hair, dab in a healthy sized amount (maybe a quarter size), comb back (like a slicked back look), let dry, then comb straight. It holds that way pretty much all day. Looks natural and doesn't have the usual look of gel, grease, or most cheaper pomades. If it works for me, I'm sure it would for most. Also, it seems a bit expensive, but 100ml works out to about a third more per tin than something like Axe, so that mitigates the cost somewhat. Really not a bad value at all.

Great scent, very high hold, works well with thin hair.

This is one of the best hair products I have ever used, and that's coming from somebody that has used them since I was 7. The product has a very classy look as far as the packaging goes. It is very high hold with almost no shine at all, and it smells fantastic. Also, one of the biggest selling points for me, is that it does not flake at all. You can play with your hair all you want and you won't get any flakes.My only problem with it is that it must be used on dry or damp hair or it will not hold very strong at all.Great product that I Definately recommend.

Great product

I normally don't use hair products, as I was in the military for 20 years and wearing a hat all the time defeated the purpose of hair products. Now that I'm out, I want to try different hairstyles.To be honest, I wanted to try Dapper Dan because of the movie O, Brother, Where Art Thou? Great marketing tool. However, I also wanted to try it because it's made in England and, quite frankly, European and Japanese products tend to be of higher quality than other items.I am not disappointed. Pomades are known to cause acne in some people, but I haven't had a problem so far. I suspect this is because this product is a paste and not a true pomade. A little goes a long way, but you can always add more if you want more hold or to ensure all your hair is covered, but it's really not necessary.The paste stays in all day but washes out with just water without leaving residue. The matte finish is good for those who don't like a high-shine. It is also flexible in that you can touch your hair and not expect the paste to "break" like gels or similar products.At my current rate of use, I expect a single tin to last several months, so you do get good value for your money.

My husband is a dapper Dan man! He loves this stuff! Not too heavy and smells great!

This is a good product. Don’t get me wrong.I like the smell. It’s not really citrus like it claims, but it smells good. The finish is truly matte with no shine. If you overload one spot, you might see a little sheen, but that’s on you, not the product. Even then, it never turns glossy.That said, I couldn’t give it five stars.First, a very minor thing. I didn’t take off a star for this, but it’s worth mentioning. The tin feels like aluminum, and yes, it bends easily. What happens when aluminum meets impact? Exactly. If you guessed that, here’s your gold star and juice box. During delivery, packages can get bumped around, so don’t be surprised if it shows up with a dent or two.Does that affect the product inside? No. If this is for personal use, you won’t care. If you’re buying this as a gift… good luck. Cross your fingers.Now the real reason I took off two stars.It claims high hold, but it isn’t.Compared to other styling products, this is more like medium, maybe medium-light. It’s not weak, but it’s definitely not high hold. I’ve seen other reviews say the same thing, and they’re right. I’ve been styling my hair in classic and pomade-based looks for years and have used plenty of pomades, pastes, clays, and gels. By those standards, this does not qualify as high hold.If you want a natural matte finish, easy application, and decent control, this is a solid product. Just don’t buy it expecting strong, all-day hold.

Alles bestens

Dobra pomada, mocno trzyma włosy (moje są średniej długości, grubsze i ciężko je ułożyć) i ładnie pachnie. Do tej pory kupowałem Cementową Glinę i Szarą Świnię, ale bardzo możliwe, że zostanę przy tej.

Más o menos

J'ai acheté la cire récemment, je ne connaissais pas la marque. Je suis très satisfait du produit. La cire tient la tenue tout au long de la journée. Elle ne colle pas, ne graisse pas les cheveux et le parfum est très agréable.

I swear by this product and have been using it for years. Great strong hold and good finish
