Original & Mineral K-Gravel Texture Clay, hands down.
Heyyy robin , couldnt get a reply from you regarding this question asked in one of your previous videos ,should we wear heat protection if we use nioxin thickening gel and then blow dry hair
I absolutely love the Morrocanoil Texture Clay! I came across this brand through your channel. What I also love is their heat protection and mousse products. Fantastic company. I'm definitely going to try out the products you mentioned in the video, as well. Great video! And thank you for introducing me to Morrocanoil!
i decided to chop off most of my hair a couple of years ago and your channel has been so helpful in learning how to style my hair now and what products to use
I’m so glad I can help
That Sheat Revival is such an all rounder. Price, performance, washability, versatility. Can't thank you enough for the recommendation.
I'm totally loving this series, fantastic work Mr. James 👏👏👏
Thank you! I'm new to haircare and in the process of growing it out. I have a few old aerosol mousses that I use only because I have them.
Thanks for the information! I have never used a hair product and I just ordered the Patricks M3.
For me, my favorite hair clays that I am using currently are Cavalier clay by Blumaan, Lockhart’s fire and brimstone version of the hair clay (which only sells during the fall), firsthand supply clay pomade, and Daimon Barber texture clay. These products all behave what a clay behaves like and they all give me great texture.
Great list! The Daimon Barber one is great.
Muk hard styling mud is the best
Moroccanoil Texture Clay is AMAZING.
Smells great and it makes my hair feel so soft and smooth while also adding A LOT of texture
Whew I can buy that one ?
@@galvarado4423 Amazon
Great list, thanks
Hi Robin,
Even I have fine hair type but a bit wavy when it grows out.
I've been using Arcadian Clay Pomade & it works great. Adds a matte finish & Kaolin swells my hair to some extent. Hold is also a medium or say firm.
Haven't used a product with Bentonite in it so planning to buy the Moroccanoil Clay. Hope it has more swelling effect & easy to apply like the Arcadian.
@@dipesh3763 Fine hair. I'm not losing my hair.
I’m crossed between 3. I currently use ocean clay and love the feel, texture and gives a good natural shine to my lighter color hair. Which of these 5 would be close to that? I think you’ve used ocean clay before.
Can u make a video tutorial about styling hair for absolute beginners thx
Thanx for your videos!
@robinjames really admire your channel since 5 years... man I got fine hair what hair clay shall I purchase out of this 5?
You have to try the Oasis Clay from Templeton tonics and odin wax cream.. It'll blow your mind away
Which is the best for hot day when you sweat?
You have to try the OXFORDhill Texture Styling Clay - insane
I love morocconoil texture clay always. It did justice with sea salt spray
Which sea salt spray do you use?
@@Zgredzio homemade sea salt spray
@@SuperVinkumar isn’t that bad for hair because it dries out?
@@gm836 not really
If you have to use something else to make the product work that tells me enough of that product
Respect for making us know how long is sponsor segment. You are making quality content! Good job man :)
Great stuff, Robin. I noticed that some clays you've rated highly in previous videos contain petrolatum/petroleum jelly, but none of the clays you recommend here do do (as far as I could tell in a quick check, I could be wrong) I have read that petrolatum isn't great for the hair and was just wondering if this factored into your decision-making at all. Many thanks.
It’s also linked to skin cancer supposedly
Hairshark is an amazing hair powder for volume and thickness
What are the strongest hold, matte finish products you have tried? I usually use stickmore styling cream, but it is out of stock and I haven’t found anything similar in terms of hold/matte finish to control my thick, wavy hair. I’ve tried Stickmore Clay Fiber, Arcadian Matte Paste, Cavalier Clay.
@ManforHimself at 3:18, may i ask if you remember the hair length you had? This looks EXACTLY what i want for my next haircut and i’m not to sure what to tell the hairstylist.
Also, just discovered your channel and it looks pretty cool. Im not hair savvy at all but with these videos I’m leaning slowly:)
For me its Baxter of California Clay pomade and the Morocconoil texture clay. I find that the Baxter clay gives me perfect combination of slickness, texture and natural shine which I really like and amazing hold. And then when I want to have more "loose hair" with more texture and movement, I use Morocconoil. The only slight drawback from the Morocconoil is that I find it feels slightly dry in the hair especially after e few hours, where the Baxter seem to hold better on the touch and in shape. But for me its the perfect combo. I also like Kevin Murphy, I find that its probably one of the best second day hair products. Like if I have oily hair, nothing can beat Kevin Murphy in dealing with that imo
You should definitely try mixing together Baxter clay pomade with the Moroccan oil texture clay in your hands and applying to your hair together! Let me know how that works out for you!
Baxter was the best till about a year ago. I reckon they have changed the formula, as it now has next to ZERO hold. I've used it for 5 years but the last 2 tubs I've got have been a noticible downgrade which is a real shame, hence why I'm looking at videos like this!
You should try the Dear Barber's mattifier clay
Which one for long thin fine hair with a strong hold
Hey! Greetings
I have been watch your videos since the beginning and I really love them. Could you please help me with choosing the best hair clay for my hair condition? I have soft thin hairs. The volume is less. I do gaming a lot, so after using headphones for so long, my hairs got some intense wave at few surfaces of my hair. I can't fix it no matter what which looks really irritating. I want either to add good volume to my hair, and give them a straight shape,(hold) without those waves. Or I want to backbrash them perfectly (throughout the day).
N B : whenever i try to backbrush my hair, my hairs get wavy and goes different direction when they dry up.
And I prefer non oily clay! Thank you so much.
hi Robin😊 i just discovered your beautiful channel ... could you tell me what the difference is between silver Fox by vilain and blumaan cavalier hair wax? I have tried all the waxes of the brand by vilain except blumaan so I ask you ... in your opinion between blumaan and by vilain who wins?
I have relatively flat hair that is fairly long and I’m getting into styling it at 18 and I was wondering if layrite cement clay is good or not because I’ve heard good things about it and I kinda want to try a look where the side of my hair doesn’t poof or like poke out
Hi. I used to use Revlon "Creator Matt Clay" a lot. However Revlon has discontinued it and its replacement is called "Matt Clay" (its a pink jar now). But the formula is completely different and now it feels weak and as generic as any other hair clay. What I really liked about it was that it left my hair with a "dry and sandy like" texture and sensation with good hold from the moment I applied it to my hair, even if it was damp. Its been years now and I cant find a similar replacement. I have tried products like Calymation and Baxter Clay Pomade, but all of them feel smooth and more wet. Does anyone have any similar product suggestions?
i rarely used clay and my shear revival product has been there for about 2 years, it dries and feels different from the first time i use it. how you preserve hair product and is it safe for use after along time? you have alot of hair product, have you? 🤔
For my hair, my favorite at the moment is American Hardens (Shear Revival). I’ve not used the first three clays listed in this video, I’ve struggled to find certain Alexa products here in the states and the Kevin Murphy and M3 aren’t necessarily out of my price range but they are more than I’m willing to spend on a clay when I get fantastic results with both Shear Revival and Morroccanoil. But in my experience, the American gardens makes my hair look the thickest (I have very fine hair) and the morrocanoil has just a bit more shine (still a matte product though) than the American Gardens does, so while I’d recommend both, for me, American Gardens could trick someone into thinking my hair is actually thick, it’s definitely more dense and textured to the touch than the morroccanoil, which is more similar in texture to Shear Revival’s Northern Lights paste
What about the hold? I also have thin hair and am thinking about buying the American Gardens, but the only thing i'm afraid is the hold, since i've seen people saying it has a really strong hold but also have seen people saying it doesn't hold well.
@@Rat0713 I’d say it’s a nice medium hold, so just for some context, I usually have to do a lot of bending over for my job, so if I just use American Gardens in my hair, by the end of a work day my hair is coming forward, and I might have some strands falling off the sides because of all the bending forward. I will also say that it feels very light in the hair even though it is quite a dry clay (but not the driest out there). If you want to maximize its hold so the hair isn’t moving at all, I’d pair it with a hairspray.
I also have some quite u duly cowlicks though, so I have to spend some extra time blow drying them so that the hair doesn’t fall back in their pattern later in the day, I even have one in the front of my head, if you don’t have too many unruly cowlicks to tame, American Gardens should do the trick, and because it is surprisingly light in the hair, don’t be afraid to add more product if you want more hold.
In conclusion, I’d say for best hold for American gardens, use a good pre-styler (whatever would work best for the style you’re going for), blow dry your hair as best you can into the exact style you want, apply American Gardens, and If you want to guarantee that style won’t move or change, finish with hair spray, hope this helps!
Please review shehvoo pomade! Would love to get ur opinion
What should I use to keep my hair straight? My hair are completely straight when out of shower but curl up when dry.
What do you use on wet hair to boost volume or is that done with the volume sprays?
Blu Maan Cavalier Clay is the best!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wondering if you might give Lockhart's Trancend Wax/Clay a try, it's one of those really interesting products that you just can't seem to find the reviews for on youtube anyway. I went ahead and ordered some myself but I'd love to hear you thoughts on it someday!
wonder when the Davines molding clay review will up? I think this clay very great for fine hair as well.
+
love your videos mate! I am searching for a good clay product, parabene and sulfate free and that has a good hold. I tried Aveda clay but to be honest not so satisfied with it.
What’s a good one for a messy look ?
Aveda smells great. Vetiver and spearmint what’s not to like?
I am using bed head matte separation. Any substitute for the above wax ?
What's the best non-sticky hair product for taming and conditioning hair? My hair gets thick, wavy ,and cowlicky when it grows out a little, and I'd like a product that tames it a little without adding any stickiness or too much control. I tried my friend's Jack Henry Clay Pomade and liked it but wanted to try something else due to some negative things I read about the owner's business ethics. I tried the Moroccanoil Texture Clay but it's kind of sticky
Hey Robin, its the Irish guy you met in Victoria park the other week. Just saying hello and hope I didn't freak you out haha 👋
Does your hair have to be dry to use a clay or can you put it in damp hair?
Ive never really looked into hair products i cant find at the store.
Ive tried pomades and they’re way to shiny. I have dirty blonde hair it it just makes it look oily.
I found a paste I like at a local store in my rural area but this is my first time looking at clays.
Anyone have any advice on clays vs paste for lighter color hair?
I started looking this up because i saw an ad for jack henry clay that said it gave a more matte finish.
Do we have to wash it off before bed everyday with water or shampoo?
Hey bro give a review on moroccan oil hair mousse
hey bro can you pls tell me the best product to get wavy hair i save super straight
have u tried Brickel products
Morris motley for top 6 😍
some nice choices but for me its definitely missing morris motley styling balm!
I use hair clay but I often get the problem where hair towards my forehead doesn't stick with the rest of my hair and does its own thing. How do I fix that?
Moroccanoil texture clay is incredible
can Hanz De Fuko Quicksand replace the above clays?
Moroccanoil is best of the best! I love it!
Hi Robin can u do moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream Please i want to see if its worth the Price
Hey Robin, what about Hanz de fuko Clay? I saw your video on products to use for thinning hair and bought the products you mentioned - Nioxin Shampoo and conditioner, Nioxin thickening spray and Hanz de Fuko clay.
What’s the best product for volume and hold
Top 5 matte paste please
What about Hanz De Fukl Claymation? I have short thick hair at the moment and love the clay I use!
Claymation is fantastic and the new formula is even better. Still one of the best out there
Hi Robin, love your videos. I have really thick straight blonde hair, I tried Hanz de Fuko and find it can look a little greasy, or just doesn’t hold enough if I use less to make it look more matte.
What do you recommend as a good medium for both hold and matte? I’ve been considering a powder or matte fibre, what do you reckon?
I think you should use even less of claymation.. Because that's one thing I recently found out with claymation, you only need so little of it to achieve really good hold. I don't even scoop, I just rub my finger on the surface and layering it maybe 3 times. With other products like Moroccanoil and pastes like Night Rider or Northern Lights I have to use big scoops to achieve anything, and the more I touches my hair through out the day the more those products disappears in my hair. With claymation it's the opposite, the more I touch my hair the better the hold gets through out the day.
@@Filip_111 thanks mate. I did actually give cavalier clay a go and it was exactly what I was looking for. A bit drier, better hold and looks more matte. Definitely recommend giving it a go if you haven’t already!
@@TheRealRyan1 Alright! I actually think the finish on claymation is perfect for me. I want a slight gloss to it, not shiny by any means but not super dry either. And honestly I like that it doesn't have any scent either.
What's your favorite type of prestyler when using Moroccan oil texture clay? Or do you use multiple prestylers when using it? I have fine hair as well. This channel is incredible btw!
In past videos, Robin highly recommends Aveda Thickening Tonic. I also have fine hair and use both the clay and tonic, but find the tonic amazing! You should definitely check it out.
@@1MrJJT thx or the input. I have been debating on bumble and bumble thickening spray or the aveda one. I think im going to try both lol
@@1MrJJT oh also, does the aveda one add any extra hold to the moroccan clay?
@@theelusivememe1772 Yes, it does. In fact most days I just use the thickening spray, as it really helps.
Why is Morris Motley's Strong Matte Styling Balm not on here?
Hey plzz robin suggest me i'am little bit confused due to thinning and silky hair plz do suggest me good one 👍😊☺
Hello robin, you got any recommendation for some budget clay? I’m a college student that can’t spend much on hair product but want to still look good when college open back up :D
American crew is good
Is there a way to fix the clay if it's dried out?
I’m always hoping my clay might make it to one of these one day :)
+++
Gotta try it robin
Your clay is by far my favorite styling product
Would love to see robin review the whole line. My personal favorites are the sea salt spray and the styling balm but the clay is amazing as well
^^^
God bless you Robin 🙏🏼
I want update video about Top 5 clay
This video couldn't be more on time for me, huge thanks and keep up the good work.
Also maybe you'll consider refreshing your "how to make hairstyle?" videos?
5:12 you say that it's bentonite clay that swells the hair but I just watched one of your videos right before this one when you review salon guy clutch clay and you said that it's kaolin that swells the hair... So which one is it??
I believe they both do, but bentonite is more known for it.
I’ve tried the majority of these products especially M3. It’s greasy and doesn’t have any hold in my opinion. I have thick hair and hanz De Fuko is still my go to product. I’m surprised that wasn’t in your top 5
Same! I have thick, coarse hair and Claymation is still my go to - the new formula has petrolatum as the first ingredient so its slightly easier to work through, but still styles brilliantly.
@@nialahmad ahh I didn't know they reformulated. im looking for a thicker heavier hold matte clay next
Me too, hanz de fuko still the brand that I very very love especially for gravity paste and claymation
Can I use claymation if I have thin to fine hair ?
@@abrahamg2293 yeah definitely it’s for all hair types. Just use less and really warm it in your hands first before applying. Use light gentle pressure and maybe a hair dryer to set it how you want first
Hi Robin, any recommendation for Asian hair?
He's not Asian so I don't think he can really tell you...
HELP!! I have thick hair that im trying to push back (like slip back but not clean look with a comb, more slightly messy). Struggling to find a product that will hold it back without it popping up and creating a large pompadour sort of look after a few hours. Preferably want a product i can rework through the day so it doesn't set solid (but will accept this if this is the only thing that will do it). Anyone got recommendations of products that may work? Thanks in advance!
I love Kevin murphy ❤
Whatzup Robin? You know what, recently remembered you. Went to my hairdresser, who is really good at coloring, she feels the tones like nobody does and styling....buuuut she's quite useless at cutting...well, in a nutshell having my hair in ponytail now after her cut 😭😭😭
Hi, Robin. What’s The best water-based clay for hold the hair? What’s the most strong one?
I need to know too. Oil based don’t easily wash out and when it finally does it dries and damages my hair! Did you find one?
@@FinalBoss429 not yet
Just read that Daimon Barber Texture Clay is water based and easily washed out. I’ve not tried this one yet but I’m also fed up with oil based styling products! I had Baxter’s Cream Pomade delivered yesterday giving that a go
Any vegan or clean ingredient clays?
Please review Dick Johnson Fibre Wax Insouciant , will ya?
I have used all 5 and no one would be in my top5 so different is taste 🥳
Absolutely! I like hearing other people’s favourites. What’s yours?
@@ManForHimself Davines Clay, Ivr Brews AnarClay, Templeton Tonics Oasis Clay, Lodestar Canyon Clay
Thanks a lot for the Videos, helped me out a lot and will try 2 Products you recommended :)
Which kind of clay (and maybe even prestyler) would you recommend for someone who is experiencing hairloss and thinning hair in combination with sweating like a lot? So kind of something which is healthy for my hair but also still holds its style when i am doing sports
Some of those close ups show your dandruff. What do you recommend for that😂
what hairspray do you recommend for fine hair?
if you check out salon guys hair spray, it totally changed the texture of mine and made my hair look great
Hello. I'm 23 and I have fine hair. I can see my scalp easily when I run my fingers through my hair. I was searching for a solution and I found your channel. I wanted to ask a question about Nioxin system 1 and 2. It says progressed thinning on system 2 but I don't think my hair density is too bad but I have hair loss. When I take a shower and use shampoo and conditioner I've got so much hair on my hands and long ones too so I don't know what to do about that. Also I moved to Japan 2 years ago and after I moved little pimples started to appear on my skull. It itches and they do not go away they don't heal I don't understand why. So I wasn't sure which one to buy. This kills my self confidence because my hair doesn't look alive it looks dead. I'm sorry I wrote too much. Plss help me...
When you have hairloss you should be considering taking finasteride and minoxidil, Ive been doing so and thats the only effective treatment.
For the pimples on your head I would google "nizoral shampoo".
Change your diet and drink more water.
You should eat vitamin D , it will help you grow new hair
Can someone compare MO vs Aveda clays?
Dominate is good for short hair because it's non greasy and doesn't make your scalp shiny
What would the best product be for a high hold with a shine (non Matt finish)?
Alright. This is my first comment here. First of all, I really appreciate what you're doing here Robin. Thank you. So much.
Now to this problem of mine, it'd really help if you understood this because, I can't.
I got this (silky?) Straight Hair which do not curve at all. They always drop to the front no matter how much I try to push them to the side naturally. I've barely used a hair product and am not knowledgeable enough about it.
I hate my hair tinkling my forehead and I need something to keep it away.
Robin, please. What do you think can help me?
They key is to add some grit to the hair.
My best recommendation is to start with some sort of texture or sea salt spray. Blow dry your hair how you want it and then finish with either a matte paste or a clay. This video is great for clay suggestions.
@@StrappingYoungLadam Thanks for replying! I have ordered a clay. Will try it out.
@@AbdulMalik999 Mind if I ask which one?
@@StrappingYoungLadam Nothing from the list Robin suggested. I've found a local yet trusted company at my side (India) and I've decided to give it a shot.
@@AbdulMalik999 Awesome. Hope it works for you
Hows hanz de fuko Quicksand ?
I have a don Juan hair clay , it's quite hard to apply it on my hair , it's sticky and everytime I use it it pulls my hair and I end up with many hairs on my hands . What is the best way to apply it ?
Which clay do you have? I have the styling clay and if you use very little water in your hair before it helps with applying and still holds without losing anything from the clay
@@DrownInAPuddle I have that one too but I find it hard to apply because it pulls my hairs a lot . When applying water before it might be smother to apply
@@dancolombian1036 yes that's what I'm saying, give it a try! Works for me
I love Patrick m3, robin
No Hanz De Fuko anymore??
Any new hair style you thinking of.. Going shorter.. Or grow but longer again??
Moroccan oil is definitely one of the best
After all these years you still haven't made a video with the best hair clay of all time, Muk hard styling mud...it's called mud but it's actually a matte clay
As a person who tested well over 400 different hair products and try many of the same ones you have and probably many of the ones you haven’t I disagree I think that 4 or 5 of those clays are more of a matte natural finish not format I would say the only one that really is a full match finish is going to be the MoroccanOil Texture clay
Format, full match?
Please review and edit your comment. I understand what you said but most people won't.
Cool story. Now go make some videos. For now, I'll stick to Robin for credibility.
Do any of these clay flake ?
Clays don’t usually flake unless it’s your scalp flaking aka dandruff
Im wondering whats the best oil based hair clay without bentonite. I have pin straight coarse asian hair. Water based mess up the foundation of my style, anything other then clay is too shiny to my taste, pomade or gel makes my hair way too spiky and unpliable, super strong hold products and wax based tend to somewhat cure which takes away the malleability and bentonite would make my hair too voluminous.
Go bald
@@holdenbaldassi3697 lol jokes aside any suggestions?
