Haircare Dry Ultra Matte Styling Paste, Strong Hold Paste - 3.4oz

Use it everyday hold great and no shine

Hold is great. Easy to emulsify in your hands and spread through your hair. Great for fine or thin hair. The scent though is weird. It isn’t a strong citrus scent like I hoped. It wants to be citrus but I can’t figure out what it is. The scent goes away though.

I used to use American Crew's Fiber to style my hair. That said, I will probably be permanently switching to Dry Muk. The hold is better than Fiber's, the paste is much less waxy and can be easily washed off your hands/hair, the smell is very nice and appealing. Overall, Muk just beats out Fiber in basically every way. So glad I found this product, if only I could find a store retailed in the US that sells it.

I have tried numerous hairstyling products over the years, but this is the only one that works for my fine hair. Every other product of this type, has too much oil (or something), that ends up flattening the style after an hour of use. I've been using this for several years, and any time I try something new, it ends up in the trash. Love this stuff!

Great hold! I really like this for hair 3"- 5" long. It is not particularly greasy or shiny which for me was a big plus. Like many styling pastes it takes a few tries to find the right amount to apply to your hair. I did find it strange that it was made in China, for some reason this makes me uneasy about what the product may contain in it. That said I still love it, I just was my hands after handling it.

I was originally going to give this a low review, as it doesn't really describe how to properly apply this product, and as a result, I was getting a very, very poor hold. I typically brush my hair back and to the side, but with the original way I was applying it, that would last maybe an hour at best. The proper way for you to apply this product is best described as "roughing up your hair." After rubbing it between your hands to warm it up, run your hands through your hair from front to back, then back to front, and then just mess up your hair by running your hands in different directions. The resulting hold is very strong and should last you pretty much all day. The reason I'm taking off a star, aside from not properly describing how to use the product, is sort of for a few reasons. First, the smell is like that of glue with maybe a hint of flowers. It smells pretty bad in my opinion. Other pastes/waxes that I've used had a much nicer scent to them. Second, while the hold is nice if you use it properly, your hair immediately gets a bit resistant to movement, and you might need to brush pretty hard to get it into place. Probably not great for your hair. Perhaps this would be easier if you also used a hair dryer to further soften the product, but without it, you might not have a good time. Still, I regularly achieved an all day hold with both longer (~5") and very short hair length (~1-2"), so I can't fault the product too much.

Muk's haircare products are vastly underrated. I found out about Muk haircare products through my barber, who uses Muk's impressive line of hair styling pastes for all of his client's different kinds of hairstyles. I've tried plenty of other hair styling paste products - from American Crew to Dove to Axe - but no other hair styling product has ever come close to providing the kind of quality, control, and style that Muk provides. I'll be brutally honest here: I didn't use Muk for months because of how expensive I thought it was going to be. I automatically assumed that for a product this great that the price must be outrageously high. When I found out that a 3.4 oz container of Muk was available on Amazon for less than $15 - while ALSO being "Prime eligible" - I instantly ordered a container without thinking twice. I use the "strong hold" hair styling paste to obtain a natural, matte look with my disconnected undercut. The amount of hold that I am able to achieve with such a minimal amount of shine is simply remarkable. What's perhaps most impressive, however, is the small amount of product that you need to use in order to style your hair. I found that a large pea-sized amount of this paste is sometimes all you need the job done, allowing this 3.4 oz container to last at least a month or two's time before I need to [happily] reorder. You could spend hundreds of dollars per year on other over-hyped, under-delivering hair styling products, or you could purchase a container of Muk and see for yourself the vast difference in quality for a fraction of the price!

Great Product that has a decent hold and leaves hair looking natural. The one draw-back is that it does not work as well with longer hair, especially with long bangs. I style my bangs upwards, and when they are on the longer side, this product doesn't do the best job of keeping them in place.

Very good quality

Dried very quickly and made my hair hard sticky and crusty. Not for me.

Die grüne Version von muk finde ich für mein Haar besser geeignet, da es für feines Haar etwas zu fest ist. Ansonsten bin ich zufrieden

Very good quality

I've bought this for years there is nothing as good that is Matt and is a strong hold
