Natural Beeswax Paste | Matte Hair Product for Men & Women | HIgh Hold & No Shine | Water Based - Easy To Wash | 2oz

I really like this product. I've only used it for a few days but already I'm a fan. I'm not very keen on paying 20$ for only 2 ounces, but this is the best wax I've yet used (in all fairness, I haven't tried more than maybe 3 waxes, but still). PROS: 1. a little goes a long way. i have hair maybe 7 inches long on top, from front to back (shorter as it goes back) (hair type: straight, thick) and I'm maybe only using a quarters sized dab for the hold that i need to get me through the day. 2. great hold (i'd rate it 7.5 out of 10). i don't use this as a pre-styler (for that, I use volumizing mousse) but rather i use it as a finishing product, into completely dry hair (achieved with a blowdryer). 3. you hairstyle can be adjusted throughout the day - the hold remains strong, and it's easy to run your fingers through your hair without tugging or feeling weighed down. (for the most part) ---as a side note to this, i work as a vet tech, and i do a lot of bending, leaning, positioning myself in ways that means my hair might fall out of place - the hold of this product isn't on the level of hairspray or gel, but the tradeoff is that your hair remains feeling light and natural and workable, and can be put back into place with effective hold. gel and hairspray gives you crunchy/crispy feeling hair and that's not what i'm after. 4. the smell. my god, this stuff smells so good. this product smells to me like vanilla icecream or yogurt. vanilla for sure, but to me it has to be some kind of creamy, dairy infused vanilla scent. anyways it's amazing, and i think a lot of people would enjoy the smell of it. CONS: 1. applying it into blow-dried hair is easy enough, but you will experience some tugging and drag as you work it in. this is only a con if this is how you apply it. i didn't care for it as a pre-styler (I found it didn't give my hair as much volume as i wanted) and as a water soluble product, i feel that applying it into damp hair gives you a weaker hold than what is intended. 2. i wish the jar was a little bit bigger for 20 dollars. i'm not sure how long this will last me, but at the rate i'm going through it (using a little bit of it every day), i'd say it'll last a month, maybe? i'll try to remember to update this review when i run out of it. 3. it takes some time for the wax to 'set'. after applying it, your hair will feel a bit clumpy or weighed down, but as you brush or finger-comb it into place, your hair will feel lighter and less 'full of product'. at this point you can then run your fingers through it and re-position or style it as you want. 4. you may experience some tugging or resistance when re-styling well after the product has 'set' and your day has gone on. i'm not sure if this is because my personal regiment needs adjusting or i need to add different products/change quantities, but i've felt some substantial resistance on a few occasions. however this is far from a deal breaker for me because it's only in certain areas where i might feel a snag - for the most part, it's easy to run my fingers through. 5. this isn't a product specific con, but in general - it's going to take some experimentation to find out what works for you and how to most effectively use the product to get what results you want. this is often dictated by other parts of your hair care regiment (what shampoos/conditioners you use, how often you shampoo/condition, what other products do you use as pre-stylers (mousse, oil, texture paste/powder, etc). overall i recommend this product. it might not work so good for people with curly hair. it gives me the hold i need and i'm able to keep my hairstyle up throughout the day with a nice, subtle shine and great smell that won't quit until after i've clocked out.

So far, my favorite product. Getting it out of the container is similar to other hard waxes. For those that have not tried hard pastes/waxes before, this will come a little surprising. On the instructions printed on the container, it hints towards this when it mentions to "work vigorously" into hands. On that note, you have to manhandle this stuff. This isn't a con; it's an instruction. Pretend you're making fire with your hands for a second. Rub that sh*t together like you have a pair. It has the right amount of hold for what I want. It doesn't have hormonal teenager stiff gel hold. It doesn't have Wayne Static spiking hold. It holds the general shape and volume and adds some texture good for pompadour or similar hairstyles. You can play with it throughout the day without losing much effectiveness. Water-soluble, so it doesn't hold up incredibly well after getting drenched in the rain, but who gives a sh*t. If you do: buy an umbrella. It's not easy to get completely out of your hair in one sitting. Who cares? The residuals are not going to affect you. You shouldn't be treating your hair like your laundry anyway. Your girlfriend/boyfriend/mother might care about skidmarks left in your briefs or white stains in your socks, but no one's going to be having a pained conversation with you about hair product residuals. You won't even notice after you dry your hair anyway. Side note: I'm not joking, stop trying to get every microscopic bit of oils and hair product out of your hair. You'll ruin it. Shampoo is serious sh*t. A jar won't last as long as a hard wax would, so the price isn't as appealing, but it certainly isn't a deal-breaker. I'd say price is fair. (currently $20/2 oz) To conclude: Medium hold, barely any extra shine, withstands the day sans rain, cost-effective enough, women love it, smell makes me hungry.

This was my go to for years, but the formula changed in Fall 2025. The product used to be truly perfect in all ways: texture, hold, finish, scent. The overall experience of using it was a joy! It’s not like they just tweaked the product and downgraded slightly. They actually make each and every aspect of this product bad. It’s truly remarkable. There are no longer any redeeming qualities of this product. It’s now super easy to find a better product. I’m not trying to bash Mister Pompadour, I’m just sad.

I think most of the reviews on here say as much as needs to be said. With good pictures to support. But I just tried this today, chose this because the Moroccan texture paste wasn’t available. First thing- the smell is amazing. Mr. Pompadour products have a very very strong scent no matter which one you get. Fireball straight up smells like fireball mixed with big red and hot tamales. Which defeats the smell of any cologne or shampoo you use. This however is a sweeter creamier smell like vanilla, and more subtle. Second- the texture. It is definitely a hard clay waxy texture rather than a paste, in my opinion... best method is to take smaller amounts and work them into dry hands very very vigorously, then add a little more. It took me a while to figure it out at first and I’m sure it’ll get easier, and I think it’s worth it. It doesn’t give your hair that crunchy feel that some products do, it stays soft, but in place. I’m only giving 4 stars instead of 5 because it would be nice to be a little easier to work into the hands.

Love this product. Works very well, has high hold and a matte finish—I was never a fan of the products that leave your hair shiny. My only concern is the price, I wish it was less expensive. But still overall I have bought this product several times and I definitely think it is worth it and would recommend it.

Update July 2023: The scent associated with this line of hair product changed a few years ago, and I couldn't be happier with the decision. Instead of a heavy floral odor, the product has a light, pleasing chocolate aroma. I don't always smell it, but when I do, it's actually enjoyable. This product does a great job styling my now shorter hair. I don't have any suggestions for improvement. This is a great hair product I hope they continue to make for a very long time. Initial Review: I was eager to try this hair product because the branding was classy, and the description sounded like something I could use to hold my hair in place for most of the day. After trying it out using various quantities of the paste, I ultimately had to come to grips with the fact that this product wasn't going to live up to my expectations. To be fair I have very thick, fairly long (4-6 inches), wavy hair so keeping it under control is no simple task. Perhaps others will consider this product a perfect fit. Here is a list of the pros and cons from my perspective: Pros: - flat, pliable finish (not a lot of added sheen and it doesn't crust over once it sets) - decent price and cool branding Cons: - The hold was not sufficient for my hair and once it gave out, which it did in about an hour, it lost most of its staying power. I had to constantly keep the hair from falling into my forehead. - The smell was very unpleasant for me as it reminded me of a gross girl's perfume. It has an obnoxious citrus, floral scent which might be perfect for some, but I enjoy a spicier, cleaner smell to my hair products. - The paste did little to tame my thick hair which resulted in a more matted down puffy look than I would prefer Ultimately, this product may be right for some, but it was a bust for me. I ended up trying the Zeus Firm Hold Pomade and it has much better holding power and control for about the same price.

Top line: Could be a great product for certain hair types; I've seen similar results from other products at less than half the price. Good: Nice hold. Fantastic smell. TSA approved size (lol). Will wash out with shampoo and a good scrub, or will stick around a few days if you're more of a occasional washer. Bad: Simply have not seen the results promised in the ad material. It may work great on straight, easily pliable hair. My wavy hair busts through it without too much trouble short of using double the recommended amount. I've seen similar results through other products (yes, sigh, even Axe Messy Look). The best results I've had have actually not been through blow drying first, but instead apply to slightly damp hair, styling, then drying. That will usually hold most of the day. Other: The expense knocks this down from 4 to 3. I expected a little better for the price; however, this could still be the holy grail for you based on your hair type--give it a shot!

I wanted to find something more naturally sourced to replace the Imperial Classic Pomade I had been using for a while. The main qualities I wanted were a matte finish and a strong hold. This beeswax paste was the perfect replacement. Be forewarned that the paste is very thick but smooths out quickly once you spread it on your hands. It also has a scent of vanilla, which I personally like. I would say the hold is about as strong as you can get and as such it takes a bit longer to work through my (thick) hair before it is evenly distributed. The hold stays right all day even though I often run my hands through my hair, but the paste washes out with ease in the shower. The matte finish is great, just how I like it. The container isn't particularly large, but I haven't had it long enough to know how many uses i'll get out of it. I'm thinking around 2-3 months of daily use at most. This is also a company based out of NC, which I didn't know until I saw the container. Happy to support a local company from my home state.

I was skeptical about the authenticity of this product but because I have been using Amazon for a long time now. I decided to buy this. I came to know about this product from YouTube and I tried their site to order this but they don't deliver to India so after waiting for so many months finally I saw this on amazon and I ordered it. Just received it today and it smells super good. Matt finish and high hold but it's a kinda hold u can play with and manage. Gives great texture to your hair. Delivery was before the expected date and this product comes in a glass jar. Paraben free and made up of all the good organic ingredients. It is costly no doubt but buy this rather than buying any other product. Thank you Amazon Thank you Mister pompadour

I just love this product so much.This is my first hair product ever used!!! This product is amazing. I have thin hair which is bad. But when I used this product, I felt some thickness in the hair which is awesome. It has great hold and natural matte finish.This product impressed me at the very first time. I strongly recommend this product and works absolutely fantastic!!!

Smells like VANILLA SCENTED CANDLE not Citrus like advertised. 😠

The product is good no doubt but, it's slightly on the expensive side considering the quantity. One bottle lasts roughly around 2 months. The hold seems to go away after a while but, I believe that's more go to do with the hot and humid climate rather than the product.

Don't buy this , my personal experience, this is a real waste of money. Not worth to buy. This makes hair even more.dry and hair turning white as well. Not a natural product I guess. Consumers buy this at ur own risk. Not working as well.
