4 Tips for Buying Hair Clay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Hair Length & Style<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether you have short, medium, or long hair, a hair clay should be able to compliment your hair length without looking greasy.  If you are looking to have a hairstyle that is a bit looser or casual, the matte and natural look of clay is perfect for styling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, if you are starting to exhibit the classic signs of male pattern baldness, hair clay is the perfect styling product for men with thin or fine hair, as it can add volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Hold<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hair clays can come in a variety of holds. A hair clay with a strong hold should be suitable for all-day use.  A hair clay with a light to medium hold will give your hair enough structure without feeling too rigid.  We found that most hair clays tend to have a medium hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Many hair clays often rely on bentonite clay as the primary ingredient that provides the structure or hold. Used as a binding ingredient in various applications, bentonite is sourced from clay or volcanic ash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other ingredients used in hair clay can include beeswax, paraffin, carrier oils, essential oils, and lanolin.  These natural ingredients keep the cuticles on your hair soft and strong while also helping to moisturize and nourish both hair and scalp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Brands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When researching all the varieties of hair clays available to men, you will find that brands can generally be categorized into three primary buckets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
